Joss Whedon, best known for his innovative television work including Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Firefly (see Serenity) captured the imagination of the comic book world by bringing the X-Men back to their roots. In Astonishing X-Men, with artist John Cassaday, the X-Men are again a small team of heroes balancing fighting threats to mutant and mankind with educating young mutants at their rebuilt institute for higher learning. Team members also battle personal problems—bickering with one another, trying to deal with old enemies and old ghosts, and even digging up the familiar blue-and-yellow costumes.

Marvel had little choice but to reprint the sold-out issues; here, they collect the debut issue of the “old” team with the debut issue of a new one–New X-Men: Academy X. This latter series introduces a new cast of young mutants, who will learn to use their powers, learn to relate to each other, and of course, learn to survive. Nunzio DeFilippis, Christina Weir, and Randy Green collaborate.
