thanx for the welcome zergg,
yeah i enjoy this guys here...really hardcore..at least someone knows what I'm talking bout..all my friends don't have a clue

anyhoo, the issue u mentioned I have most of em except the X-men 2 series..but they are not in the greatest condition...that time after reading i just put it aside anywhere.wasn't very carefull b4 this

madstone : yup that's what i heard...but like the original xmen title she transfered herself to an asian chic, at least the transfer is not as confusing in the original series

Yeahhh,
that's what happened when she crushed by Colossaus with a car

But Betsy Braddock really something, u know
kinda like that character when 1st bought Ultimate X-Men, but when they cut her from Ult X-Men, i kinda go with the story
even Beast also died in Ult X-Men

actually, i'm a big fan of X-Men
but since left lot of issues, i decided to start fresh
so, Ult X-Men is my so called fresh collection

Ultimate Xmen is catered towards the newer generation so you will see them take bold directions in terms of the storyline.

Look at Ult spidey, Mary Jane found out about Parker being Spidey in like the first year itself. Damn fast

Guess what, beast is still alive, from what I heard..I don't collect Ult X-men due to funding issues however I do keep track of what's happening..
Do you have any pics of Ult Psylocke? cause I can't find it anywhere in the net..even wikipedia..

zio : yeah seems like ult x-men is also pretty fast.

hey guys, id like to say sorry in advance if this is so much inappropriate to be bpoasted here..
but anyway, theres a guy in this lowyat forum named ychwang who offered the price of RM115 for astonishing x-men vol. 1 HC.the price is inclusive of s&h and shipping to kuching, sarawak.
is it a reasonable price?

hey there. lol. yeap beast is alive again. the latest ultimate x-men paperback vol.17 has the story. its about to be released soon.

I think it's a reasonable price...
the thing is, the condition of the HC book
is it in great shape? is it well kept? covered with plastic?
BUT RM115 is a worth buying HC
normal price like RM102 at KINO Since i've been collecting the Ult X-Men HC, hope u guys don't spoil me everything in the storyline please
just put spoiler tag so that i can't see it if i don't want

Please guys, don't spoil the storyline k?

TQ

madstone, actually the HC is new.directly from amazon..if thats the case, ill pay him tomorrow since he said the shipping is going to take 1week plus..
thanx again

man...sorry madstone didn't realize you were collecting..
does this mean you guys only collect paperback or HC? not the monthly issue?
oh and thewayiam do you collect Ult X-Men?

If it's new, what r u waiting for? It's cheap man!
Get it fast! It's ok
I'm collecting HCs now since wanna save for more HCs
I bought TPB also but certain comics like Y: The Last Men & Jack of Fables both from Vertigo

My Ultimate X-Men run begins with Psylocke re-introduced in Ultimate X-Men and she is Bishop's future wife???

X-Men : 2nd Series, you can get the 1st 7 issues on TPBK under X-Men : Mutant Genesis. Story comprised of :-

# 1 - 3 : vs Magneto, X-Men Blue vs X-Men Gold, vs Acolyte
# 4 - 7 : vs The Hand, Omega Red & Psylocke

All artwords by Jim Lee & Inker Scott Williams. Good for collection sake.

The only problem with Psylocke is the person who writes about the transformation resigned from X-Men. So the actual account of the why is lost in translation until you get Crimson Dawn, Revanche, etc. Though Chris Claremont come back, I think the damage is too much to really make sense of Psylocke's transformation.

The debate over Psylocke to get back into British body and Asian body kinda fizzles out. Since Psylocke in her oriental form more recognisable, Psylocke remains that even in Ultimate.

I know a thing or two about X-Men. Been collecting for a while now.

@ zergg, the Astonishing X-Men HC in amazon.com

http://www.amazon.com/Astonishing-X-Men-Vo...334/ref=ed_oe_h

The price is reasonable if you take into account the USD$ 19-79 + USD$ 10-00 shipping from Amazon if you purchase directly yourself. Well considering the weight, hope he stays in East Malaysia if he gonna mail it.

Cover by JOHN CASSADAY
Where were you when Captain America died? Perhaps you were listening to the radio or reading the morning paper. Maybe you were surfing the web or on the phone with a friend. You were probably shocked, most likely thinking, "How could they? How could this happen to Cap?" And for a moment, you perhaps thought about all the ways the super soldier meant something to you. Something very real, very abiding. FALLEN SON: DEATH OF CAPTAIN AMERICA follows the reaction of the legendary heroes' best friends and closest comrades as they struggle to work through the emotions stirred by the loss of their ally, and the stages of grief that make them confront the part they may have played in that loss. Wolverine. The Avengers. Hawkeye. Spider-Man. Iron Man. All have their own sense of loss, their own levels of grieving. This is their story. This is Cap's story. This is our story. The story of a Fallen Son and the world he helped make a better place.

What if Iron Man had lost the Civil War? What If Captain America led all the heroes against the Superhuman Registration Act and Henry Gyrich became head of S.H.I.E.L.D. to take them down? What if the Hulk had landed on a peaceful planet, as the Marvel heroes had intended when they exiled him into space? Or Banner had landed on Sakaar instead of the Hulk?

X-MEN: ENDANGERED SPECIES HC STILL AVAILABLE!
$24.99 (ISBN: 978-0-7851-3012-3)

I'm currently collecting Messiah Complex, still waiting for the last 3 issues, it's a great one..highly recommended...as for Endangered Species...please avoid it..it was seriously a waste of money

thanaezra, you must be collecting the direct edition comics. same here with me.

For those who likes X-Men, you should get X-Men Messiah Complex HC, X-Men : Supernova and X-Men : Marauders. Writer is Mike Carey, great stuff too.

There's one hell of info from Eric

Thanks man

lol..i collect ultimate x-men as well..the paperback ones.. i don't know much about the new episode as well le.. so no worries..i just read about the beast thing on wikipedia..
ive always wanted 2 collect the uncanny x-men..but its just too much...

I know how you feel man, if i'm that rich I'll definately buy all the X-Titles
BTW just FYI there are rumours that Uncanny X-men will be canceled around issue#500 , after the messiah complex Event

So can i suggest, if u want...try new X-men (which will actually end this month..but will continue in Young X-men)...the new X-kids are pretty cool..reminded me a lot of the New Mutant days

You can start with Uncanny X-Men Omnibus. Collecting Giant Sized X-men # 1, # 94 - 131. I think you might be able to get it at comicmart @ RM340-00. Priceless ! I dunno about Omnibus Vol. 2, I will get it if it is out in the future.

For cheaper version, get Essential X-Men now is up to Vol. 8 for those keen on Uncanny X-Men earlier exploits. But beware, Essential is Black & White.

I think thanezra, it should be X-Men replaced by X-Men Legacy.

lol..yeap...once messiah complex is done with...the uncanny x-men will have the #500 episode..and then its to be replaced with x-men legacy..

generally i think the omnibus is not my type...im not really into the old comic drawings...lol..i prefer the current ones...i've seen the list of uncanny x-men paperbacks available..but there's like...26 or more, not including certain crossovers....$$$
