X-Men: Endangered Species by Grant  3 Stars
September 03, 2009
If you are a fan of the character Beast, this is a good graphic novel to purchase. Was it as good as some of the other X-Men storylines, no, but it was still entertaining.

Beast looks for answers in a post House of M world. by A. Monge (New York, NY) 4 Stars
May 12, 2009
I purchased Endangered Species after loving House of M and wanting to see where they'd take the story. This book mainly focuses on Beast attempting to solve the problems of this post House of M world. The book is basically a Beast graphic novel, there are no major battles and the X-Men are only really seen in the first chapter. These facts might disappoint most but I didn't mind, I enjoyed seeing Dr. McCoy attempting to figure this whole thing out. The art is great and the story starts off and ends pretty strong. I wasn't too big on that other main character but overall I enjoyed the story as a whole.
I'd recommend picking up Deadly Genesis and Rise & Fall Of Shi'ar Empire before this if you've just read House Of M. Those 2 books surely happen before Endangered Species and although it isn't essential for understanding this book, there is an aspect in this story that will confuse you if you're coming straight from House of M.

Complex by Savant11 (Canada)  5 Stars
December 18, 2008
I almost passed on this book because of the negative reviews. Please note this book is less about 'the adventures' of the X-men. Than it is an exploration of science and faith (though I would mostly say science) to fix things. Sometimes trying to make things 'better' actually make it worse.
Yost, Carey and Gage are truly some of the greatest writers in the industry. All three writers understand that comics don't have to be 'dumbed down' to be good. It's an awesome and very complex story, that will have you picking it up to re-read.
If you are looking for a 'smack down' between the X-men and their enemies. Then this book is not for you. However if you are looking for an intelligent and well thought out story that asks very profound and serious questions about science and attempts to right wrongs. Then please read this. It's truly worth every penny.

What the F@(&? by R. Scott Sprague (Mass.)  2 Stars
August 25, 2008
O.K., some of the art was decent, but the story... The way they drew some obscure plots from years ago that dead-ended or were dropped, and the heinous misuse of Mr. Sinister, and the ridiculous Mystique angle...I just can't tell what they were thinking. I am a hardcore old school X-men fan. I loved the stuff Claremont was doing in the late seventies and early eighties, and some things that other writers took on in the nineties. So, the only thing of any vague interest to me in this entire story is the potential identity of the mutant infant. and the time hopping cat and mouse game between Cable and Bishop.
