    This was my favorite comic book series. I collected the entire set, every book from every storyline, and I read them all multiple times. Loved it, and I still think it would make an amazing animated movie.

    Man I remember this so clearly. Going to the comic shop and suddenly all the X-Men comics have been replaced? You couldn't keep it a surprise in this day and age, but I wish you could. Marvel comics struggled post Image, but this was definitely the peak of their 90s output. Great work guys! I look back on that period very fondly :)

    I started collecting comics during the Fatal Attractions and when Age of Apocalypse dropped my mind was BLOWN (in a good way). Taking 30 YEARS and flipping it into the best "What if...." story ever is superb and I still reread them. I collected the back stories as we well during the years to come. I was just saddened when the sales for the other back stories decreased so much they stopped making them. If only more of the back stories were created (hint, hint)

      I remember when _X-Men: Evolution_ looked like they were going to touch on _AoA,_ but then was cancelled. I never felt more "robbed" in my entire life. The animated series from the 90s had kind of a version of it I guess, but it definitely wasn't the same thing.

    @newdamage5945 3 года назад +2

    Got into X-men through the 90s X-men show but the first actual X-men comic I ever bought was X-men Chronicles# 2 which was part of the AOA storyline right off the stand in a grocery store in the mid 90s. It was the issue where Rogue chooses Magneto over Gambit (who was my favorite comic character). Her choice crushed me and even though it was in the middle of an alternate reality event I was instantly hooked and began devouring all the back issues of Claremont's run up through AOA. AOA changed my life forever and made me a lifelong comic collector. Still my favorite X-men event ever!

  • @alexr4208
    @alexr4208 4 года назад +2

    I bought almost all of these books. I thought I was tired of the X-Men, but then they do something brilliant like this. I think I still have most of them. There is also the fact that they did a cliffhanger in their books before AOA that wouldn't be resolved for four months. You never did stuff like that before.

    What I remember most about this run was the day they hit the stands I made a B-line for the store. I walked in and what on any other day would be full of titles from Marvel was just the first 4 new issues. Not because they weren't being released that week, but if you read the new stories it would have been because they never existed in the first place to be released. I thought that was a fantastic touch.

    I wish AoA had lasted longer, like 6 months, and had involved the entire Marvel Universe. We did get that 2-book mini series that showed what the rest of the Marvel Universe looked like, but I would have preferred all the Marvel books being transformed during that time.
