Generation X
By
Scott Lobdell and Elliot S! Maggin

This novel took me a whopping 4 months to plow through. It had nothing to do with length, since the book was the averag 270+ pages. No this one took so long because it was so damn boring. Never have I crept so slowly through a book before. I would leave this one on my nightstand and start and finish several other books and go back to this dreck. Anyway I finally did get through the thing and this is easily the worst Marvel novel of the lot.
The plot of the novel involved Emma Frost's former Hellion students coming back to life to haunt her new students of Generation X. The book went on and on about their apparances and at no time did you ever care about any of these characters being haunted. We then are introduced to a throaway character by the name of Walter. Walter is a new student at the school and added nothing to the plot. As if the two authors didn't have enough characters to mess with in Generation X. The authors then committed one of my least favorite plot devices; the infamous Bobby Ewing move. The dream scenerio is always a cheap shot to the readers and this time by the villian D'Sparye.
This book only gets one web head out of four. The slow pacing and zero character development really took this book down. Unless your a die hard, gotta have everything X fan, pass this one up on the bookshelf.
