The 10 Best X-Men Stories of the 2010s!

August 31, 2019 by Matt Lehn Leave a Comment

It’s not always easy being the X-Men. As advertised, they are “hated and feared by a world they’re sworn to protect.” However, they are also capable of selling millions of comics and becoming household names.

Indeed, their very publication history would graph with quite the insane peaks and valleys of popularity- from cancellation and reprint limbo to perpetuating one of the most unwieldy multi-title franchises.

That being said, it’s truly been some time since fans have been genuinely excited about Marvel’s Children of the Atom. All that has recently changed with the launch of Jonathan Hickman’s slate-cleaning take-over as the intertwining mini-series House of X and Powers of X currently unfold and astound.

Nimrod (X-Men) Reading Order

August 29, 2019 by Dave Leave a Comment

Nimrod – named for the Biblical “mighty hunter” – is the ultimate manifestation of the Sentinel dream, a near all-powerful intelligent machine created to destroy mutants. Whereas mutant villains like Magneto or Apocalypse mean the X-Men have a fighting chance, Nimrod shows up to indicate the entire mutant race has all but lost the war.

Krakin’ Krakoa: Secrets of House of X!

August 8, 2019 by Dave Leave a Comment

Writer Jonathan Hickman’s return to Marvel Comics with the two-series X-Men event House of X and Powers of X is the most discussed series in superhero comics this year (and then some). The passion and theorizing around these transformative comics is like nothing I’ve seen in fandom, and so far, it’s bringing all the best aspects of loving superhero comics to the forefront.

While I’d agree these are compelling entry points into the world of X-Men, I also see dense, multi-layered stories full of references that newer or lapsed readers might not follow. Or even references that longtime readers may have simply forgotten (I know I’ve had plenty of those recently with Grant Morrison and Liam Sharp’s hyper-referential The Green Lantern).

Professor X Reading Order!

August 7, 2019 by Dave Leave a Comment

Professor Charles Xavier is one of the most complex characters in the Marvel Universe, equal parts warm father figure and scheming manipulator. Although he’s well known as the telepathic leader of the X-Men, Professor X is also a deeply complicated individual trying to solve the endlessly complex challenge of mutant and human relations.
