X-Men. El precio de un sueño

Synopsis of X-Men. El precio de un sueño

In 'The Price of a Dream', journalist Julián M. Clemente dissects and analyzes step by step all the stages of this peculiar group of comic book mutants, from their initial stumbles and missteps to their many moments of glory, dwelling on the inside story, the back-and-forth of cartoonists and scriptwriters, the interference or the free rein granted by editors or editors-in-chief, and analyzing all the phases that this title (and its multiple epigones, from The New Mutants to Factor X or the various and continuous mini-series of its characters) has been going through in its journey. It is undoubtedly a capital book, as it is formidably documented and provides both data and reflection, within an amenity and a sense of objectivity that is not at odds with passion. Clemente loves these comics, or otherwise he would not have invested a year and a half of his life in the preparation of this analysis, including first-hand interviews with the true protagonists of the comics, its authors.
