Uncanny X-Men by Kieron Gillen Omnibus
Kieron Gillen masterminds a tumultuous era for the X-Men!
Beast and Abigail Brand must save the alien-monitoring SWORD agency when Henry Peter Gyrich stages a coup! But down on Earth, how will the X-Men explain themselves when the public learns Magneto has joined the team? Making matters worse, a Breakworld warship arrives on a vengeance-filled mission — and when Asgardian black magic empowers the Juggernaut, he becomes more unstoppable than ever! Then, after the X-Men are torn in two, Cyclops leads a new “Extinction Team” of heavy hitters — including Storm, Emma Frost, Namor, Colossus, Magik and Magneto! And not moment too soon as world-ending threats are mounting quickly — including Mister Sinister harnessing the power of a Dreaming Celestial! When the Phoenix Force returns, the X-Men clash with the Avengers — and the consequences are cataclysmic for Cyclops!

I'm going to get to Greg Land's art but first the good
I really enjoyed this period of X-Men, I think Gillen has always shown a great grasp with the team. I enjoyed seeing Scott becoming more revolutionary and all the arcs were wins in my opinion. Absolutely loved seeing the start of Sinister's more theatrical personality, he's been one of my favorite x-villains for years and it's great seeing where his personality shift began. SWORD was a fun miniseries but AVX Consequences was a phenomenal mini, and it works perfectly as an ending for this Omnibus. Aside from my upcoming target, all the art was pretty good too.
Now for Greg Land. I have been fortunate that in all my many comic book readings his art hasn't shown up often for me. This is because his art is awful and due to his limited ability to illustrate, it often would throw me out of the story. This is because he is well know for being a blatant tracer (this isn't just using other art as reference, this is just objectively copying), so the characters are always following something he traced and not what they should actually be doing in the story. And if you weren't aware, he traces lots of porn. This also creates the issue where all the women have the same face, and they all are drawn incredibly lewd. Just look up his art if you're curious. It's very frustrating to have Magik and Emma Frost look identical just because they're both blonde and he can't draw women's facial features. Rant over.
In summation, very fun X-Comics, just please don't let Greg Land ruin it.
