Hello.
Back before Y2K, just before the bizzaro world where Rogue somehow had a kid without killing it and with Magneto of all mutants (still totally don't know how that happened? Did they handwave that shit? lol), my local comic shop shut down. Faced with this bizzaro world and going off to college, the only xmen exposure I got was the movies.
Until last fall, when I finally broke down and bought some comics. Wow, have things changed. I'm currently reading Astonishing X-men (release the next one already! ffs!) and X-men Legacy, which is very Roguecentric and making me happy (Particularly 234).
But I'd like to read a little of what I missed over the last decade. Are there any compilations or mini-arcs you'd recommend? Is Jean dead for realz this time?
My favorite Xmen are Rogue, Rogue, and Rogue (as if you couldn't tell, lol). I also like Gambit, Wolvie, Storm, and the other pre-2k regulars.
I figure I can buy a few comics now and more later this year, so suggest away. And what makes that mini-arc (or entire X-men subcomic) so awesome?
Cheers
