Your crazy idea to freshen up the x-books?

[useridgoeshere]

A mutant series based on a support group style collection of regular everyday mutants (e.g., school teachers, construction workers, bank tellers, etc.). Not all mutants need to be superheroes. It could still have drama, intrigue, fights, in a smart, surprising and entertaining way.

Scott's revolution re-visited. And put that unfortunate mutant that Dazzler beat up, the one who was just looking for a safe place, in the cast.

More mutant world building while exploring the impact that normalized mutantcy might be something the newer generations experience and the systemic and cultural realities that come with living in a world that hates and fears them but exoticism and at best tolerates them.

Explore multiversal Xmutants that keep touch with the Xavier Institute and let the series lovingly show how the Institute, the School and the Xmen are maybe lost in various worlds sometimes but the series makes space and panel time for their adventures and is devoted to the resolution of so many arcs two make room for new ones.

Make the School The Round Table again.

Get Alex Ross on that book and we'll call it a deal.

Create an X-men squad composed entirely out of ethnic minorities and let it be the flagship title. Storm, Monet, Sunfire, Bishop, Dani, Trinary, and Rictor

I feel like the X-men always show up at the mid point of a mutant story, usually when that mutant is being arrested, facing down a Sentinel, or being beaten by a mob.
All of which are great, but tend to be a bit one note. There's so much drama to be explored in the daily lives of mutants.

Does Monet even still count at this point?

she always will

[CRaymond]

1. LOTS of weird infinity warps.

2. Revive X-Corp squads in several global offices.

3. Make the United States government incredibly anti-mutant, and Latveria offer asylum.

That "move all the mutants to a new world" thing would have been really interesting with the mutants as illegal immigration analogues.

No More Sliding Timescale.

Characters age, grow old, retire, move on. If death isn't permanent, then there needs to be EXTREMELY extenuating circumstances to undo it.

As long as the X-Men are part of the main universe, this will never happen. Marvel will literally never let Peter Parker get too old. That's why they erased his marriage and when you have to keep him somewhat perpetually, everyone else has to stay around the same age.

Make MCU X-Men movies, so that they put the X-Men comics on the high priority list because of synergy.

Lol jk.

Every time a Batman movie is made, a new generation is netted. Every time a Woman Woman movie comes out, a new generation is netted. Every time a new Spider-Man, or X-Men, or Avengers cartoon is made, a new generation is netted. This has been the standard operating model since the 40's/60's. There will always be niche characters that catch on(and disappear) over time, like the Spawns, Venoms, various Image comics, for example, but the big two have been on a roll for 80-60 years. Nostalgia is a communicable disease. It doesn't get completely set in amber like you seem to suggest, and just die off at some point. It morphs slowly with each generation, each iteration, but it persists.

That said, I am all for using the tried and true characters(and newer/new ones) in a manner better than just lumping them all together in over-bloated, under-cooked decompressed splash pages regurgitating the same sound bytes ad infinitum. At this point, though, I've pretty much lost hope for the comics, at least until the first MCU X-Men film comes out. It was Fox's X1 that lead to the Morrison era, which was the last real creative push for the line of merit, so it's logical the new movies, in-house at Disney, will give us at least a shot at something good.

have I told you how much I love you!!! well said.

Make everyone black

I was hoping for all straight white and male.
