You wanted it, you demanded it, the task nearly cost me my sanity, but here it is. This is the first of five videos that will cover - or damn nearly cover - every in-continuity X-Men-related series ever published. This first video covers the main team's monthly series and notable limited series and specials. The next videos will tackle the other X-Teams, Wolverine, Deadpool and other solo series. The goal is to offer an understanding of the sixty years of the team, their high and low points, where to begin reading the X-Men and where to follo afterwards. These are every X-Men run, series and phase.
The essential reading order goes as follows:
Lee/Kirby's Run
Thomas/Adams' Run
Claremont/Byrne/Cockrum's Run
Solo Claremont's Run
80s crossovers
Early 90s crossovers
Morrison's Run
Whedon's Run
Brubaker's Run
Carey's Run
Late 2000s crossovers
Gillen's Run
Aaron's Run
Bendis's Run
Hickman's Run
Top Ten ranks as follows:
10 - Carey's Run
9 - Mutant Genesis
8 - Messiah Complex
7 - House of M
6 - Mutant Massacre
5 - Giant Size + Claremont/Cockrum's Run
4 - Hickman's Run
3 - Whedon's Run
2 - Morrison's Run
1 - Claremont/Byrne's Run
