Summary: That Silver Age Feel
Review: This series when it first came out got dismissed because of the Crisis On Infinte Earths that cast it in the light of being a knock-off. Rereading this series twenty years later shows it to be a fun romp with many elements of the silver age in place (with big kudos to Jim Shooter who pracitcally built the fondly remembered Legion of the 1960s). If you want serious pass this up-you want fun this is the spot for you.

Summary: Far From a Classic
Review: Too many battles with lame villains, no decent character development; bizarre plot developments are never explained, especially with Galactus. The X-Men are very poorly treated, with Wolverine being overly aggressive and Colossus falling in love with an alien woman for no reason. Cyclops, Rogue and Storm don't do a whole lot; neither does Spider-man, although he does get the famous alien costume (in three panels--not worth getting the book for). The Thing's turning into Ben Grimm is never explained (or maybe it is in the next "awesome" crossover). All in all, you should only get this if you're a big fan of Captain America, Mr. Fantastic, Dr. Doom or The Molecule Man.
