Customer Reviews

Amazing story through space and time!

The first TPB of the Exiles, simply awesome. The characters Morph, Mimic, Thunderbird, TJ (Nightcrawler's daughter),Blink, and Magnus (Magneto's son) are "plucked" from there universes and dropped in a mysterious point. Where they are all informed that they have been "mixed up" in time. And they have to travel across various universes and times to set themselves and other things back to normal. In theses other universes many strange things happend bad guys are good visa versa. Very nice to have prior Marvel knowledge when reading this. It has good dialouge and I think Morph is absolutely hilarious, even if he is over the top. I really, highly recommend this TPB. And all the other ones in the series. I have read Vol 2 also review comming soon. 5 STARS!

Possibly My Favorite Comic...EVER!

This comic and I crossed paths in quite an interesting manner. A friend who knew that I enjoyed Marvel characters who were a little off the beaten path such as Mimic and Thunderbird. A shot while later I was reading this first TPB with an intense vigor and wanted more. The concept itself is pure brilliance. Think Sliders meets Quantum Leap meets the X-Men universe with awesome results. The characters are well drawn and even better to watch develop. Even in this 1st issue events that occur change characters forever. Not only are the characters great but the worlds the Exiles visit are just as brilliant and full of detail. Wonderful story lines and amazing character development really hold this comic together. If you enjoyed What-If or any alternate universe in any comic book series i would suggest reading at least this first volume and getting your feet wet. You may very well get sucked into a sweeping story and colorful characters, both metaphorically and literally, and find yourself as addicted as myself.

X-Men + Sliders + Quantam Leap = Freakin' Awesome

This series caught my attention when it first came out, considering I was a big fan of the Age of Apocolypse story arc and that it had Blink and Morph on the cover. Different Morph, but no matter! There a a variety of situations that this group gets into which involves missions to fix whatever problem there may be in whatever reality they may be in. Which can vary from major (Kill the Pheonix) to minor (buy a cheese danish). You'd be suprised how much can spiral out a pastry problem. The original team consists of Mimic - previously a minor character in the main reality (616), Blink - From the Age of Apocolypse reality, due to fan reaction most likely, Nocturne - Daughter of Scarlet Witch and Nightcrawler, Morph - A prominent hero and member of the Xmen and the Avengers in his reality, who will also just make you laugh with everything said, T-Bird - John Proudstar, thunderbird, who died on his first mission with the X-men in the 616 reality, but from his was captured by Apocolypse and turned into one of the Horsemen, and Magnus - the daughter of Magneto and Rogue, with gifts and curses from both of his parents, along with incredible power. If you have an at least decent knowledge of past events in the Marvel history, you would probably appreciate this title. I found it amazing when they got a mission in a reality that I only knew about from reading one issue ten or fifteen years ago. Pretty obscure! I like all the little references and cameos from the depths of the Marvel history and universe. Humurous and intense,it draws you in and you care what happens to the characters just like any other title that may be a bit more mainstream. Buy it, read it, love it. This review is meant not just for this volume, but this goes for the whole series run.

One of the Best Series to READ.

I have read the whole series. This is the first graphic novel in the series. It starts you off with a fun rollercoaster ride with reality saving Marvel characters. The stories through out the series are well developed and are a fun read. They remain true with their continuity and sub-plots through out the storylines. And it gets complex. Enjoy. :) P.s. If you can remember the "What If" series that Marvel had out a very very long time ago. This series adds a 3rd degree to it, it accomlishes that same answer to a lot of those "what if's" and then gives it an ongoing reality. What If's like what would happen if the Brood survived or if the legacy virus mutated or this villain took over or if this person wasn't exposed to gamma rays . . . or whatever . . . and then it answers those questions and keeps those stories alive and mixes in all the other realities to create a whole universe of ongoing answered what if questions with their own specific and weird reality. :)

Possibly the best X-Men Spin-Off Ever!

As a long time X-Men fan, I was excited about the recent relaunches of the X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, and X-Force. While two of those books proved to be really good reads, none matched the total package that Winnick and McCone brought to the table. And if you are like me and missed the first four issues, this handy, cheap package is a brilliant introduction.For long-time fans of the X-Men this book is a no-brainer. The plot is a mix of Avengers Forever and Quantum Leap. X-Men are plucked from different realities and times and brought together to "fix" different realities that used to only happen in What If? comics. None of the heroes know who has chosen them. They are only guided by a mysterious entity called the Tallus. The cast list is a fun diverse group of X-Men. Blink, from the Ages of Apocalypse storyline a few years back leads the team. Mimic is very different from the one in the normal Marvel U. Morph is definitely the comic relief probably in his best written appearance since the old cartoon. The daughter of Nightcrawler and the Scarlet Witch, Nocturne, is probably my favorite character. There are many more characters, but telling you all about them will ruin half the fun of discovering them on your own.If you are a newcomer, don't worry. There is not a lot of back continuity to be concerned about since all of the worlds and characters do not follow normal Marvel continuity. It's kind of fun to see even the characters having a hard time dealing with that.Overall, I would say buy this book. You will be happy you did.
