House of M Kindle & comiXology

Wonderful storyline and art Bendis.has always been a great and creative storyteller The artist was excellent as well Highly appreciated and recommend

I started reading Marvel trades (comic collections) with Siege, when I decided to jump back in time and read all the main "events" in sequence. House of M takes the idea flirted with in "Disassembled" to the extreme. Wanda, The Scarlet Witch, has gone insane and completely changed reality!The story opens with the X-Men, including Charles Xavier, and the Avengers meeting to determine the fate of Wanda, who has become a danger to everyone. She caused the death of 3 Avengers, and injured many more. The story sets a dark tone right away as Emma Frost advocates for "putting her down". However, the group is split over a course of action. Meanwhile, Pietro has gone to his sister because he knows they may kill her. Suddenly, everything goes white and the world changes.This event takes the 'What If' concept and gives it full measure. What if mutants ran the world? What if Gwen Stacy and Uncle Ben didn't die? What if Dr. Strange was never in that accident? Would they all be truly happy? Wolverine (somewhat inexplicably) knows the world is not right. When he runs into a strange mutant child, Layla, she reveals the way the world should be. Wolverine then sets out to find his allies and cause them to remember. When they confront Wanda, the world's fate hangs in the balance.Before reading this, I had heard a lot about how amazing this event was, and what a game changer it is. All of which is true. Not only does it leave the X-Men forever altered, and the Avengers somewhat broken, it obviously lays the groundwork for Civil War: many of these "heroes" have extremely dangerous powers which begs the question, Who Watches the Watchmen? Overall, I think House of M is fantastic, with stunning artwork to complement a brilliant storyline. I can see why Bendis and Coipel have such a great reputation; I intend to read all the House of M tie-in collections to see more detail of how each hero was affected. Highly recommended!

Wow!After watching WandVision and Doctor Strange into the Multiverse of Madness, I needed to read “House of M”.This was quite crazy what a broken heart and power can do to an entire world. What a heartbreaking ending.Such a powerful one too!

Here is a terrific follow-up to "Avengers - Disassembled.' Just what are the Avengers and X-men going to do about poor Wanda Maximov? She lost her mind, and control over her reality-altering powers, and killed a few of her Avenger friends, including Hawkeye and Vision, her husband (See "Disassembled"). Charles Xavier and Doctor Strange are trying their best to keep her from permanently destroying reality, but they can't hold out any longer. A decision has to be made.Unfortunately for the Avengers and X-men, the decision is made for them before they can act. Wanda has disappeared, and the world as they know it has been completely wiped out and replaced with an alternate reality. Who is hiding her? Has she permanently altered the lives of everyone she cares about? Is this new reality actually better? You'll need to read this outstanding collection to find out.The story is a wonderful take on a classic Star Trek (Next Generation - "Yesterday's Enterprise") episode where reality is totally different, but only one person seems to know what's happening. It also reminds me of some great Twilight Zone stories where you're not sure if the protagonist is the crazy one, or if it's everyone else. I won't spoil it, but needless to say, there's tons of confusion for several characters.As the heroes gradually retain their grips on what is real and what is not, even more decisions have to be made. Is this new reality actually better? For some, maybe it is. For others, the loss is too great to bear.The storytelling (Bendis) here is outstanding, and the art (Copiel) helps tell the story instead of overshadowing it. The cover art is exceptional. Bendis has had several classic stories (Daredevil, Ultimate Spider-Man), and this one is no exception. For Avengers fans, X-men fans, Spider-Man fans, or just fans of good comic books, this is a must-read!

Much to the dismay of many fans, Brian Michael Bendis' run on the Avengers saw the destruction of the team from the inside out as the Scarlet Witch's reality altering powers killed members Hawkeye, Vision, and Ant-Man; and caused much more chaos beyond that as well. House of M picks up in Genosha with Professor Xavier failing to help the Scarlet Witch reclaim her sanity, leading Xavier to unite his X-Men and the New Avengers to decide her fate. Then everything goes white. When X-Men and New Avengers member Wolverine comes to, the whole world is upside down. Mutants are the dominant species on the planet and humans are looked down upon. Magneto and his family are the royal leaders of the planet, and Wolverine is an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who knows that this world isn't right. As he scrambles to locate his friends and team mates to find Xavier and figure out just what happened, we are given glimpses of this alternate reality, which is surprisingly well thought out and written by Bendis, who had a reputation for being a top writer with his indie-crime work and his early work on Daredevil, but has been labeled lately as being overrated and working on so many Marvel titles it's almost impossible to keep up with what he's doing. While this mega event mini-series doesn't focus on as many of the characters as one would like (there are seperate TPB's focusing on Captain America, the Hulk, Spider-Man, Iron Man, and the Dr. Doom led Fantastic Four in this alternate world) but that is forgiveable here. There's some nice art here by Olivier Coipel, and Bendis' story has plenty of twists and surprises, and an ending which actually leaves the Marvel universe in a situation it hasn't faced, and a delicious twist for Wolverine as well. All in all, House of M may be seem as yet another mega cross over mini-series, but the biggest twist here is that it's actually pretty good.

I don't know much about comics, I've just started reading them, but I've bought a couple of omnibus books before this one and I can say for certain that this book is overpriced. By how much? I dunno.The art is cool, the page quality is good, although they are pretty thin, so it may feel like an upgraded magazine when you thumb through it. Still, the overall quality of the book is very good. Borderline premium, I'd say.The binding seems pretty good too. The book opens up without working the covers in the slightest, so you won't have to worry about creases forming in the front or the back.Apart from the main House of M issues #1 to #8, it's got some cool supplementary stuff too - quite a few variant covers, some "newspaper clippings" at the end, little things here and there that's cool to look at.The story... well I liked it. I'm not big on reading, and this one hooked me till the end. Stuff like this is completely subjective, but most people who've read this seem to like it, so there's that.Conclusion: Overall, I like it, but I bought Hellboy Omnibus 1 for 1200 and it was 350 pages. Hellboy Omnibus 2 was 1600 for a little over 400 pages. This one's 1800 for 220 pages. When you take the price into consideration, it seems like a bad decision, but I guess that's the general rate for Marvel or DC titles. Maybe it's just this title that's expensive. I have no idea. Point is, if the price ain't a big deal to you, buy it immediately. If it is.... well, I started with Hellboy omnibus like I mentioned earlier. You could try those.

マグニートーの娘、スカーレットウィッチ(ワンダ)が正気を失い、能力を暴走させ、ヒーロー達は彼女の処遇を巡り議論し、一堂に会する。しかし、追い詰められた彼女はその能力で現実世界を作り変えてしまった！　ミュータントが人類を支配し、それぞれが幸せに生きる世界…　謎の少女の協力を得、一人記憶を取り戻したウルヴァリンは記憶を失ったヒーロー達を一人、また一人と仲間に加え、事件の真相、真犯人へと近付いていく…その後のMARVEL世界、特にX-MENシリーズの世界を根底から揺るがす一大イベントです。アート、ストーリー共に見逃せません。ただ、キャプテンアメリカファンはがっかりするかもしれませんが（笑

As a Scarlet Witch Fan, I put this in my Wishlist after watching Age of Ultron. I got more than what I expected. Art is good. Made me love Marvel much more.

Excellant

Tudo começa no final dos anos 80 para os anos 90, mas, vai se tornar um padrão a partir dos anos 2000. Vale a constatação, a idéia de dinastia M ou the house of magneto (a casa de magneto) e no sentido de casta nobre, a idéia é excepcional, uma das melhores, para rivalizar com Camelot 3000, mas, ao contrário desta, o roteiro de dinastia M me pareceu apressado, superficial, e, confuso, resumindo fraco, quase uma aventura ao começar a partir do final de um evento anterior que não é revelado durante todo o quadrinho, ou, tenha se mostrado relevante, não permitiu ao leitor recordar os eventos que levaram ao desaparecimento do professor Xavier, na prática todo o livro Dinastia M, todo o roteiro é apenas a conclusão da estória e de forma muito fanfarrona, a Wanda se tornou um deusa e isso não foi esclarecido se era claro ou não para os vingadores especialmente para o gaviao arqueiro, mas, para Magneto estava claro. O grande problema dos quadrinhos milenar é se destacar demais da realidade, o contrário dos quadrinhos encantadores dos anos 70 e 80...
