    They keep rereleasing the same exact stories instead of doing Uncanny omnibus v4.

    I wonder what the price-point on these will be. Because if they're cheap "hey, welcome to the X-Men, here's where you get started" books, I can see a need for that. (Still bitter about losing the Essentials line.) But if they're more $40+ TPBs, what the heck? Didn't we just get a pricey Mutant Massacre reprint too?

    Why?

    there are already TPBs....there are already digital scans you can find online for free if you dont want to spend the money.

    Marvel hasn't learned that people have become smarter with the way they read back issues.

    OMG! New stuff! Oh wait... I have all of these in trade or digital collection. Let's stop re-releasing stuff and saying they're launching something.

    Very ugly trade dress but happy with any extra attention the X-Men can get. Although as others have pointed out, these particular stories are already widely available in TPB form.

    I'm really nostalgic for the end of the Dark Phoenix Saga. Can we do that again?

    How is this line different then the "True Believers" reprint line?
    Doctor Strange: "You are the right person to replace Logan."
    X-23: "I know there are people who disapprove... Guys on the Internet mainly."

    I don't know why people are upset about this. The best way to feed nostalgia is to do reprints rather than retreads in the current books.
