I can barely slog my way through this book. Heavy on dialogue, light on sense, plot, story. This is the reason that the X-men needed a reboot, which thankfully was done by Grant Morrison and Joss Whedon. This book is a horrific collection of stories written by Chris Claremont, Scott Lobdell, sadly, Robert Weinberg and Joe Pruett, both of whom show much more talent when not doing X-men comics.

Not just Collosus dies in this book. This book is full of death of long time x-men characters. As for quality, this book seems typical of the late 90s art styles.
I don't know if it was for all of them, or just a defect on mine, but on a few pages there were errors of printing, that the word bubbles on 2 pages were flipped.
It's on ok book, but there are lots of better X-books out there. The final issue of the book, with Kitty Pryde delivering Peter's ashes to Russia is 5 stars by itself.

Colossus returned in the pages of Astonishing X-Men over six months ago. You can find this brillant story (Courteous of Joss Wheton) in the TBP "Gifted." If anything, pick it up for John Cassidy's stunning art. As for "Dream's End," pass on it because this is another vain endeavor on the part of Marvel to cash in on a grossly irrelevant storyline.

This is about The Death of Colossus, right? So why's he brought in at the end? A slow, turgid ale, full of fits & starts, this doesn't really explain why Colossus dies, nor Why he Dies [if you get my drift]. His death is a mere bagatalle, an on-screen off-screen [i.e, unimportant] event.
Dull, dull, dull. For -X-men- completists only.

Why am I thanking the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel and current scribe of Astonishing X-Men? Because he helped make this ridiculous storyarc a thing of the past when he recently brought beloved X-Man Colossus back to life, that's why. Dream's End collects various X-issues, including Uncanny X-Men #390 in which the steel skinned mutant meets his maker when he sacrifices his life to put an end to the Legacy Virus. When this storyline appeared, I was completely turned off of Marvel and other mainstream comics, and when I heard of Scott Lobdell's "brilliant" idea, I found myself justified in my decision. The issues collected in this TPB really were the end of an era: comic master Grant Morrison would be recruited to put his own original spin on the X-Men, and any of his collected editions, as well as Whedon's current issues of Astonishing X-Men, are much more worth your time then this TPB. Most of the art is solid, but in the end, Dream's End is better left on the shelf.
