X-Men (1991) (Comic Book) | comment |
X-Men is a 1991 comic book series from Marvel Comics, launched as a new flagship title for the wider X-Men line.At the beginning of the series, the X-Men's massive ensemble cast was split evenly between two central X-Men titles, with each one focused on a different field team. The new X-Men series featured the "Blue Team" of Cyclops, Wolverine, Rogue, Gambit, Beast, Psylocke and Jubilee (while Uncanny X-Men featured the "Gold Team").The series had Jim Lee as artist and co-plotter; the first three issues were scripted by long-term X-Men writer Chris Claremont, who had been writing Uncanny X-Men since 1975. After Claremont's departure the series was scripted by John Byrne and then Scott Lobdell – then, when Jim Lee left Marvel in 1992 to co-found Image Comics, Fabian Nicieza took over as the new writer. This entire era was notorious for frequent crossovers, not only with other X-Men books but with other series as well, which has made it very difficult to collect in trade.Soon after the Age of Apocalypse event in 1995, Nicieza left the series and Lobdell (writer of Uncanny) took over the adjectiveless title as well, integrating the two core X-books much closer together. Lobdell was followed by Joe Kelly in 1997, and Alan Davis with Terry Kavanagh in 1999. The line-wide relaunch X-Men: Revolution in 2000 saw Claremont's brief return as writer from issue #100. In 2001, the series was retitled New X-Men from issue #114 for Grant Morrison's cerebral sci-fi run; for tropes relating to that era, see its own page. The 2004 relaunch X-Men: ReLoad saw the series' name revert back to X-Men from issue #157 under new writer Chuck Austen, who carried over the stories and characters he had previously been writing about in Uncanny X-Men. Austen was soon followed as writer by Peter Milligan, and then by Mike Carey.Following the 2008 crossover event Messiah Complex, X-Men vol. 2 was permanently retitled to X-Men Legacy from issue #208. The series initially focused on continuity-heavy stories featuring Professor Xavier, before shifting focus to Rogue from issue #226 onwards. Carey left the series after issue #260 and was replaced by Christos Gage; the series ended with issue #275. | |

Brainwashed and Crazy: For Claremont's swan-song on his first seventeen year run on X-Men, he brought this trope along one last time, with half the team getting brainwashed into following Magneto. | |

Brainwashing for the Greater Good: In the opening arc, Moira reveals she tried doing this to Magneto when he was all baby-fied. Erik is utterly outraged at this violation, but it turns out the brainwashing never took, since a flaw meant it wore off the minute he used his powers. All the good stuff he did? All him. | |

Et Tu, Brute?: In issue #1, Magneto is nearly killed by Wolverine. He's a little surprised, since while he expected that kind of attitude from Cyclops, he and Logan had been if not friends then at least comrades-in-arms recently. | |

Breaking the Fellowship: The pre-Messiah Complex team, thanks to Mystique and Lady Mastermind's betrayal. As Cyclops bluntly points out to Bobby, there is no point pretending that the team even exists when of their members two have turned traitor, one is possessed by Malice (Karima), another is captive (Rogue), and Cannonball is hospitalized thanks to Sinister. | |
