Where to start reading x-men comics. "X-Men

Not so long ago, another part of the film franchise about the owners of the X-gene died down in cinemas "X-Men: Days of Future Past" and this no doubt spurred public interest not only in the original trilogy Bryan Singer but also to literary origins. The problem is that Marvel has always had an abundance of X-Men comics, and now the number of X-series is off the charts. We decided to try to understand all this disgrace and present a kind of introductory course for beginners, although it may be useful for more experienced readers.

X-Men Masterworks Vol.1 (1963)

Of course, the more time passes, the more difficult it is to read and perceive old comics. But in this case, an exception will have to be made, since the main and most important stories in the life of the X-Men took place in the 70s and 80s. And since we are considering the launch pad, it would be logical to start with the very first X-Men comic, in which almost all the fundamental principles were laid down, which later served as the foundation for building the current X-Men Universe.

Here, for the first time, the question of coexistence is raised, the struggle of non-violent protest against aggression and the confrontation between Professor X and Magneto. In addition, it is in this comic from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby debuted Brotherhood of Mutants, which included Mercury and Scarlet Witch.

Well, as a small bonus: a special invited guest ... drumroll ... Avengers! By the way, this is the very first meeting of the two teams, which later intersected in a huge number of different crossovers and events.

Marvel Masterworks: Uncanny X-Men Vol. 1 (1975)

By the mid-seventies, there was a slight crisis in the camp of the X-Men. The publisher closed the main series and significantly reduced the number of reprints of old comics. Breathed new life into the team Chris Claremont and set a slightly different development vector for the X-Men. Unlike the previous comics, here the characters are no longer teenagers, but quite adult people with their own formed worldview. And this, in general, becomes the cause of conflict within the team itself, against the background of the ongoing confrontation with the rest of the world. Each character has his own view of what is happening and it does not always coincide with the opinions of others.

The history of Claremont turned out to be exciting, unpredictable, dynamic and very bright. In addition, it was this wound that led readers to perhaps the most tragic story in the entire existence of the X-Men - the Dark Phoenix Saga. If the first volume is to your liking, then we advise you to read the second part of Uncanny X-Men vol.2, but this is already as additional reading.

X-Men: The Dark Phoenix Saga (1980)

This work by Chris Claremont, co-authored with John Burn, who also performed here as an artist, is considered to be almost the best comic book about the X-Men. In general, the stories about the X-Men have always raised some pretty interesting questions, and in this comic, Claremont and Byrne showed how limitless power can destroy even the best of us. A very tragic and touching story. In addition, several new mutants debuted here, including kitty pride, Sebastian Shaw and Emma Frost. But don't worry, action fans have something to see here too, because the events of the comic take place against the backdrop of a large-scale intergalactic conflict, in the center of which is the unstoppable power of the Dark Phoenix, which has captured the mind of Jean Grey.

X-Men: Days of Future Past (1981)

A small crossover from the same Claremont and Bern, who managed to become a cult long before the release of the film (unlike, for example, Batman Knightfall, which began to fall into all the guides solely thanks to Christopher Nolan's triquel). You have probably already watched the new film by Bryan Singer, but this does not mean at all that now this comic will be boring to read, on the contrary!

The thing is that, to be completely honest, Singer's film took only the name and a very rough idea from the comic book. You will be seriously surprised when you find out that Kitty Pryde actually went into the past and helped her in this with Rachel Summers, who was generally forgotten to be mentioned in the film. And a number of other characters like Wanda Maximoff and Sebatian Shaw simply did not survive the script, editing, or the previous part of the franchise (underline as necessary). In general, no double sensations and yawning, feel free to read.

X-Men: God Loves Man Kills (1982)

A graphic novel about the confrontation between the human race and mutants, which has reached its highest point. This topic has been played up many times in the X-Men comics, but it was here that this issue was most successfully revealed. Human hatred reached such proportions that the very survival of the mutant race was threatened, and after the kidnapping of Professor Xavier, the X-Men had to (again) team up with their longtime enemy - Magneto in the face of a common threat. In many ways, this comic served as the basis for one of the most successful films about the superhero team - X-Men 2. True, as in the case of the film "X-Men: Days of Future Past," Singer gave free rein to his imagination, although the general principles can still be traced and one can safely compare the two works. In general, a very strong and interesting story from the same Chris Claremont.

X-Men: Mutant Massacre (1986)

For a good 20 years, Marvel has gotten a little tired of the endless confrontation between humans and mutants and decided to add some pepper. In Mutant Massacre, for the first time, the confrontation between the good mutants from the X-Men team (and this is a reunion of the original five and the new team) with the bad mutants from the Marauder gang, which begins to kill their fellows with the X-gene, is described. By the way, here is the first meeting of Wolverine with his sworn enemy - Sabretooth, who to this day is the main antagonist in the stories about Logan and will be involved in his unenviable finale at the end of this year.

Well, as a small but very pleasant bonus - a special invited guest from Asgard - Thor!

X-Men: Inferno (1989)

Absolutely amazing covers and art from Mark Silvestri, Bret Blevins and Walter Simonson only add to this incredibly beautiful and powerful story, which became the final chapter in the history of Phoenix.

The concentration of events and the intensity of passions are simply off scale. Here is Cyclops' wife Madeleine Pryor, who becomes the Goblin Queen, makes a deal with a demon from Limbo and brings down real Hell on Earth. And on this occasion, three teams of mutants gather at once: X-Men, X-Factor and New Mutants. All this is complicated by the fact that Madeleine is a clone of Jean Gray and Cyclops is forced to kill the woman he loves with all his heart in order to save the world (remember anything?). Separately, it is worth highlighting the epic and exciting battles, especially the final one against Mister Sinister. A definite must-read, especially if you miss really spectacular action in modern comics.

X-Men: Age of Apocalypse (1995-1996)

This year, the Marvel publishing house closed absolutely all X-Men-related comics for four months and instead launched mini-series of 4 issues each for this period. The overall story was about an alternate future in which, after the death of Professor X at the hands of his own son Legion, Magneto takes over and this indirectly allows Apocalypse to take over the world.

The link here is Bishop, who can travel through time and uses his knowledge to unite several teams of mutants at once in the fight against the Apocalypse and his Horsemen. This is the first time the X-Men have faced such a formidable foe, and they will need absolutely every resource they can find.

There are a lot of unexpected twists and turns in this story, castling, and it is not surprising that it will form the basis of the new picture from the Fox studio. By the way, Bishop was officially introduced in the latest X-Men: Days of Future Past movie, but it's likely that the original plot, as in the case of DMB, may undergo significant changes, which is why we strongly recommend that you familiarize yourself with this story from the first hands and not wait until 2015.

New X-Men: E for Extinction (2001)

So we got to more or less modern comics, but do not rush to rejoice ahead of time, because we have the work of a very difficult author. In my time Grant Morrison was invited to Marvel to breathe new life into the history of X, and it must be said that he did it one hundred percent. E for Extinction is the title of the first arc that Morrison started his collaboration with Frank Quaatli ran about the X-Men.

Here, for the first time, Cassandra Nova(Xavier's twin sister), who dusted off the Guardians and, with a light hand, staged a genocide on the island of Genosha. By the way, in the same year, Wizard Magazine recognized Cassandra as the "Villain of the Year" just for the events of this arc.

In addition, it was in Morrison's wound that the X-Men radically changed their style, abandoning the usual spandex in favor of leather jackets, and Wolverine, in turn, acquired a more casual appearance. But these are not the only changes that have affected the X-Universe.

In subsequent releases, the theme of secondary mutation was developed, a new Weapon Plus program was added and its result is a Fantomex fan favorite. Morrison did not bypass the dramatic component, twisting the love triangle between Cyclops, Jean Gray and ... no, not Wolverine, but Emma Frost, who miraculously survived the attack on Genosha. You could say that a new era of the X-Men started around here.

House of M (2005)

One of the brightest and most powerful stories about the X-Men. In 2005, Brian Michael Bendis decided to take a break from the Avengers and dive into the world of mutants. House of M turned out to be a fairly large-scale event with a huge number of tie-ins, preludes, and so on. But in fact, the main story easily fits into 8 issues, so if you want to significantly reduce the reading time, you can safely skip all the side comics, they do not have a significant impact on the main plot.

The story itself tells about the mental breakdown, perhaps the most powerful mutant on Earth - the Scarlet Witch, who, not without the prompting of her brother Pietro, creates an alternative reality in which mutants rule the world, and each of the characters in the story has somewhat changed their roles.

Quicksilver is understandable, as the X-Men and Captain America seriously discussed killing Wanda in order to prevent any adverse effects of her impending madness, but keeping this utopia built on lies proved very difficult.

The young mutant Layla Miller alternately returns the memory of the main characters and now Wanda and Pietro have to answer a number of unpleasant questions. The story really learned very rich and with a huge number of cameos from other teams, whether it was Doctor Strange or Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy or the already mentioned Captain America, and had a huge impact on the X-Universe as a whole. Definitely a must-read!

X-Men: Second Coming (2010)

In 2010, Matt Fraction decided to shake up the X-Men a bit and give them a couple of reasons to reunite in the face of a common threat. It's very difficult to retell the plot of this convoluted story, but the plot is that Cable and Hope Summers come from the future to the present, where they are not very welcome. Particularly suspicious representatives of the human race decide to kill Hope just in case, but a few mutants decide to help her just in case.

The next confrontation between people and mutants lasted for five months, and along the way, fans were deprived of several old-timers of the X-Men universe at once, however, as we know, death in comics is a relative concept and the farther, the more relative. The story actually turned out to be rich in events, so if you like very meaningful action, then this crossover will suit your taste. In any case, the main issues of the story are worth reading before starting your journey in Marvel NOW!

What's next?

If you don’t know which of the modern titles to pay attention to, but want to keep abreast of the latest events, then, perhaps, your choice is ongoing All-New X-Men, this is a great entry point for a newcomer to Marvel NOW! If this is not enough for you, then you can start also Amazing X-Men, relaunched last December. Then you can try your luck with Uncanny X-Men and Uncanny X Force.

We will not say anything about Wolverine's solo albums, because there is a separate guide for this, but you should definitely pay attention to them. For fans of the female half of the X-Men in Marvel prepared a whole series X-Men dedicated to the X-girls, but this is again an amateur. This is what a starter pack looks like for a novice X-Men fan, we hope you find it useful.

Bailey Hoskins always wanted to stand out, but didn't know how. When his parents told him he was a mutant, Bailey ended up at Xavier's school to find out what gift nature had given him. Unfortunately, Bailey's ability can only be used once, which will kill him and everyone around him. Yes, it is useless in combat. Meet the worst of the X-Men!

X-Men: Worst X-Man Ever

Genre: parody superhero
Screenwriter: Max Beamis
Painter Story by: Michael Walsh
Original Output: 2016
publishing house: Comilfo, 2019

Everyone has dreamed of having a superpower at some point. To be able to lift cars, read minds, control the weather or heal any wounds and not age. These are cool, useful abilities, but who said yours would be the same? Would you get covered in nasty blue scabs that dissolve everything you touch, or could you only use your superpower once, blowing yourself up and everything around you?

Just the last superpower went to Bailey Hoskins, in every respect an ordinary guy. All his life he wanted to stand out with something, and when he got the chance to become one of the X-Men, the young man was delighted. But with his strange superpower, Bailey could not find a place either in the main team or in its many offshoots. And even among peers - the brother and sister of the Rich Man and the Ragged Woman, who have really useful abilities (creating gold from nothing and destroying matter), - he does not find recognition.

Ironically, it is Bailey who invites Xavier Miranda to the school - a mutant with unlimited possibilities (control of time and space, creation and destruction of life). Miranda doesn't want to fight Magneto or change the world, she just has nowhere to go, and she joins the X-Men because it's... well, cool. Even more ironically, it is Hoskins who is targeted by Mystique from the Brotherhood of Mutants, trying to play on his inexperience and frustration and persuade him, no less, to kill Professor Xavier.

Since the reader is always looking through Bailey's eyes, it's easy to empathize with the guy. Everyone was once a newcomer to the team, everyone at least once felt worthless among experienced and determined colleagues. Bayley's peers are also revealed - Rich Man, Ragged and Miranda. But the rest of the mutants are needed here only as targets for countless postmodernist gags. The script does not take into account the chronology of events in the main series, the heroes here will be in the most stereotypical, canned images. Wolverine - sharp and rude, Cyclops - strict and arrogant, Beast - wise and understanding, Magneto - mysteriously plotting something wrong behind Xavier's back.

Among the jokes there are both frankly cheap and quite witty, for the understanding of which, however, you need to be familiar with the X-Men universe. Will the Juggernaut stop the endless fall? What happened to the hype characters from the nineties - a clone of Magneto Joseph or X-Man, Cable from an alternative reality? Which X-Men will do well if their enemies triumph? Which of the X-teams is the most useless (and are there any useful ones at all)? How does the continuum itself maintain the status quo in comics? To all these questions, The Worst of the X-Men provides original answers, ridiculing the contradictions and inconsistencies that have grown in the universe over the past forty years.

The comic may be recommended to beginners who are ready to plunge into the vast history of the Charles Xavier school, but its graduates who do not miss annual meetings will enjoy it the most. "The Worst of the X-Men" is an original friendly banter about the idea of superpowers in general and the X-gen in particular. The simple but solid script by Max Beamis harmonizes with the pleasant drawing of Michael Walsh, which at the end gives an excellent comedy story about an alternate reality of the most popular mutant team.

If you're tired of endless "epochal events" that don't change anything, this comic will help you relax and get distracted. A witty look at the universe, which lacked just such an easy, ironic alternative reality. Definitely not the worst X-Men comic.

The Marvel Universe has thousands of comics, and it is not easy for a new reader to decide which issues to start with and in what order to read the issues.

You don't have to start from the very first issues, we offer 4 different starting points from which you can plunge into the Marvel comics universe.

Starting points:

The very beginning is for the most daring and inquisitive
Avengers Disassembled
Marvel NOW!
All-New All-Different Marvel

Let's take them in order:

The very beginning

If you are very serious and want to fully experience the entire Marvel universe, then you should start with the very first releases. But, to be honest, this method is not suitable for everyone. You will be able to survive all the events and learn everything about the heroes, but for this you will need to master thousands and thousands of issues. If you are not too lazy to read them all, then the list starts a little lower on this page and consists of 10 parts. Enjoy reading!

If you're more interested in the modern era of Marvel, then this is a good place to start. The Avengers Disassembled event in 2004 has spawned many major crossover events. To start reading from here, go to the section and start reading episodes by event in the order listed in the Timeline, starting with Avengers Disassembled.

If you don't want to limit yourself to just the events and want to read the episodes that came out between the events, then head over to and start reading from the episodes of the event

Issues of New X-Men #114-156 immediately precede Avengers Breakup, and also serve as a good introduction to modern X-Men comics, so we recommend that you start reading from them.

If you prefer, you can start reading with Uncanny X-Force #1-35 (2010) to help you better understand what's going on in Marvel NOW!. You can also read the editions of the event Avengers vs X-Men, the last major significant event leading up to Marvel NOW!.

All-New All-Different Marvel

The most recent point of reference is after the Secret Wars (2015) event. All series have been relaunched, allowing new readers to start reading from here.

The order of Marvel comics since the very first issue

Welcome to the Marvel Universe. Here you will find that sequence of Marvel comics that is considered important or just a pleasure to read. Launched in 2004 and Avengers Disassembled, this order is the most comprehensive and includes all major series. Starting with Marvel NOW! this sequence includes the entirety of Marvel comics.

Golden and Silver Age comics can be difficult to read, while the plots are based on an astonishing amount of chance and characters change from issue to issue. For those who don't like the earliest issues, it's a good idea to jump ahead a little, say 70 -e.

The characters' first appearances indicated in the earliest issues do not necessarily represent their chronologically earliest appearance.

Biography X-Men (X-Men) - Marvel comics

During World War II, a telepathic mutant, Charles Xavier, and his friend Eric Lehnsher, who has the ability to control metal objects, dreamed of a good future for mutants.

People continued to despise and fear them, so Charles Xavier formed an institute specifically for mutants. The very first students were Scott Summers (Cyclops), Jean Gray (Phoenix), Warren Worthington III (Angel), Bobby Drake (Iceman) and the latest mutant Henry McCoy (Beast).

In 1969, author Roy Thomas, together with illustrator Neil Adams, decided to add young characters to the team with the help of two mutants - Cyclops' brother Alex Summers (Havok) and Lorna Dane (Polaris), with the ability to control electromagnetic energy. You can read X-Men comics without registration in Russian on the website online.

By creating a supercomputer to search for mutants called "Cerebro", Xavier managed to find many mutants around the world, among which the most popular are the Canadian James Howlett (Wolverine), the Frenchman Remy LeBeau (Gambit), the Russian Peter Rasputin (Colossus) and Aurore Monroe (Storm ) from a fictional country called Wakanda. In this way, Xavier managed to create a team that continued to grow over time. However, during its existence, the X-Men team also had enemies.

Charles's former friend Eric Lehnsher, who could never forgive mankind for hating mutants, took the name Magneto and created his own team called the Brotherhood of Mutants, which fights for domination of the world and the destruction of mankind. The Brotherhood included villainous mutants such as Raven Darkholme (Mystique), Mortimer Toynbee (Frog), Wanda Maximoff (Red Witch), Pietro Maximoff (Quicksilver), Kane Marco (Juggernaut), and Frederic Dukes (Bubble).

While none of the members of the Brotherhood can imagine a life together between humans and mutants, each of the X-Men believes that the day will come when humans and mutants will live in one world.

X-Men Masterworks Vol.1 (1963)

Marvel Masterworks: Uncanny X-Men Vol. 1 (1975)

X-Men: The Dark Phoenix Saga (1980)

X-Men: Days of Future Past (1981)

X-Men: God Loves Man Kills (1982)

A graphic novel about the confrontation between the human race and mutants, which has reached its highest point. This topic has been played up many times in the X-Men comics, but it was here that this issue was most successfully revealed. Human hatred reached such proportions that the very survival of the mutant race was threatened, and after the kidnapping of Professor Xavier, the X-Men had to (again) team up with their longtime enemy Magneto in the face of a common threat. In many ways, this comic served as the basis for one of the most successful films about the superhero team - "X-Men 2". True, as in the case of the film "X-Men: Days of Future Past," Singer gave free rein to his imagination, although the general principles can still be traced and one can safely compare the two works. In general, a very strong and interesting story from the same Chris Claremont.

X-Men: Mutant Massacre (1986)

For a good 20 years, Marvel has gotten a little tired of the endless confrontation between humans and mutants and decided to add some pepper. In Mutant Massacre, for the first time, the confrontation between the good mutants from the X-Men team (and this is a reunion of the original five and the new team) with the bad mutants from the Marauder gang, which begins to kill their fellows with the X-gene, is described. By the way, the first meeting of Wolverine with his sworn enemy - Sabretooth, who to this day is the main antagonist in the stories about Logan and will be involved in his unenviable finale at the end of this year, also takes place here.

Well, as a small but very pleasant bonus - a special invited guest from Asgard - Thor!

X-Men: Inferno (1989)

X-Men: Age of Apocalypse (1995-1996)

New X-Men: E for Extinction (2001)

So we got to more or less modern comics, but do not rush to rejoice ahead of time, because we have the work of a very difficult author. In my time Grant Morrison was invited to Marvel to breathe new life into the history of X, and it must be said that he did it one hundred percent. E for Extinction is the name of the first arc that Morrison started his collaboration with Frank Quaatli ran about the X-Men.

In subsequent issues, the theme of secondary mutation was developed, a new Weapon Plus program was added, and its result is a Fantomex fan favorite. Morrison did not bypass the dramatic component, twisting the love triangle between Cyclops, Jean Gray and ... no, not Wolverine, but Emma Frost, who miraculously survived the attack on Genosha. You could say that a new era of the X-Men started around here.
