Cool, that helps
Is there a decent timeline somewhere? So that I can read from the beginning (start dark phoenix) and pick out the best ones from there and go in chronological order. Also I find the many different spinoffs confusing and dont really know where they begin etc. Also, some stuff was brought out recently that is a follow on to old stuff? Does Marvel do prequels/sequels way after other stories have happened or is it all one singular continuity?
Its not so much that I dont like the talking in the old ones, thats fine. Its more that I find them really cheesy and the dialogue doesnt really run very deep (if that makes sense), but then I havent read the supposedly really good ones (like Dark Phoenix).
This is all from the perspective of reading the batman comics where the stories are very deep and character driven and someone actually went and catalogued the in-world chronological order of events starting at year one (which isnt the same as publication order) so its quite easy to get into. Im enjoying them very much but I wish I could get into xmen as easily particularly because I really like the complex, sci fi storylines and I used to like the 90s cartoons when I was a kid.
