Chris Claremont ended his original run on the X-Men with the third issue of the X-Men, back in 1991. Jump ahead almost twenty years, and X-Men Forever basically picks up after that third issue, following a sort of What If? storyline, with the concept being Claremont never having left the series. I don't know if I'd go so far as to call this a "landmark comics event" (as it is self-described), but I will say that that is an interesting take on the X-Men.

The story basically picks right up after the death of Magneto and the Acolytes, with the X-Men on the search for Fabian Cortez, the true villain of the original story arc. Nick Fury and SHIELD have stepped in, deeming it necessary to have government officials watching over the X-Men and their doings (shades of events that happened later on in the "real" X-Men timeline in the Decimation storyline). The X-Men capture Cortez, but barely have time to get home and lick their wounds before Storm apparently goes crazy and attacks the X-Men, leaving one of their number dead. This is where I started to feel really confused. Claremont had already turned one of the plot threads from the original series on its ear (Wolverine and Jean Grey...), but now one of the longest standing X-Men may in fact be a villain? Well, he comes up with a possible answer to this question and one that actually has me wanting to read the next volume to see how he's going to explain Storm's actions.

Tom Grummett's art is good. He's no Jim Lee, but he does an admirable job in keeping with the overall look of the characters from the original series.

Overall, an interesting return to some of my favorite characters in the X-Men. Don't both reading this if you never read at least the first three issues of the original X-Men series. If you have read those issues and are interested in seeing what Chris Claremont has come up with in returning to the series, I'd say at least pick up this first volume. He makes some seriously drastic changes to some of the characters, but I honestly interested to see where he's taking these changes. ( )

Magneto is dead, Jean Grey is in love with Wolverine, Fabian Cortez is being hunted down and the x-men have a traitor in their midst.

Interesting but nothing exceptional ( )

There isn't much that I can say about this collection. It's typical Claremont; if you like him, then you'll probably like these comics. If you don't like him, then you probably won't. I tend to like Claremont, and I liked this collection.

The characters' internal monologue got to be annoying after a while, especially when they kept over-explaining things. I don't really need my hand held when I read comics to be able to figure out what's going on, but perhaps these were written with a younger reader in mind. ( )

Logan was the first to say the words -- and it was as though a great door had opened to her heart, to let in light so bright and pure she never dreamed it could exist.

The whole book, and other volumes, are set in an alternate timeline from the main Marvel Universe and should only be linked to the other volumes in this series, printed in 2009 and 2010.

All characters listed are, thus, from an alterate timeline. Only the first is specifically flagged, more for readability reasons, if nothing else.
