Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Cool Art+story+characters=bingo
Amazing art almost throughout
I like the Sinister reimaging, he's a killer
and he's crazy. He never did it for me in the main universe
Very nice characterization
kinda uneventful, but not really
worth it, to me



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Newer And Better Sinister
Out of all my Ultimate X-Men Novels this one rates as one of my favorites. Short of Vol. 6 and 8. I love a good read and solid story and though this may have little to do with future stories it takes a sorry, sad, goofy looking villian and turned him into a crazy and scary man with 45's. He looks better and his power of hypnosis works well with what he trying to do, kill mutants. The possibility of another major villian in this novel also leaves you with some high expectations for future novels.

Thank God for Ultimate Universe



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - two thumbs up
this was really good! It had every thing that makes a comic good. With a story so good you can,t miss. but too top it off with the great art work to! this is a realy good read1



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Fabulous
Mr. Sinister is one of those characters who always seemed kind of silly and over-the-top in the regular Marvel Universe. In "The Tempest," Brian K. Vaughan has revamped the character, making him essentially a nutjob with a gun. While I'm sure that will tick off many of Sinister's longtime fans, I think the revamp works well for the Ultimate Universe. Sure, Vaughan could have given us a retread of the original Sinister, but let's face it--that story has already been told. One of the beautiful things about the Ultimate Universe is that we can get a new spin on familiar characters.

Other familiar characters in this volume are Northstar and Sunspot, but save for their ages and backgrounds, little has changed about their characters. The introduction of Northstar (one of my favorite characters) was a little short for me, but hopefully, we'll see lots more of him in the future.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Pretty good
I actually rather liked this story. It's a nice easy four-issue arc, that fit well in the aftermath of the last volume. I thought this Ultimate Sinister character was actually pretty good, in my opinion. Anyway, I thought it was much better than the previous volume (some reviewers didn't like this revamping of Sinister, but at least that's much better than the skewering of Emma Frost, and the uselessness of most of the new mutants introduced in vol. 8). I especially liked Vaughan's take on mutant politics (sure, Xavier's school provides a safe haven for mutants, but is isolationism from the human population necessarily a good thing?).
