Hi everyone. I just wanted to ask if anyone is interested in reading X-Men ? The team's concept has always interested me from time to time as a group of mutants feared by the homo sapiens for the sake of being mutants, thus generating a lot of hatred towards them.

Great stuff for alienation and discrimination and bigotry themes of stories. For anyone interested?

Thanks for the interest Scott. What issues are in your collection. It doesn't have to be the exact number. It can be an approximation. And what titles of the X-Men franchise? Thanks.

Christopher (Donut) | 8 comments I was a big fan of the Claremont Byrne X-Men, and went back to the Lee Kirby roots, then I tuned out, so there is a lot to catch up on.

I have read Grant Morrison X-Men, some Bendis X-Men, and some Remender Uncanny X Force.

Recently got X-Men Epic Collection Vol. 17: Dissolution & Rebirth, and I am also reading X-Men: Second Coming, (oh, yeah- House of X.)

So, yes, I would be up for a buddy read or group read.

Thanks for your interest as well Christopher. I'mm all for this as well.

Do you prefer to Buddy Read X-Men's Grant Morrison from the beginning or Buddy Read X-Men's Chris Claremont from the beginning?

Because we can create a topic for each one of these X-Men series/run, or any other, here in the Buddy Reads forum.

We can start this weekend or perhaps the beginning of next week.

Scott, do you want to join me and Dave on reading either of the Morrison run or original Claremont run on the Buddy Reads X-Men?

Those who are interested, once the topic thread of Claremont's X-Men or Morrison's X-Men are created here in the Buddy Reads forum, please feel free to just join in. Thanks.
