    X-Men: Red > Immortal X-Men > Sabretooth [and the eXiles] > Marauders > New Mutants > not reading the others

    I like this order of preference layout. Mine currently:

    X-Men: Red > X-Men > Immortal X-Men > Sabretooth [and the eXiles] > Dark Web: X-Men > X-Treme X-Men > X-Terminators > not reading the others

    EDIT: I forgot X-Treme

    I'll go with Immortal, X-Men, X-Men Red, X-Force, Wolverine, the rest aren't that great for me. I stopped reading a bunch of them after I got tired of spending all my money on comics

    I'm not a fan at all of Marvel's business model anymore(the books have been greatly diminished by it) so I don't read a lot of X-titles anymore and thus I won't be able to rate many. But for the ones I do read.....

    Immortal X-men- I went back and forth on which was better between this and Red, but ultimately I give the edge to IMX. It's clearly the flagship of the line with the most narrative importance. The viewpoint gimmick has actually been interesting and effective more or less( a few stinkers and it has lost importance as the book has gone on, but by and large I think it worked). I know some are tired of Sinister but at least we're finally getting to the endpoint of his story so that has been exciting for me. The art has been gorgeous as well. This book also isn't as dense as Red, which I think is another of its strengths. This book has definitely surprised me at how entertaining it is, as I've never been a Gillen fan.

    Red-Another good book. Other x-writers should take note. This is how you do a TEAM book. You actually write for the entire team and don't have those stupid stealth solos that a lot of X-books have become. Here no one individual hogs the limelight and everyone feels like they are given focus and contribution to the narrative. Ewing excels at this and it's definitely a lost art at Marvel now so I give him tons of props for being able to execute this flawlessly with this title. The biggest problem with the book though is that it just has a LOT going on. Things just aren't as fleshed out as much as you would like because of all the plot threads and characters. It almost feels TOO ambitious for its own good. Also, as great as it is, it sometimes feels superfluous to the line since it's so far removed from the Krakoa goings on. Another title with incredible art though.

    X-men-Dead last. I though Duggan was HORRIBLE on Marauders but I still wanted to give him a chance. This just didn't hold my interest though. Too many characters I don't care about and too many stories that pale in comparison to what's going on in the other far superior flagships. I dropped this. At least it looked good.

    I'm not reading anything else so that's all the ratings I can give.

    X-men Red > Immortal X-men > Wolverine > Sabretooth > X-Terminators > X-men > X-Force > Marauders

    And that's all I'm reading.

    X-Men: Red = Immortal X-Men > Sabretooth & The Exiles > X-Men (including Dark Web: X-Men) > Legion of X > X-Terminators > Marauders > New Mutants > X-Force = Wolverine

    Red and Immortal have gone above each other at different points in time so I think it's right to have them equal. Same with X-Force and Wolverine on the other end of the spectrum, though I started Unlimited-waiting both after the last issues. New Mutants was much higher under Ayala but under CJA it didn't do it for me. Marauders has a few interesting ideas but the execution has been meh. X-Terminators is fun. Legion of X is good but a bit overstuffed and not quite there. X-Men is good but not great. Sabretooth is great.

    Overall I think everything down to X-Terminators is pretty good and worth reading, and the rest are meh.

    Haven't picked up Deadpool but the art looks great.

    The best way to rate them and find out which turn out to be the best and worst of 2022 is of course to let your voice be heard on our 2022 X-Books voting.

    If you did not vote on our forum yet for your favorites of 2022, please do so fast. Voting ends soon. Vote here.

    I have put a lot of time and effort this year again to make it, so why don't you take a moment to let us know what your favorites were?
