Rating: - Not that great
I'm afraid I have to agree with the negative reviews here ... unless you're a Captain Britain fan, not even psylocke and rachel summers can save this graphic novel from itself. Mediocre at best and not necessary for enjoyment of the entire House of M experience ...
Rating: - Captain Britain in the House of M
One of the most effected books from Brian Michael Bendis' House of M was the various X-Men books, but you wouldn't tell by reading this tie-in. House of M: Uncanny X-Men follows the saga of Captain Britain as he finds himself trapped in the alternate reality world where mutants are the dominant species.

Rating: - Cool Alternate Reality Tale!
I disagree with the one-star scrooges! This book is a nicely crafted alternate reality tale that spins out of HOUSE OF M. In fact, the two spin-offs I have read, the other being HULK, were BETTER than the mini-series event they were tied to.

Rating: - Do not buy unless u like captain britain....and who does.
Frankly this book is terrible and I wasted my money on it. Capt Britain is the lamest character ever and it is only named Uncanny X-men to sell the books i'm sure.
Rating: - Not X-Men, and not good
First of all, the majority of these 4 issues are not really about the X-Men. This is really a setup for New Excalibur, which would be fine if the story was any good, but it's not.
Keep in mind I am not a fan of the original Excalibur series, so if you enjoyed that series, you may like this as well. I never cared for Captain Britain as a character, but I stick to core X-Men books. But despite that, on it's own this story has a lot of problems. First of all, it's set in the House of M universe, ... Read More
