This week on “Previously On,” I explore Marvel’s “X-Men Milestones” collections, considering the selected events and whether they provide an adequate exploration of X-Men comics history. The inspiration for the column is inspired by the following question.
Joshua asks via the X-Men reading order:
This guide is incredible, thank you for putting it together! i’m interested in reading the messiah complex storylines and subsequent related arcs; do you think the three new milestones trades (messiah complex, messiah war, and second coming) do a good job of covering the necessary material? and should i also read the necrosha milestones trade in the middle of there somewhere?
is the story of Bruce Wayne being confronted with threats older than time and greater than reality. It’s the story of one man’s struggle to defeat evil that may come at the cost of his sanity.
