    Stan Lee created the X-Men, but Claremont and Byrne defined the X-men forever. Those two made it their own, especially Claremont. Hickman is doing a wonderful job, but nothing can touch Claremont's legacy on the X-men.

    Please, dear Marvel, keep posting this kind of content, I love to see how things were back in the day. The interaction between the readers and the writters, with all the opinions from the readers at the end of the comic books were something that helped building most of the main stories in the comics.
    X-Men is my favorite group of super heroes ever, I love them so much, and I'm glad to see these videos showing a little bit more of the background from back in the day.

    I grew up in the 70’s reading comics and the Uncanny X-Men was mine and my friends favorite. When the New X-Men came out long time readers would send in letters saying they hated the New X-Men ESPECIALLY Wolverine. They were dismissive of issue #96 ( Night of the Demon) in this video but the speech Wolverine gives after he “kills” the demon absolutely defined his character and made him my favorite

    I haven't been excited over anything Marvel comics in years. Bringing Hickman back, and for the X-Men is about as exciting as it gets. To be honest, most Marvel comics suck now. But this news kindles a renewed sense of faith that Marvel is putting the comics side of their business on the right track.

    I can’t believe that they didn’t talk about the change in Wolverine’s mask from his first appearance in Hulk 180/181. Apparently they drew his mask in Giant Size #1 like it first appeared in Hulk 180/181. But when Gil Kane drew the cover, he drew Wolverine’s mask like Batman’s with the pointed ears. They then had to go back and change the mask before the issue was printed. Wolverine’s new look was an accident

    I read X-Men #94 and #95 were originally meant to be Giant-Size X-Men #2. Marvel then decided to discontinue the Giant-Size books with original material and made them reprints then discontinued them altogether. Giant-Size #1 did well enough in sales to stop the reprint run occurring in X-men and start original material again in #94.

    The X-Books have been falling from grace since quite a while, now. They used to be the best-selling books of the company, but then someone decided they didn't want to promote a franchise with movie rights in someone else's hands... Bad move, now they're back and are a bit forgotten.

    It's funny, in a way X-Men in the 21st century has become what it once was in the 1960s-early 70s, just a second banana unimportant title. sad but in a way fitting that it's come full circle. 1975-1999 will always be the glory days.

My neighborhood friend, Dave Cockrum would be the last to sign the book in 1993. He even drew me a Night Crawler in marker as a gift! And this book will always keep going up in price. Too many KEY characters to hold it back.

    To think, this was made in the middle of the Cold War and a well know time of racism at large, marvel made a team consisting of people from different parts of the world. Even though the team started rock but slowly they depend of one another and became friends and even a family. Among the team include a Canadian, a German, a Russian, an African and even a Japanese. And it didn’t matter where they’re from, they work together well and had fun times together as friends. That’s why I love X-men from this point to now.

    There's 2 of these selling on Ebay. The starting bid started at $30, since no one was selling these particular comic book 4 days ago. 2 days left on the bidding day, and both are bidding well over $100 with alot of harassment comments. So what is a reprint? To me, a reprint would consist of front and back being identical to it's original except for color scheme. Clearly 50 cent to a $3.99 price cover would not be considered a reprint. And there is a problem of 1st appearance. Please comment back
