◢ Want to get into X-Men comics right now?
Here is my personal suggested order on how to do it!
1 Astonishing X-Men #1-24 (Plus the Giant-Size issue which goes last) this is Joss Whedon’s run, it’s a good launching point I’ve found to get people used to X-Men comics more since it’s a small team but with a lot of well known characters and an interesting storyline
2 House Of M (this can get kind of confusing but is super important and very good)
3 Second Coming (This is a less complicated than House Of M but you might still need to google a few things.
This is where you can start reading Uncanny X-Force but as it RARELY interacts with the rest of the comics you can kind of read it whenever you want. I’m including it because I think it’s one of the best x-titles right now and it’s darker.
4 Uncanny X-Men #521-544 (this has I think 3 overlapping issues with Second Coming because tie ins)
5 Astonishing X-Men #25-43
6 Schism (mini series only 5 issues long) (ALSO there are two tie-ins: Generation Hope #10 and #11)
7 Regenesis (one shot)
(From here on you’re in current X-Men time and can read these until AvX in any order)
8 Uncanny X-Men (new run) STOP AFTER #10
9 Wolverine And The X-Men STOP AFTER #8
10 X-Men Legacy #259 -265
11 AvX #0 and #1
from here on out read the rest of AvX, Legacy, Uncanny, and WATXM in whatever order you choose, they’re all AvX and AvX tie ins. Also the AvX: VS series tells you what regualr AvX issue it is a companion to.
Astonishing X-Men #44-to current
Hope it was helpful! This catches you up to everything in current X-Men main titles.
