It was just something in X-Men companion that fell wayside infact I think the entire cast led the team at one point bar Colossus

You think they knew how strong these seven would be when they made this cover?

That's still one of my all time favorite covers

1. The Outback team - This is a great blend of characters, most of which are still popular today. I'm sad we haven't had a reunion yet.

2. Carey's Team - The mix of big names, villains, and out of the box new members was super fun.

3. Kyle/Yost's X-Force - This team could have been really redundant and boring, but he new issue brought in newer, better characters with great chemistry.

Blue is my favorite of all time.

More recently, Soule's Astonishing X-Men had just about all of my favorites. I just wish we got to see more of them interacting with one another.

Well, that was Len Wein's plan, originally. You can see it in the cover to Giant Size, Piotr is positioned centrally.

But once Wein got promoted and let go of the book to Claremont, all of that went out of the window. It would be interesting to see a run by Wein, utilizing the characters as he had intended.

Honorable Mention(s): New Mutants, Generation X, Supernovas Team, 90s Blue

**jpmst17** · 08-09-2018, 04:43 AM

probably 90's blue team. it's the team that got me into comics, so it always has a special place with me

God, how long did Gold last before X-editorial realized they put all the cool kids on Blue?

They had to invent Bishop, and then gave him the most chemistry with a a guy ON the Blue team. What a mess.

If memory serves, Blue was the team that Jim Lee wanted, and what he wanted, he got. The funny thing is that Gold is, by far, a more powerful roster.
