Bleah. I recognized the first story - I have it as a comic - but in text form (and from Bobby's viewpoint) it was painful to read. I skimmed several of the others - the one with Havok learning to be a team leader, and a few others that now (ten days later) I can't even remember. I do enjoy the X-men comics, but these stories utterly did not work for me. I was unable to read the whole thing.
Tiny font and some of the stories are a bit lame but the last two were interesting.
