Welcome to Favorite Comic Runs, Christopher Yost!

This week, we want all of you to reflect on the writer's time with Kaine and Wolverine's deadly team. With 2008's X-FORCE, Yost teamed-up with Craig Kyle to create a dark and engrossing path for the team's new roster. And with 2012's SCARLET SPIDER, Yost followed the events of Grim Huntand showed us Kaine's journey as an anti-hero. But which one of these Marvel runs do you prefer? Does the artwork help sway your opinion in one direction? Do you love them equally and cannot pick a favorite? Or perhaps you're not a fan of either? We want to hear from you!

I voted X-Force. Kyle and Yost's New X-Men was really good so I followed them over to X-Force. Never read Scarlet Spider unfortunately.

X-Force is the better title IMO, but that could be my Xmen bias lol

X-Force by far.

The Necrosha part with Selene isn't as great but the rest is fantastic.

Those were great times for X-Men fans.

Read Kyle and Yost's New X-Men, then X-Force volume 3 into Second Coming and you have an amazing X-Men run.

Yes I wrote amazing x-men as a reference to their new project.

I loved Scarlet Spider. I really grew to be a fan of Aracely, and the rest of friends Kaine made in Huston. He is the definition, like Ben Reilly was, of the road not traveled, the what if? I wish the series went on longer. Nova has his own series, is in New Warriors and makes appearances in Avengers and Original Sin? Well, that's just not fair

I tried to click to vote for Yost's Red Robin series but I didn't see the button for it. Seriously, Comic Vine, get on that.

X Force. Necrosha was very enjoyable to me. The Messiah Complex. I liked his run. The Scarlet Spider was good also but I liked the latter much better. Oh yeah, X-23.

Heh. Just messing with you, K4tzm4n! Out of the two I like Scarlet Spider decidedly more. This may due to the distinct lack of Tool-verine and my general adoration for Kaine.

I love both honestly. Christ Yost co-created one of my favorite characters, and I look forward to one day seeing him interact with X-23 again.

This run of X-Force is part of what got me back into comics (this and Immortal Iron Fist) a few years ago. As an X-Man fan this has some great moments, Warpath and Ghost Rider, X-23, Sex & Violence, and call backs to those classic mutant villains. I've only read about a half of the Spider run but I did enjoy that as well.

X-Force for me.

-_-

This line from Super Soldier XII is even funnier though!

Any more Spider love circulating on the Vine and Parker needs to start worrying about dropping the soap.
