I wasn't sure how I would like this trade, but I loved it. This is an accessible book for the new X-Men fan, but I'm sure that long-time fans of the X-Men will enjoy it, as well. Each story is self-contained, you don't have to know every iota of X-Men history to enjoy them, and Jeff Parker writes the characters well. I also really liked the art. (
