Product Description:
The next chapter in the critically acclaimed and award-winning "X" trilogy! The Earth is in a state of civil war. Within, the demise of the Celestial at the planet's core has left the world a hollow Earth indeed, with a re-polarization process that will lead to the deaths of every man and woman on the face of the planet. Upon the world, the mutated populace of Earth now seeks to unseat the authority of the heroes who protected and served them in the days when they were only human. Leading them in this charge against the powers that be is Mr. Church - who, unknown to the masses, is Mephisto, the very devil of ancient legend. And in the wake of Captain America's death, the remaining heroes on Earth have rallied around the reborn Captain Mar-Vell and his crusade to bring an end to the power of Death itself. A crusade that will lead to a series of revelations that will unearth the secret of multiple realities, the lie at the heart of the Kree-Skrull War and the very nature of heroism itself. Collects Universe X #8-12, X, Beasts, Iron Men and Omnibus.

Rife with errors. Kingdom Come this is not.
I almost bluched at the mention of "meat shortages." Yeah, right everyone on earth has superpowers, and they just overcame Galactus and the Celestials but they're all going to die out because it's cold and there is a shortage of meat. Right...
Every charecter has become a caraciture of their former shelves, ignoring character development, and taking each character back to their roots.

The Celestial at the heart of the Earth is dead, and a war now rages on the planet. The human population is now mutated and empowered, and looking to take over from their guardian heroes.
Mephisto is at the heart of this, but Captain Mar-vell is leading a revolution, and looking to bring an end to Death.

"Universe X, Volume 2" is the second half of the middle part of the "X" trilogy created by writers Alex Ross and Jim Krueger. If you have not read "Earth X" and "Universe X Volume 1," then you have no reason to pick up this trade paperback collection because you will be completely lost as to why Peter Parker is a policeman, T'Challa is half-man and half-panther, Thor is a woman, and dozens of other twists on the regular Marvel Universe. This volume collects "Universe X" #8-12, "Universe X: X," "Universe ... Read More

This Book is an absolute worthless piece of JUNK. How it gets a rep for being some deep piece of Marvel philosophy is beyond me. It is the most RAMBLING NON SENSICAL COMPLETELY PLOTLESS piece of trash I have ever read...Believe it or not, fans of this work, philosphy doen NOT merely consist of a pair of people trading lines like "All meaning is thrown into question." and "Everything-ness is the same as nothingness." God. I thought I was gonna puke. Look, this says it all: There's a point ... Read More

I bought both volumes of Universe X without knowing Earth X was the first part of the story and proceeded to read them the second I got back from the store. I absolutely loved them. I imagine reading Earth X first would have illuminated certain areas of the story but everything was explained very well and I thought the story overall was great. I have always liked alternate reality comics, such as "What If".....Peter Parker hadn't gotten bitten by the spider?......Germany used the super soldier formula first?....etc.etc. ... Read More
