If you ever run out of ideas for a cover, just have the whole team bust through something. |

It's pretty rare to see a cover with this much pink. I like red covers better, but it looks good to me. |

Great cover by Perez and Austin. And can it really be over 40 years ago that I bought this comic off a newsstand? |

This is the first Kitty Pride (Emma Frost and the White Queen too). Another double dose.  |

I received this one in another trade with another CBCS forum friend (thanks, Ryan). Dazzling isn't it? |

| Loving that Byrne, Claremont, Austin run. It's amazing how they went from reprints and on the verge of being cancelled to the number 1 comic. To sounds like an old man, now they'd have rebooted six times and you'd have shown us at least 6 numbers 1 issues. Now get off my lawn! <shakes fist> |

The Dark Phoenix Saga continues - must reading for any comic book fan (but I am not a huge fan of this cover). |

Wolverine slices and dices a bunch of the Hellfire Club's elite group of weirdly costumed killer guards in this issue! Does anyone else think they look like crash-test dummies? |

Another cover swipe (or a swipeable cover?). |

The ninth and final part of the Dark Phoenix Saga. Epic. |

Scott leaves (no one really cares) and more guest appearances than there are variants for Detective #1000 (okay, maybe not that many. |

Kitty Pride joins, but the big news is that we find out that Wolverine's first name is Logan, and he gets a new costume. |

Quote:Originally Posted by esaravo I always loved how the logo still has the damage done from the previous issue. That's attention to detail. A remarkable storyline and one of my favorites. Growing up, I had the X-Men Classic version of 137. I had no idea what was going on in it or why the X-Men were fighting on the moon but I read and re-read it til it fell apart. |

| This is such an awesome accomplishment. I wish the latest Xmen incarnation was as good as these older runs. I may be in the minority, but I have not been impressed with Hickman's run. | ||

| Thank you, each and every one of you. Should I keep going? Maybe stop at 150 or 200? What do you think? | ||

| At least 141 and 142. Then a smattering of whatever you want. My honeypot of X-Men would be about 205-281. The JR Jr, Silvestri, Lee era was when X-Men came onto my radar. | ||

| My vote is to keep going. I’m loving seeing these covers. I got i to them right about 143, and unfortunately missed the Phoenix saga in real time. This might be blasphemy, but I noticed Claremont definitely borrowed his ideas from other sources. Brood first Alien, etc... And those mid 80s costumes are a little tough to look at it, but it’s a great blast from the past! |

Quote:Originally Posted by Hcanes You are not alone! I’ve been trying to give it some time, but I’m just not moved by it. I truly think the continuity was just too much for any writer. Funny thing is I liked Hickmans run on Avengers, but he seems to recycle some key points: teleportation, character wearing a helmet all the time, some kind of garden, very cosmic in scale, etc... I’ll give it a year, but I’m a little disappointed. |
