I would've voted for Hawkeye; while I have been liking Fallen Angels, every time I hear about Hickman's latest installment, I more and more do not want to read it. Glad that it's doing it for those who want it, though.

It's really not that great tho.
I think what I like best about Hickman's era of X-Men is that whether you like it or not, it changes the status quo and you still want to know what's going to happen next. Of course it's not perfect and there are still flaws, but he was able to take old concepts and turn them into something new. Again, whether you like it or not, he was able to unite not only mutants, but also the creative team and X-Office in a way to bring about cohesive storytelling. Something I'd say the X-Men has been missing for a while.
There are parts that may be clunky right now, but I feel like after the first year is over, they'll be able to see what's working and what's not working so they could really fine tune it. You don't have to like it and that's okay. "Best comic" can only lead to a subjective opinion. But I'm personally still glad they were able to get its foot in for this decade so it could could go full force into 2020 and the new decade.
Oh, wow. I didn't even realize. Haha. I'm gonna be doing that all day now.

I just went to get the graphic novel and it was sold out at my LCS. Literally the first time this has ever happened to me. haha
I was trying to do too much and not doing any of it as well as I could. But I've had a change of mind... though not everyone shall enjoy it. I will.

Lol. Such BS. Agree on Ms. Marvel though.

Suprised and pleased to see these books were not a cheap gimmick like Red, Blue and Gold.
I loved House of X/Powers of X. I think it's one of the best X-Men comics of the decade, if not the best.
But best comic of the decade overall? I think that's a bit of a stretch, especially when compared to comics like Saga.

HOX/POX would rank very high in my list of Best Superhero Comics of this Decade (which yeah I will get to) but in terms of overall comics probably not:
My best of this decade is:
SAGA
The Wicked + The Divine
Democracy
Providence
Three
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Volume 3 and 4
Sex Criminals
Bitch Planet
The Black Monday Murders
Nemo: Heart of Ice
In terms of Superhero comics (in no order):
Hawkeye by Fraction/David Aja
Mister Miracle by Tom King and Mitch Gerards
The Superior Foes of Spider-Man by Nick Spencer and Steve Leiber.
House of X and Powers of Ten by Hickman/Larraz/Silva
Spider-Man Life Story by Zdarsky/Bagley
Thor, God of Thunder by Jason Aaron, Esad Ribic.
Batman Incorporated by Grant Morrison, and Frank Quitely.
Secret Wars (2015) by Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribic
Infamous Iron Man by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev
Injustice Gods Among Men by Tom Taylor.
I think best BIG comic of the last year but for me the best comic of the last decade that i can think about. Prepare to be stunned. The recent Black Bolt Series followed by Immortal Hulk, and HOX/POX.

Red was a cheap gimmick?
Guess we all come to this stuff differently. I'm only a fan of specific X-Men characters, so the big stuff about the franchise in general tends to be out of my range of interest; the characters I like often get out of focus in them.
Doctor Strange: "You are the right person to replace Logan."
X-23: "I know there are people who disapprove... Guys on the Internet mainly."

As someone who had been reading Marvel pretty religiously since approx. 2010, I have not given one iota of a damn about the X-men as a concept until Hickman. I liked characters related to the franchise, but as a whole the X-Men came across overly dramatic and without substance, relying on inconsistent characterizations and quickly abandoned plot lines to limp along from relaunch to relaunch. Hickman gave the franchise what it needed to get off the ground; he gave them a reason to go forward instead of wallowing in relationships and traumas of the past. Leave the drawn out interpersonal drama to teams like the Avengers, who are built on relationships;X-Men is a now a story about a society, its culture, and its trails.
Suggested Reading: Lazarus, Black Science, Memetic, Wytches, Drifter, Captain America, Uncanny Avengers, Black Widow, Punisher, Deathlok, Storm, Thor, and X-Force.
