Great bargin
A massive, inexpensive volume collecting over 500 pages of classic full color comics and includes early cross-over issues and the essential Magik miniseries. The New Mutant stories are gorgeous and heart-felt. I would recommend this to any X-Men or bronze-era comic fan.

love all the story lines
I remember reading these as they were published it was fun to see them all again. While it isn’t the same as owning the originals it warms my heart to know that new readers can enjoy them now as well

Eclectic and obscene
Very eclectic in subject and emotion. Also, presentation of female gestures, attitudes, and costumes are becoming obscene and incredible (unable to have credit). Marvel's storylines increasingly worship evil over good.

Great full color collection of the New Mutants origin
I had been reading a lot of the Essential X-Men books, which are great in their collection of continuous stories, but this graphic novel takes it two steps further. 1) It's in full color and really makes a much more engaging read with glossy pages. 2) It goes beyond just the first handful of issues of the series' chronology. It includes the first introduction of Karma in an issue of Fantastic Four, and then with the rest of the team's assemblage before taking you through their first 12 issues. An added bonus is the four part mini-series at the end, Magik: Storm and Illyana, that details the time Illyana spent trapped in Limbo and her journey to becoming a daemonic sorceress - extra nerd points! My only complaint was there wasn't a clear way on how to continue to read this story. Afterwards, I subscribed to Marvel Unlimited and regret nothing.

Well worth looking reading
Good stories about teenager mutants. Understand these are very young kids & so the stories have very young adult feel. The start of some of the better marvel stories.

Before X-Force they were the New Mutants!
As i said before my brother enjoys the classics from Marvel and the New Mutants are another favorite of his! Originally they were suppose to be trained to control their powers not become the new X-men, Cannonball, Sunspot Wolfsbane, Psyche, Karma and Magik and Magma 7 individuals who were a team of heroes in their own right, and still are to this day!
