Great series that doesn't get enough attention

I really think that this is one of the most under appreciated of all the X-Men books. For those that don't know, New X-Men: Academy X is a continuation of Marvel's New Mutants series that premiered in 2003. It was relaunched as New X-Men: Academy X so it could be a part of the big X-Men reload event. The writers of New X-Men: Academy X do a good job of keeping the series accessible to readers who had not read New Mutants, but I would still suggest you do anyway. I think a TPB collecting the first half of that series is scheduled to come out soon. Basically, the series, as the title implies, is about a group of mutant students who are being taught by the X-Men. All of the students in the main cast are interesting characters. The main storyline of this TPB involves the students at the school being split into different squads and competing with each other. Added drama involves a student who is being hunted by the authorities. His predicament causes a lot of different reactions among the students. This is a really great series. If you are a fan of the X-Men, or were intrigued by the scenes with the mutant students during the X-Men films, then I think you will enjoy this series. I know I am.
