Recommended X-Men

Over the past 10 years.

Read Claremont, Morrison and Whedon.
Plan on reading No More Mutants all the way to Schism.

was Morrison good

Yeah, his run was pretty great.

Started strong then devolved into an out of character mess.

In terms of the main team you've already read the best ( and Whedon)

How about everybody else? Jubilee, Wolverine, Scott, etc.

Do yourself a favor and read Milligan's X-Force/X-Statix.

Wolverine has a ton of solo stuff, some of it is very good

Wolverine by Claremont and Frank Miller
Weapon X by Barry Windsor Smith
Wolveirne volume 1 by Claremont/Buscema, Goodwin/Byrne, and Hama/Silvestri and Texeira
Enemy of the State by Mark Millar and JRJR

If you want more Scott and Jean look to X-Factor written by Louise Simonson

I've been reading everything from the Morrison era to Uncanny Xmen/All New Xmen. Now I'm downloading Battle of the Atom.

kek

It's endearing that the Devil of Limbo has such ambitious evil intentions.

Read X-Club is you want more of dr. Nemesis.
Read Psylocke is you want to see ninjas and boobs.
X-Factor - The Quick and the Dead is good if you hate Pietro.

I know I'm going to get caught in some Bendis hate crossfire just for saying this,
BUT All-New X-Men is really-really good just as a stand-alone/introductory X-Men run.

I think All-New X-Men is the end of the line of something that began with House of M. I don't see it as an introduction.

Remender's Uncanny X Force is the best X book since Morrison

New X-Men was complete garbage. Turned me off to X-Men for YEARS. I hated the writing, the art, the black leather. Everything.

A group of iconic, identifiable, somewhat relatable, and important inexperienced teen X-Men show up and have the entire X-Men history spoonfed to them over the span of numerous typical classic X-Men adventures that introduce every major player in the X-Men's world.

That shit is all introduction.

This is true.

To be honest, reading it collected might make it better, I definitely didn't enjoy reading it while it was an ongoing.

For the most part. One of the artists later on in the run was rushed and it came out bad.

Not just that horrible art ruined it, Grant's always been hit-or-miss when he gets all Morrison-ey and hopped-up on his own brilliance.
If it wasn't such an amazingly important run that redefined the franchise, it'd be safe to say that it's mostly garbage.

the finale was weak but the rest was good.

reminder to read the Earth-X saga

How was Warren ellis's run?

I actually skipped that entirely and have never had cause to regret it.
To this day I have no idea what the whole GhostBox thing was about.
And it doesn't matter because nobody seems to source his canon for stories.

>To this day I have no idea what the whole GhostBox thing was about.
Mad Jim Jasper being mad.
Forge being mad.
Beast killing planet.
Cyclops forming Extreme X-Men.

>beast killing planet
What?!

Peter David's X-Factor. All runs on the title.

>BUT All-New X-Men is really-really good just as a stand-alone/introductory X-Men run.

Well I suppose if you want to start with the bottom of the well, then yeah, I suppose it is a good introductory X-men run since one can only go up.

>Plan on reading No More Mutants all the way to Schism.+ 0 post omitted.
Ouch
Are you going for completion, or good comics?

Are you suicidal and trying to push yourself over the edge?
Only reasonable excuse for reading Bendis X-Men.

That and stupidity.

Starting with Bendis' characterization is never a good idea, since it doesn't gel with what any other writers have done.

>Peter David's X-Factor. All runs on the title.
I thought X-Factor Investigations had really lost it by the last few years.
All-New was kinda cool, though.

>X-Men fight Forge and his creatures
>Beast tells Brand to use space laser on Ghost Box
>Ghost Box explodes and kills everything on that planet

Use this if you don't just want to read everything.

Weird. It's not terrible, but not great either.

How has Hopless' run been?

All-New? Storytime of Pain.

In a good way or a bad way?

hit or miss

Cable and X-Force was ok. All-New is horrible.
