I wanna get back in the groove of X-Men. I really haven't messed with any full X-Men comics since I was about 15 (around 1999) cause I got more into otherdifferent titles that demanded money; which I didnt have alot of to spend week by week. And I guess all these years in and out of the comic shop I repressed itand only read about them when a full Marvel U storyline forced it on me (House of M, Civil War, Secret Invasion...).
Sooo...this past week, I scooped up X-Men Forever Alpha (Chris Claremont & Jim Lee's #1-3 reprint) and I gotta say reading that again made me go thegarage and dust off some of the old X comics and trading cards and the toys and made me miss it.
But now...I don't know what the hell is going on..Theres like 4 different X-Men comics. Or are there more??
Can someone help me make sense of it again? I can't remember much about the blue and gold teams...they had to have changed by now...right?
So now its..what:
X-Men Legacy
Uncanny X-Men
Astonishing X-Men
X-Men: First Class (I think I know whats going on with this one...Ithink...Wolverine is what?, babysitting the teen mutants basically?
)
X-Men Forever (This one I get..its that same continuing story where Magneto died. Not Part of the 616...right?
)
I'd wikipedia it but my head would probably explode after 15 mins tryna figure this out...
Whats the difference between the highlighted ones above? And what the hell is the Messiah Complex? Sounds complicated. Help me out here please...
