Divided Who Stands?

"X-Men: Divided We Stand" is not to be confused with "Uncanny X-Men: Divided We Stand." The latter stars Cyclops, Emma Frost, Wolverine, etc., while this book stars a B- and C-list of mutants, such as Cannonball, Husk, Nightcrawler, Storm, Neznho, Anole, Beast, Dark Beast, Havok, Vulcan, Pixie, and Surge.

Most of the stories work, and the artwork is wonderfully diverse. The casual X-Men fan, unfortunately, won't recognize many of these characters. Several future storylines are teased and set up here, so it's still worth reading for hardcore fans.

Note: Not as advertised

The book itself is an alright collection of stories filling in the blanks left by Messiah CompleX. However, it should e noted that this TPB does NOT include the 2008 X-Men Free Comic Book Day special, although the description says that it does.
