Product Description: It begins here! The saga that literally remade the Marvel Universe of the 1990s is collected in chronological order across four volumes! The psionic force of nature known only as Onslaught sprang forth from the fractured psyche of mutant mentor Charles Xavier and the genetic terrorist called Magneto. Powered by his progenitors' rage, Onslaught laid siege to humanity - touching off a catalysmic conflict destined to deprive a world of its most revered icons! Collects X-Men #53-54, Uncanny X-Men #334-335, Avengers #400-401, Onslaught: X-Men, X-Man #18, X-Force #57, Cable #34 and Incredible Hulk #444.

This is a prime example of why people left comics. Publishers thought they could publish terrible art with writing lacking any substance and people would buy it, regardless.
Yes, there is always mediocre comics published today, but they are not as plentiful as back in the '90's.
This story and artwork hurt my stomach and heart, for I love comics. Do yourselves a favor and read Mike Carey's X-Men or Ed Brubaker's Uncanny X-Men.

Great read. This represents why comics were more creative and fun just a few years ago in the 90s in comparison to the overwhelmingly maudlin nostalgia fad that is currently dragging comic down to the creative depths (especially over at D(ullC comics, home of the mid life crisis of infinite reruns.

Here is the first of 4 X-Men books, chronicling the Onslaught Saga from the late 90's. Many people will praise it. Many people will hate it. This is one of the those books that marked the beginning of a downward trend for Marvel.
I grew up in the 80's/90's. I was in Elementary school when the X-Men cartoon first aired. To me and my generation, that was our X-Men. We bought the toys, watched the show, read comics like "X-Cutioner's Song" and loved every minute of it. I think Onslaught ... Read More

This is the first book about Onslaught treat, I think that the art is really great, and they try to resume the story because this crossover is too huge that involves all the X-men, avengers, spiderman and hulk, they resume all this books and describe you only the important facts that happens in other books (only a page) and of course that makes this collection more easy to read and less expensive. In this book begins the fighting with this monster. I can't wait to read the other 3 parts.

This story arc came out when I was a teenager, and it was right after I had my first serious experiences in reading comics. I've always loved Marvel, and got caught up in this story line to the point of near obsession. Unfortunately, due to personal circumstance I was never able to find out the resolution to the story arc, and subsequently never followed back to comics as a whole until just recently. I had been reading wikipedia articles about the Marvel universe, and really wanted to immerse myself ... Read More
