    Shinny New and Still Satisfying
  

*by F***D on Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2017*

Many of the reviews I read on Amazon before purchasing this book covered the specifics of the book and explained exactly which issues were included. Those reviews were helpful but truthfully I wanted to purchase this regardless of the reviews because it was one of my favorite X-Men stories. With that being said, I ended up being very surprised when I received this product and found that I was receiving such a better product than just what I had purchased it for. This book not only is a collection of the story I loved but it includes a bunch of extras, like the comic covers from this story line, classic posters, and random other art pieces that any fan of these books will instantly recognize. The hard cover option is a must for any book collector and they even took the time too re-master each and every page (including the covers) for this collection. If you are a purist then there maybe an issue for you with the art because I compared it to my old paperback graphic novel I purchased in the early 2000's and there is a noticeable difference in coloring. But for me, that difference did not take away from the joy of the new look. It may have some new coloring but the art still looks beautiful as ever. All in all, it is still amazing!

    Great collection, and YES it's recolored modern style!
  

*by F***Z on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2013*

Before buying this, I had a LOT of trouble finding info about it.  I mean, I KNEW what it was reprinting, but I wanted to know if it had been RECOLORED modern style.  And the answer is YES!Nowadays, comics companies have to re-scan their old material digitally, and actually have a company re-color it like the comics of old.  So, a lot of this 'remastered' stuff is remastered, but not really re-colored.  I mean, technically, it is re-colored, but it is recolored to match the old comics.  I'm sorry... but that doesn't do it for me anymore.  I want to see more modern recoloring.This book...  Mutant Genesis 2.0.... is colored MODERN STYLE.  The colorist doesn't go overboard with the work... it's actually pretty good.  (I will agree some 'modern' colors are terrible, but this one is somewhat faithful.)  It adds an extra sheen and makes the material so much better.I wish Marvel would re-color everything old... I would start buying that material.  As it is... I can't really stand looking at the old coloring nowadays.The main colorist for this is THOMAS MASON, and he does a good job.  I'm currently looking for anything Marvel has had recolored, because it just makes everything look so much nicer.  The recent TALES OF ASGARD is wonderful.If you like this material by Jim Lee, Claremont, and others...  and you like modern coloring... you will enjoy this book.  Otherwise, the old version is still available, too.

    Worth it even just for X-Men #1
  

*by N***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2014*

The deluxe gatefold ('E') edition of X-Men (1991) #1 was one of my first ever comic books. As a youngster, I was most impressed by Jim Lee's interpretation of the X-Men. I don't remember there being so much text when I first read it all those years ago. That said, I was/am much more interested in the artwork than the text!X-Men: Mutant Genesis 2.0 is a superb compilation of issues 1 to 7 of Marvel's 1991 X-Men series. The recolouring of issue #1 is absolutely gorgeous. As the quality of original artwork varies throughout the seven issues in the compilation, the recolouring also suffers from the apparent roughness of the original layouts. The artwork is great but just not up to the quality of issue 1.The compilation is presented in a nicely bound hardcover format with a colourful dust jacket. Using yellow as the highlight colour was a good choice. Without the dust jacket, the cover is black with a metallic blue X-Men logo. The 'Mutant Genesis' title, also metallic blue, is printed on the spine. The pages are bright, glossy and printed on nice stock. At the back are two fold-out posters recoloured by Thomas Mason.The latter issues in this compilation are by no means poor. Even if you just want to see X-Men (1991) #1 as it was intended then buying this item is well worth it.
