The perfect follow up reading after watching X-Men '97 (not in MAL), the revival of X-Men: The Animated Series (1992–1997). X-Men: The Manga is an adaptation of the older series originally published in Japan. I haven't seen the show in years, so it was a nice experience to remember those episodes reading the manga.
The original manga is an adaptation of the first season of the classic animated series done by Japanese manga creators. So, it was really interesting seeing how these manga authors portrayed these quintessentially American comic book characters thru their creative lenses. I enjoyed seeing the manga style flourishes done to some of
...
my favorite characters, but other than that, it is a faithful adaptation of the episodes.
Viz remastered the original manga pages, cleaning the artwork and providing better translation for the work. All the chapters are collected in two oversized omnibus style volumes. It has that premium finish and heft to stand out in a shelf of manga or graphic novels. They really looked nice to behold.
I recommend this series for comic book fans who want to see their favorite superheroes in manga.
