The Further Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix takes place in 1859 and retells the origin of Mister Sinister. He begins the tale as Nathaniel Essex, brilliant but misunderstood scientist who, in the age of creationism believes in evolution. Even Darwin thinks Essex insane. Driven by the death of the deformed son he was unable to save, and fear for the unborn child his wife is carrying he is soon pushing past morality into monstrosity.When a band of thugs Essex employs, named Marauders, set out to collect mutants they accidentally awaken Apocalypse. That's when Apocalypse begins the task of turning Essex into Sinister.The dialogue is solid, the art is dark, heavy, and moody, which is perfect for the feeling of the book.The bad news is the inclusion of Cyclops and Phoenix. Transported to the past by Sanctity, their presence feels forces, and could be excluded entirely. It feels like they were only added to boost sales.The good and bad balance here to make this a readable, but not spectacular book. I recommend it for X-Men fans, but I do not recommend it for new comic book readers due to the messy continuity.

Perfect service and quality of the product. As a long time fan of the X-men and Mr. Sinister I'm more than happy with this buy. I highly recommend it.

...but this book explains how Sinister became what he is , and describes a Frankensteinish scientist who crossed the line out of care for his family. Apocalypse also appears, and Jean and Scott too.The art suits story perfectly, and although this book is not better than Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, in my opinion, it is something completely different and well-written. The level of the script is Gaiman-ish.
