The Factor Three story arc wraps up, and the X-kids get new unis.
Cyclops' origin continues.
Again, it is so cool read how Roy Thomas established so much of the X-Men's early mythology.
I always...

Part 2 of the continuing Factor 3 story line.
The X-kids are more confident and skilled.
It was also nice to see Werner Roth's art back for the "Man Called X" short.

NOTE: Reading through this...

You are correct!
I meant to say that Thomas is no longer writing a full story and including origin stories, which could have been done earlier.
:)

The x-kids are in Europe and WWIII is eminent.
Cliff-hanger ending.
Still not liking the sketchy art.
NOTE: The end of the original run is near as Origins of the X-Men debuts with ish 38 and a...

Thanks for that info!
Makes sense now.

His parents were on yet another cruise.
LOL

This issue sucked.
The X-Men are trying to get to Europe but have no money, so they apply for welfare assistance.
Jean, Scott, and Warren then try to get hired at a construction site, while Hank...

Sipdey guest-stars!
There is the usual misunderstanding, fight, and reconcile cycle.
Roth's Spidey is somewhat Kirbyesque.

I actually enjoyed this issue with its primary emphasis on Jean, Warren, and Bobby and Scott and Hank playing a supporting role.
I especially enjoyed the fill-in art by Dan Adkins.
He added a...

There is a ton of good stuff in the original run.
I am enjoying it very much.
The occasional politically incorrect dialogue is an interesting reflection of the time period.

I agree, brother!

Midway point!
33 issues to go!
I enjoyed the Jean/Scott mission AND the guest-appearance of Doc Strange.
I am starting to see why it might have lagged behind other Marvel offerings in sales....

Cool Badfinger reference.
Mr. Thomas is one hep cat.
Juggy clobbers the X-Men. . .again!

Cool Dylan and Monkees song lyrics.
The intro of Candy Southern and Warren conceding Jean to Scott.
Juggy is back, baby!

I hear ya.

*yawn*
Moving on. . .

Calvin Rankin has become a man.
On to X-Men #30 with fill-in artist, Jack Sparling!
Um, yay?

Here's a What If? idea?
What if the X-Men had become the Super-Adaptoid's other Adaptiods?
I'd buy that for a dollar.
LOL

Don't forget, "camel jockeys."
On the other other hand, forget it, given your anger with the original text.
LOL
Yes, thank goodness Claremont took over the writing.

At times, it has been torture; nevertheless, I shall prevail!
LOL

The Banshee!
'Nuff said!

You are spot on, friend.
I am chomping at the bit to get to that short but significant Thomas/Adams run.
I will say that early Roy Thomas has had some good moments.

Hahahaha, sorry!

X-Men #26: Thank God that's over!
It took me days to read it.
I might be wrong, but I found the El Tigre story line very boring.
On to X-Men 27!

X-Men #26.
Hooboy, is Hank at his pretentious peak?
He claims to know Mayathan, a form of ancient Mayan language.
Hahahaha!
Gotta love the Marvel Age of Comics!
