Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Mike Carey got into writing through comic books, where his horror/fantasy series Lucifer garnered numerous international awards and was nominated for five Eisners. From there he moved into novels and screenplays, while still maintaining a presence in the comics world (he is currently writing two of Marvel's flagship titles, X-Men and Ultimate Fantastic Four). His movie Frost Flowers, an erotic ghost story, is currently in production with Hadaly/Bluestar Pictures. He lives in London, England, about as far as you can get from the centre of the city and still have access to the London Underground train network. His wife, Linda, writes fantasy for young readers under the pseudonym A.J. Lake. They have three children and an implausibly beautiful cat.

Its the follow up to the end of messiah complex. The story of what happened to Charles Xavier. I finished the book in an hour or so and I`m still waiting for the next one. It is really great and it completes a gap in the messiah storyline.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beginning A Great Extended Arc For Charles Xavier
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2022
Reprinting X-Men: Legacy #s 208-212, this is when the ongoing title went from being just X-Men to being X-Men: Legacy, a book with a tighter focus around, and in many ways a solo title for, Charles Xavier. At the time this volume begins, Charles is in very bad shape. At the end of the epic Messiah Complex crossover event, he was shot in the head by Bishop, one of his own former X-Men. Following this he's taken in, nearly brain dead, by Exodus and other former members of the Acolytes, the mutant group that pretty much worshiped Magneto. His brain has ben partly pulped from the gunshot, but is still functioning somehow, resisting Exodus's attempts to telepathically link up while, oblivious to the world around him, Charles is reliving key moments from his life, although in a mixed-up, out-of-order way.

The Acolytes bring in the former Magneto, Erik Lehnsherr, who they now hold in contempt since he was depowered in the House Of M event, and essentially is no longer a mutant. Despite their disdain for him, the group thinks that Erik may be able to reach some part of Charles's dormant consciousness where they have thus far failed. Without saying too much, Xavier does eventually regain consciousness, but his mind is muddled. Memories that used to be clear to him are now mixed up and hard to make sense out of. Memories that he didn't know he'd blocked--or were blocked for him--start to come to the surface.

This is just the beginning of a complicated journey for Xavier back to lucidity, and to grips with his conscience for things he's done that he now regrets, and this journey provides a strong focus for X-Men Legacy through the coming issues and collections. The art in this book is sensational. They've brought together a host of great artists both to revisit some of the key moments in X-history and to chronicle the new path the book is stepping onto. This is a great collection of material from a very strong period for X-Men and the related books, recommended for anyone who's even a casual X-Men fan, and even more recommended for the diehard X-fan.

4.0 out of 5 stars shattered memories
Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2012
Xavier has lost most of his memories and in order to unveil a deep, dark secret he must first go tru some of the most iconic moments in x-history.

This is the follow up to messiah complex, a story which also is a follow up to the decimation and the events of house of M. As most of this stories, it revolves around the changes that are happening in the continuity of the x-men universe. There book has plenty of cameos and references to previous story lines, this is a true treat to the x-fans, in my opinion, "divided he stands" has been the most successful story at doing that.

Although, like all of these post-no more mutants stories, "divided he stands" feels inconclusive and slightly exploited. Nevertheless, it manages to do a swell job exploring characterization and mythos.

Entertaining read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Aftermath
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2008
In the wake of Messiah CompleX, X-Men founder Professor Xavier was gravely injured. Now he's in for the fight of his life, as he struggles to regain what he's lost, without his X-Men to back him up. Divided He Stands collects the first few issues of the re-titled X-Men Legacy, with Mike Carey (Hellblazer, Ultimate Fantastic Four) at the helm. While the story of Divided He Stands is really nothing new, it does begin the process of picking up the pieces left behind in the aftermath of Messiah CompleX, in a world where the X-Men have disbanded. Not to mention that the tale ends up being pretty harrowing to boot. The real highlight of Divided He Stands are the artwork contributions from Scot Eaton, John Romita Jr., Billy Tan, Mike Deodato, and Greg Land; all of whom turn in excellent work. All in all, Divided He Stands is definitely worth checking out, as the direction of the post-Messiah CompleX X-Men universe begins to take shape.

Not much of action but i don't care . Sometimes too much action gets boring . This one more about Charles xavier trying to get peace with what he's done in the past and trying to remember his past. Really interesting backstory but kind of confusing if you haven't read the old comics but you'll still understand most of it. It's really philosophical too .

If you interesting in more backstory of prof. X. This one is for you and also this takes place directly after messiah complex.
