2.0 out of 5 stars Note: Not as advertised, October 27, 2008

By	Daniel Gallagher - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The book itself is an alright collection of stories filling in the blanks left by Messiah CompleX. However, it should e noted that this TPB does NOT include the 2008 X-Men Free Comic Book Day special, although the description says that it does.

3.0 out of 5 stars Divided Who Stands?, October 5, 2008

By	Andrew Shaffer "www.PrintisUndead.com" (Davenport, Iowa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

"X-Men: Divided We Stand" is not to be confused with "Uncanny X-Men: Divided We Stand." The latter stars Cyclops, Emma Frost, Wolverine, etc., while this book stars a B- and C-list of mutants, such as Cannonball, Husk, Nightcrawler, Storm, Neznho, Anole, Beast, Dark Beast, Havok, Vulcan, Pixie, and Surge.

Most of the stories work, and the artwork is wonderfully diverse. The casual X-Men fan, unfortunately, won't recognize many of these characters. Several future storylines are teased and set up here, so it's still worth reading for hardcore fans.

2.0 out of 5 stars That's it???, January 16, 2009

By	pablo - See all my reviews

By the time you're 20 pages into this you realize how it's going to go, and your dissapointed you spent 7 or so dollars on this. This is just a set up for something coming down the road. If you're crazy about everything X-Men you'll find something in this I suppose, but for eveybody else, I'd advise you spend your money on any other X-Men graphich novel you can find, or even give the Image title "Invincible" a try. That never fails to entertain.
