 Going Back to the House of M December 19, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I admit that I fled from the thought of a huge cross-character cross-over like THE HOUSE OF M. I didn't buy any of the originals, except for a couple of Alan Davis UNCANNY X-MEN issues, but it's Alan Davis -- he's a true classic. Amazon.com offered THE HOUSE OF M collection in my Gold Box, so I thought I'd give it a try.
Wow. I really missed out. And since amazon.com offered that, and I bought, I'm getting offers almost everyday for the other related HOUSE OF M books. I bought this WOLVERINE collection because I love the idea of a universe where Logan and Mystique are partners working for SHIELD. This book does not disappoint in the slightest. It's the best of a long WHAT IF..? tale that isn't quite a WHAT IF..? tale at all. You get to watch these great Marvel characters in fantastic, alternate scenarios. One of my favorites is watching Sebastian Shaw sitting behind a SHIELD desk debriefing Mystique. So many little scenes like this make this collection a true gem.
And Marvel, if you're reading this, you gotta get Javier Saltares and Mark Texera back on WOLVERINE ASAP!

Wolvie Rules! August 23, 2007
Wolverine has many great story lines and this is amoung the best of them all! I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes the X-men or comics in general. The whole House of M is incredible, and being a huge Wolverine fan this is my fave.
 The best of the world of the House of M October 7, 2007
Brian Michael Bendis' House of M mega-event was one of the better Marvel crossover events the company had come up with in recent years, and World of M is one of the best House of M tie-in's as well. Consisting of stories involving Wolverine, Captain America, Black Panther, and Hawkeye; World of M starts off with Daniel Way's tale of S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Wolverine, whose behavior is brought into question by director Sebastian Shaw as he interoggates Wolvie's lover Mystique to learn the truth behind an old incident. Way's tale is interesting and features a great end twist as well, illustrating that not everything has completely changed in this alternate reality world. Reginald Hudlin contributes a Black Panther story which finds T'Challa and his wife Storm at odds with Magneto as Apocalypse makes his plans for Africa (and the world) known. There's appearances from Namor, the Inhumans, Sabretooth, and more familiar faces; but the overall story isn't really much to write home about. Brian Michael Bendis' The Pulse gets a House of M makeover, as thought-dead Avenger Hawkeye finds himself alive in this alternate reality, and seeking a way back home. The real standout of World of M is Ed Brubaker's Captain America story, which finds a Cap that was never frozen in suspended animation, as he recounts how the world changed from his time as a World War II hero to the mutant-ruled world he now lives in. The various art throughout (featuring Trevor Hairsone and Mark Texeira among others) is solid, rounding out a more than solid comic package. All in all, World of M is one of (if not the) best House of M tie-in's available, and is definitely worth picking up if you enjoyed Bendis' alternate reality saga.
Great view of an alternate universe November 29, 2007

I love how everything is topsy-turvy in the House of M storyline. Wolverine and Mystique are partners working for S.H.I.E.L.D, Wolverine still has a dark secret (a different one, however), the art is very good and the story inspired.
