X-Men is a cluster f***. You won't be able to read all of it, unless you have tons and tons of free time.

But starting with the Dark Phoenix Saga would be a good choice. It's one of the best X-Men stories.

Then after that you can get into more modern stuff, like Morrison's New X-Men. Really, you don't need to read everything, and you don't need to go in chronological order, there's just too much crap and it all varies in quality.

Well then yeah, start with Dark Phoenix Saga. It's an older story, but it's a classic and a good starting point before you get into more modern day stuff.

In the last 2 weeks I have read every major X-Men story past New X-Men not written by Chuck Dixon, including things like Academy X and New Mutants.

It's not THAT difficult.

Grant Morrison's New X-Men.

That's pretty much all I've read, besides the X-Force books. I'm not as big a fan of X-Men as Anri, or even LtM.

Actually I don't know why LtM can't help out, because he just recently read a s*** ton of X-Men stuff.

I also need to read Locke & Key and The Unwritten, other books I've heard good things about. And Fables but that seems like a huge undertaking.

But hey, I took a chance on Sweet Tooth and now Lemire is in my top 5 writers!

I haven't tried Locke & Key. I read the FCBD Comic but it didn't really grab me. I didn't care for the concept or art style, and I think people have been down on the last few stories. Unwritten is cool, though. I'm a few issues behind right now, I should get to it.

Criminal is probably my favourite book out there. Probably.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mutants#New_Mutants.2C_vol._3


That's some cool stuff that can mostly be enjoyed on its own if you don't care about getting deep into continuity.

There's also this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_X-Men

But I think I liked it more than most others would.

There's a ton more but most of it is thick with continuity and probably more difficult to get into.

Morrison's New X-Men (the first one I listed) is the most important of the bunch.

The GL list consists of ONE VOLUME that started in 2004.

You want a list consisting of dozens of books and dozens of volumes since the 80's.

Green Lantern is more organized than X-Men. GL has one book for Hal Jordan, then another for the rest of the Corps.

X-Men has one book for one team, another book for another team, this book, that book, the other other book, the book for Wolverine only, another book for Wolverine, another for the same X-Men team as the first, another for young X-Men, another for even younger recruits, a book for another generation, a book for newer mutants, a book for older mutants, a book for villains, a book for a special task force related to the X-Men, and a few more containing Wolverine.

I'm exaggerating a bit, but not much.

We are when it comes to things that are better than X-Men. There's a lot.

For instance, if you asked about Batman, I'd be able to give you a humungous list that would keep you busy for quite a while.
