Collects Uncanny X-Men (1963) #129-137. Gathered together by Professor Charles Xavier to protect a world that fears and hates them, the X-Men had fought many battles, been on adventures that spanned galaxies, grappled enemies of limitless might, but none of this could prepare them for the most shocking struggle they would ever face. One of their own members, Jean Grey, has gained power beyond all comprehension, and that power has corrupted her absolutely! Now they must decide if the life of the woman they cherish is worth the existence of the entire universe!
It's a tightly packed and action-filled volume, that ominously hints at big and bad things coming. Focus is on Jean and her growing powers as well as newcomer Kitty Pryde.
The Hellfire Club proves a worthy and somewhat different adversary to the X-Men. Emma Frost is as fascinating and dangerous as ever, and a perfect evil counterpart to Jean Grey.
I love it how the story effectively separates the team into different fractions, all with their own challenges and struggles. The characters face real challenges and the story is tense and exciting all the time.
Jean Grey's slow descent into darkness is what drives most of this story forward. Her evil version is a wonderful counterpart to her usual persona.
The reader is greatly rewarded once Jean finally turns into the Dark Phoenix. That's when this story reaches a new gear.
Issue #136 is epic, emotional and features some great moments with Cyclops and Xavier. But it is the classic 35-page epic that follows that truly defines an undying and flawless X-Men story.
😃
The introduction to Kitty Pride and her powers are interesting and effectively drive the beginning of the volume forward.
Chris Claremont keeps readers hooked with constant text boxes that are written in the style of a parent reading a fairytale. They are perfectly fitted with the action and the dialogue.
The dated art is colorful and manages to convey action well, so it works surprisingly well.
Issue #133 has some great solo action by Wolverine and Cyclops, but most of the content is quite superfluous to the overall story.
The first half of the story moves slower and is somewhat repetitive, but sets things up very well for the amazing second half.
😐
The parts without Jean or Kitty actually feel less interesting. There is a lot of padding involving Wolverine, Cyclops and Storm. Additionally, some characters appear but don't really do much, such as Nightcrawler, Angel and the new character Dazzler.
The constant recaps are somewhat tiresome when you read the issues back to back.
The final issue is an unnecessary recap of past events and only establish Cyclops leaving the team and Kitty Pryde entering, as well as Days of Future past, the next classic X-Men event.

It's always hard to bid farwell to those you love, for the Xpmen--gathered on the rain-slick landing pad behind Moira MacTaggert's Muir Island Mutant Research Centre--it's harder than most...

The Rolls' headlights touch Jason Wyngarde for a moment, throwing his shadow across the wall behind him. Cyclops automatically notes the image...but his mind--preoccupied with a host of far-more-pressing concerns--doesn't register it. Perhaps, one day, he will remember--and recognize--who he passed this night. By then, however, it may well be far too late. For him, for the X-Men--and most importantly, for the woman he loves.

Her name, as you may have guessed, is Kitty Pryde. She's about to become the newest--and youngest--pupil in Charles Xavier's school. The X-Men will never be the same again! The beginning.
