@oldnightcrawler: I have essential uncanny xmen 1-11, I made a thread to help me know what series to get next but no one is voting on it. I have mixed emotions about them all, for example, classic xmen 1-3 would be good to get as its the beginning of the series as so then i would have xmen 60's-90's. However told early stuff is kinda boring.
Xfactor would be good as i want to see how jean returned and what happened with scotts baby. Also apocoplypse and archangel. However some of the comics are already in the xmen1-11 set i have so will have duplicates.
Then their is wolverine, i would be intrested to read how he lost his healing factor (which he is without in extinction agenda) also what happened with mariko, relationship wise and her death. Plus look into death strike when she goes cyborg, dont know if thats in the collection. However looking at prices this will be the most expensive collection and i am reading the older comics to get the history/background of the xmen and so not sure if a solo series will be to limited only focusing on one character.
Then their is dazzler... i like how i only have to pick up 2 books and i have complete series and will be good to see the interaction with rouge dazzler that takes place. Down side same as wolverine, not sure if solo series is quickest way to learn xmen history, also not too sure how good the series is.
Ok so thats my take on the essential collections.... any advice appreciated.
