Which is your favourite era of X-Men / other mutant titles?

[PANDEMONIUM]

Current.

The way I NEVERRRRRRR want to see that tired, gaudy mansion and it’s mildew-stained walls again. I just know the carpet STANKS like Xavier’s old colostomy bag and the bathrooms like leather and ballsweat.

Keep it away!

Claremont’s era, of course…

They were adventures around the world and beyond, the X-men were good people fighting bad people, whatever their DNA. And it was high on emotion.

The whole mansion got blown up every few months for them, given the sliding timeline, it was practically new at all times.

And the stench followed each time.

post-Dark Phoenix Claremont until he was removed from the book. Plus adjacent X-titles during that time period.

[EmeraldGladiator]

Silvestri through the Jim Lee era, Outback X-men, Inferno, to the Image relaunch, Portachio on Uncanny, Silvestri on Wolvie, Liefeld on X-Force, Lee on X-Men and the relaunched X-Factor helmed by Peter David. This is when the X franchise had the most books that I was very interested in at the same time.

It's definitely the whole Claremont era for me. You can see the whole thing fall off a cliff for the rest of at least the 90s from the instant his name is gone off the cover. You can't recreate accidental alchemy by throwing as many titles, writers and artists at the problem as possible.

Dividing the Claremont era into several "eras", otherwise I'd say UXM 94-280. If I took 94-138 (epilogue to DPS,) 139-210 (through the post DPS to the prologue to the first major crossover, Mutant Massacre) and the Claremont crossover era of 211-280 I'd go with the "era" of 211-280, even if the other eras had more iconic stories.

The Claremont n friends era.

No arguments here. Claremont got better and better at his craft as the years went by.

As Deadpool so eloquently put it, like “the Neverland Mansion with some creepy, old, bald, Heaven's Gate-looking motherf***er!”

Mutant Massacre to going through Siege Perilous was peak X-Men.

I somehow missed this on my first look at this thread. Yeah, this is a damn good observation. A lot of great stuff was in that time period. It felt like an X-Men western at times and I loved that.
