Nice! I firmly believe the 90's was the best time for X-Men comics, the TV show and so on, so much energy! It has yet to be as exciting as back then. And yeah i'd likely go for the soft covers because hard cover pricing, even back then is insanely expensive. For me anyway. 7:18 - Look at storm! O___O Wow! Bishop is one of my fav characters too btw! :)

[@jpsarri]

youtubasoarus I totally agree. 90’s energy was unparalleled. The X-Men were at their peak then. No other run has come close since. Personally, I love Portacio’s depiction of Storm. She looks gorgeous! My 3 favorite X-Men artist of the 90’s were Jim Lee, Whilce Portacio and Art Thibert. In that specific order. Thanks for watching, bro!

[@youtubasoarus]

@@jpsarri Yeah I was a huge Jim Lee fan, specially on X-Men. I later followed his art into Wildstorm and that was pretty much my bread and butter for comics in the 90's. All Image, all the way. I was still picking up the odd Marvel and DC book, but mostly just Image. I miss that era!

[@reyvazquez7800]

You can maybe do New mutants omnibus vol 1 review just an idea

[@jpsarri]

Thanks for the suggestion. When I get my hands on one copy I sure will. 😸

[@shawnkcurtis]

Hi, I just received the book and had the same markings on the first page. Is that the glue bleeding in?

[@jpsarri]

Hello there, not sure of what markings are you referring to, but mine doesn’t seem to have any. However, it may be as you said, glue bleeding in. I’ve seen that in other books. A factory defect.

[@JennySparkz]

Was NOT a fan of this particular time period of X-men. Although I read and collected the books there is no way I'll collect it again in hardcover format as I have no emotional attachment to these books or stories

[@jpsarri]

I feel you on that. Collect what you love the most. That is my motto. In my case, early 90’s X-Men was my favorite era for the team. That’s why I collect the hardcovers of this particular time.

[@cybernitemusic]

Late 80s early 90s was my fave stuff. But I am biased, as that is when I was a kid reading comics :)

[@jpsarri]

I’m with you on that. Same here.

[@TabulaRasa1972]

Hello JP.....great review, well done! I am going to buy this one, it brings back a lot of memories. The 90s were great for comics, despite what many says. What type of camera do you use for your review? Thanks a gain and have a great day! M.

[@jpsarri]

Mario Cionini Visani thanks for the support! I use an old Canon Vixia HFR400 camcorder. It is not the best but gets the job done at 1080p 60 FPS. Planning to get a new camera soon. Still undecided but I am thinking on a DSLR (Canon or Sony) or the newer 4K Vixia. Time will tell.

[@luistownmassacre]

You should talk about the stories in the comics and do closer looks at the panels.

[@jpsarri]

What do you mean? I give enough information as it is. Have you watched any of my other videos? Can you show me an example from your channel?

[@AgentMorgan2010]

This is my grail. Bishop is one of those characters I was always fascinated by, and a fan of as a kid. I need this in hardback, but it's long out of print, and is going for $200 minimum on eBay. -_-

[@jpsarri]

I know. But keep your eyes open. It may get reprinted at some point. It is more common nowadays with Marvel books.

[@jpsarri]

And I love Bishop as well. Him and Cable are the coolest X-Men characters from the 90’s.

[@joshualong6900]

Bro*

[@joshualong6900]

I’ve been excited for this thanks to!!!

[@jpsarri]

Josh Long you are welcome. I hope you like it.

[@guillermojacum7014]

The reason why they changed from the black faux leather cover to the wraparound cover was mainly related to cost cutting measures. Between 2009 and 2012, OHCs and Omnibuses sported the same "premium quality" than HC Masterworks. From 2013 onwards, only HC Masterworks retained that "premium" quality. In other words, that book of yours is a thing of beauty 😍

[@jpsarri]

It sure is. They don’t make them like they used to.
