X-Men - The Phoenix Saga description
Five episodes of the animated series on one DVD, The Phoenix Saga follows Jean Grey's transformation into the mysterious and powerful Phoenix. It's a tale full of internal conflict, feuding family members, and the sadness of sacrifice for the greater good. When Professor Xavier receives a psychic plea for help from an alien woman, he sends his X-Men on the next space shuttle to the Eagle One space station. They're greeted by a brute named Erik the Red, who's on a mission from Emperor D'Ken to destroy a rival's ship and take the M'Kraan crystal, which would give him unlimited power. The ship Erik the Red is supposed to destroy contains the emperor's sister, Lilandra, who is the one who established the psychic link to Professor X. Meanwhile, as Jean Grey pilots the shuttle back through the atmosphere to Earth, she is blasted by a burst of radiation that slowly changes her into Phoenix, the guardian of the M'Kraan crystal. The battle for the crystal becomes a battle for the safety of the universe. Family conflicts pop up throughout, from the sibling emperors, to Professor X fighting his half-brother Juggernaut, to Cyclops meeting the space pirate Corsair (who's actually his father). The action scenes at the end are not nearly as engaging as the story that sets them up, but stick it out because the final scene packs a wallop. --Andy Spletzer |

COMPLETE DVD SETS PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
I've been waiting patiently for this entire series to come out in COLLECTION sets. Season 1... season 2... whatever. Stays true to the comics. The characters just leap off the screen with vibe and ferocity. Creativity. The show was like comic books coming to life.
To make this short and sweet, I just wanted to voice my UTTER FRUSTRATION THAT THESE HAVEN'T YET BEEN RELEASED IN A COLLECTION SERIES!! All of em' in one purchase. Not just one disk for $20 bucks and 3 episodes.
I recommend the show, but I wait patiently for a more complete collection of the episodes before I'm gonna buy these disks. |
