wolverine is forever jumping over several sharks.
As for prof. I mean I never fully understood exodus power so maybe he really can heal people up the way he did to the professor. I certainly know he can heal himself up. After what dust did to him he should be mincedmeat but whatever. i’m glad prof isn’t dead that means it won’t be long before he makes another x team.
Exodus is just a high level psionic. He can do just about anything with his powers including ressurrecting people. He’s brought acolytes that have died back to life (always off panel though).
Aw, X-Men comics have always been silly. That’s just part of the hook. People are always dying and coming back, traveling through time, encountering alternate realities, getting replaced by IMPOSTERS, switching sides, and banging Mystique. You either just roll with it or read something else.
I can only except this from the xmen comic’s. Because there powers are so ridiculous, There not over the top like alot of the DC people but there out there.
They’re equally broken IMO, I think that DC chars are broken in more simple ways.
Is Adam Warlock actually interesting in the Infinity Watch comics, because throughout all the Infinity Sagas, he does very little?
The X Men are always broken. If you are a psychic mutant chances are you are completely broken.
“I just severed your brains contact to your everything”
I’m pretty sure once an issue White Queen says that. Psychic Powers are just dressed down magical plot devisers.
Cable was broken, but they gave him something to make him less broken.
Then they decided what the hell, lets make Nate Grey, Cable without the handicap!
Now there was a broken character!
And he ended up being too broken for his own good. He’s out there.
DeadPool’s the most broken; his mouth alone can beat any psychic attack of any kind launched at him.
I’ve just recently gotten into comics (specifically X-Men) thanks to a friend and have always been a fan of them since the early 90’s from the cartoon, games, toys to trading cards but never really the comics themselves due to me not being able to take care of them when my parents would buy them for me and preferring the cartoon over them cause I hated reading when I was a lot younger lol. I do remember my first comic, it was X-Men #25 Fatal Attractions with the Holographic Card on the cover and Magneto pulling Wolverine’s adamantium skeleton on the cover, it was gdlk. :amazed:
The problem I’m having at the moment is deciding what X-Men comic to plunge into and devote my time reading as there are so many series and alternate time lines, spin offs etc, bit overwhelming but Wikipedia has helped. 
I’ve recently read my first TPB “The Dark Phoenix Saga” and followed that up with “Civil War” and wow good stuff there. :tup: I’m currently reading House of M, Fatal Attractions and have Messiah Complex, the rest of Civil War and Maximum Carnage (Spider-Man) lined up next. Wanted to ask the SRK’ers if they could share a list of X-Men comics to avoid or recommend some good reads, AoA seems to be popular and they had all the TPB’s at my local comic shop.
What are people’s opinions/thoughts on X-Men: Legacy? a.k.a. “X-Men” “New X-Men” “X-Men Volume 2” “Adjectiveless X-Men” a.k.a. to many damn names lol. 
As I’ve been thinking of purchasing the TPB’s for the series since I’m enjoying Fatal Attractions quite a bit at the moment and it takes place in that series.
Thanks in advance. 
fatal attractions was an awesom story line house of M civil war… not so much. It’s not even that i hate the ideas bendis has but his main flaw is. he doesn’t know how to end his storylines. house of M could’ve had the same end result but with a better battle at the end something that made a little more sense.
Civil War set us up for an AMAZING battle and it just didn’t deliver in the end. As i said the result could’ve still been the same… but the end was very abrupt. And likewise with bendis run on new avengers… although that was more like … new avengers get into some shit and then “hey let’s get another team to bail us out of our mess… again.”
Stories to avoid? Deadly genesis was stupid… there i said it… and i dont care if you guys throw potatoes at me… it was retarded. there are plenty of other ways to set up that professor X misused his powers and kept secrets using his current cast and not introducing or for the stories sake (re introducing) vulcan’s team.
Dark pheonix was great… Messiah complex has it’s moments.
If you are gonna read any old story lines read AOA. You owe it to yourself to read that. Artwork was on point the story was amazing and coherent the battles were feirce <-- I’m gay.
and also read New xmen from after house of M to current if you can. that is some god teir story telling.
Does the Weapon X arc count?
has the last issue of Astonishing xmen even come out yet? I remember them spoiling it big time in the latest issue of uncanny
Didn’t Mark Millar write Civil Wars?
X-Force #5 will feature
Archangel…
Different tastes, I suppose. I’m not really down with any '90s X-Men stuff. Fatal Attractions, Age of Apocalypse, stuff like that was why I stopped reading and buying for years. I tried re-reading some of the stuff I liked when I was a kid, like Mutant Massacre, X-Cutioner’s Song, and X-Tinction Agenda. Hasn’t aged well.
I hate how crossovers that start out with decent plot ideas just get executed poorly. Even when a couple chapters are on point, one of the titles is bound to drop the soap. Messiah CompleX had the same problem. Nice idea, great writing from David, Bru, and Carey… But then every fourth chapter by Kyle/Yost was a clear letdown in terms of quality. Makes it tough to want to buy the TRADE, BABY.
I’m sure most everyone who likes X-Men will say Claremont’s the only one who matters. I guess, maybe, perhaps his '70s and '80s stuff is all right to read, if only to get a feel of the team’s history. But I don’t think you’re missing much if you don’t read it all.
The seminal modern X-Men run to read is still Grant Morrison’s New X-Men. Whedon/Cassaday on Astonishing is pretty great. I’m also a big fan of BKV’s Ultimate X-Men and Joe Casey’s all too brief run on Uncanny (right before Chuck Austen).
The current X-Books are generally about as good as they’ve ever been, other than Excalibur and Exiles. But Uncanny, Legacy, X-Factor have all been pretty nice.
If Wolverine Origins can be treated as one of the X-Books; READ ORIGINS 24 NOW!
Seriously even if you hate Logan to death, JUST READ THIS ISSUE IT IS AWESOME!
Am I the only one who didn’t like it?
Gonna go read Divided we Stand #1…
