>tfw you attempt to read the source materialwhen does this ish get good? I respect that comics are a bit weirder than the adaptions that have the benefit of choosing the best from established mythology but I'm losing patience>sci fi goop monster>lizard demon>flamboyant galactic imperial spy>evil clones>evil flamboyant irishman>galactus herald>carnival mind control>flying stagecoach magneto featuring rosie the robot>dinosaur land>earthquake dynamite in japan>canadian justice league>carnival villain IIwhen does the silver age camp end and the war for the future of mutant kind begin?
>>150756862Never.
>>150756862I don't even like the Claremont shit.
Old X-men comics are one of those things of you had to be there for. Shits unreadable now unless you have an autistic fixation with the X-men
>>150756862>when does the silver age camp end and the war for the future of mutant kind begin?issue #1, x-men saving the space launch from magneto. isn't long after that you get the giant robots & scientists experimenting. way back neal adams already had secret societies running these programs. engleheart built off that for a few years before claremont. even dinosaur land was a callback to golden age submariner & a place where these experiments were taking place.>>150757329>Shits unreadable now unless you have an autistic fixation with the X-menalso this. i'm trying to say its easy and bringing up stuff from shanna the she devil or some spiderman/marvel tales/kazar/morbius crossover from 1972.
>>150756862I think an important thing for every X-men fan to learn is that the X-men are mostly wacky sci-fi adventures. I was also disappointed by this when I started reading them but I eventually fell in love with it.
>>150757329>Shits unreadable now unless you have an autistic fixation with the X-menthis is as true of X-Men comics from last month as it is from the 1970s>>150756862>when does the silver age camp end and the war for the future of mutant kind begin?if you're in X-Men comics for the race war shit, maybe examine your life choices that led you to that
>>150757497>wacky sci-fi adventuresTired of those. They never play out well, just bore you and waste your time.

>>150756862>when does this ish get good?If you didn't like any of that you should probably just give up, it's never going to get any better.>the war for the future of mutant kindAny X-Men comic treating "mutant kind" as a serious thing and taking Magneto's master race larp seriously is not a good comic and not something anyone should be reading.
>>150758219>Any X-Men comic treating "mutant kind" as a serious thing and taking Magneto's master race larp seriously is not a good comic and not something anyone should be reading.Millar's Ultimate X-men had the best take unironically. They were neither errors or the evolution there, just a different kind of humans.
