  • very interesting commentary!!

  • wish they would make professor x a likable character again

  • only good x men were 70's 80's 90's characters

    now its just shit now

  • Dude, what wrong with you mic? It sounded as if it had cancer! But did Mystique join the X-Men and later betray them?

  • your microphone sucks balls this time

  • That is one of the reasons why the 90s X-men cartoon is so beloved. I still have not seen a x-men animated show that the characters grown on you like the 90s one did. and i doubt they will be one because the x-men are not in like it was in a few years ago.

  • Xmen are my favorite Marvel. I like they are born with their powers. they dont get their powers through radiation (baring a few references in the 'early days'). Its interesting that in the 60s Xmen was the 'other' Marvel title. but in the 70s and on it became the main Marvel flag ship. I agree Magneto does play both sides of the fence, and I kinda like that. I also like that the xmen take on a lot of social issues.

  • Giant Size Xmen 1 and on with the Clairmont stuff.

    but the early stan lee Jack Kirby early work is classic xmen stuff.. thats my recomendation.

  • Actually, if you read Claremont's run post Uncanny 200 both Cyclops and Prof X are off the team for like 5 years real time (from like issue 200-280 I think). Claremont wanted Scott to be happily retired but of course Marvel editorial wouldn't let that happen.

  • alot of Calaremont's desires either got diverted or only told later on. such as Sabertooth being Wolverine's father NEVER got told. with Orign (and espesily the movie) hinting they are half brothers. Claremont wanted it revealed that Mystic and Destiny were lovers but couldnt until well into the 80s or so.

  • @deadman00 Ironically the first thing he did in X-Men Forever was kill Wolverine which suggests that he didn't even want to keep Wolverine on the book for as long as he did.

    I did like how whenever Wolverine had a miniseries or another adventure to go off on he'd leave the book for however long it lasted. Imagine if Marvel tried to do that now.

  • Im only vaguly aware of his Xmen Forever. but I do know its not really mainstreat continuty.

    it dosent interest me as much as Ultimate Xmen does in terms of alternet xmen stories.

    true indeed. but hey they do whatever sells. and all that.

  • @TerryBogard675 That's not really true. He intended to make Scott happy and retired but then they brought back Jean Grey. 

  • @blowshimselfupdude Yeah they being Marvel Editorial. She got brought back for X-Factor which Claremont had no control over. He didn't join the real X-Men team (since X-Factor was something else completely) and Claremont kept him out of Uncanny as much as possible until the Jim Lee X-Men 1.

  • @TerryBogard675 It wasn't editorial. It was creator driven. Just not Claremont. 

  • @blowshimselfupdude

    I was always told that X-Factor was Shooter's idea. The X-Men were hitting it big and he wanted another X-Book. I could be wrong though. Regardless, the powers that be were never going to let Cyclops be retired forever anyway.

  • @TerryBogard675 I heard Claremont say it was a creative thing.

  • @blowshimselfupdude Do you like the Daredevil comics, i loved Last Rites parts 1-4

  • @blowshimselfupdude Im trying to get into the x men comics which comic book do you think that I should start out with

  • Yeah this is very true the only other one is John Constantine and he's not really a hero per say.

  • ok, ok. another interesting commentary. you should have spent a little more time giving examples about how specifically the x-men change so much rather than just offering comparisons to DC. but still, it was a good and interesting commentary.

  • The X-Men are the most EVOLVED superheroes indeed! Get it????

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...HA...Ha... ha..... ugh....

  • So what Uncanny X-men issues are you reading?

  • Every good team has Collosos. I may make a video about how he ages. Thats a serious continuity plot hole right there...

  • I love this Leader Cyclops, and your right on Emma Frost. People seem to forget she's been good since all the way back in Gen X

  • She still seems to be a bit of a skank at times.

    but maybe i just dont like that she took scott away for Jean.

  • @deadman00 yeah but skank=/=evil. She's been taking steps away from being stuck up

  • maybe. shes not a charture i personly like. but everyone has their own opinion.

  • Weird...same here...i've been like X-Meny for a while actually...I have a question...was John Constantine from Hellblazer bisexual? I was reading something about that and i was like wahhhh?

  • wiki John Constantine and he can be. whats wrong with that?

  • @deadman00 nothing, I'm bisexual, it's just that i've been reading Hellblazer for so long, never crossed my mind (as an a official form) in other ways of course, i mean, how can't you

  • Im gay myself so I like Northstar. (and Ultimate Colosos.)

    but according to wikipedia yeah Constantine did the deed with a dude. Im not sure at what point. Ud have to look it up on wiki.

  • @deadman00 God i hate how they treated Northstar and Colossus in Ultimate X-Men, although I loved the whole Nightcrawler story, it mixed things up very well with the other arcs

  • if ur speaking of what happens later I tend to ignore that and focus on the good stuff.

  • @deadman00 yeah but i can't do that, it's the storytelling...it's why i don't watch heroes anymore any episode becuase i know of the horrors they wrote the last three seasons...

  • well then all I can say is read a gay related superhero story that dosent upset u. and there are some out there.

    I have never seen Heros so I know nothing about it.

    I am however a big Smallville fan.

  • @deadman00 smallville too, i liked the first four or so seasons and then they didn't evolve...they were almost the same thing year after year except for eight...eight had some surprises in store...but then again, ten years and still going...that's a lot...

  • to each his own.

  • @deadman00 there are probably great stories in comics, books, series that do a better job than what Ultimate X-men did, just havn't found them yet, or they havn't been made yet

  • the audios kinda staticky
