What's you favourite run on X-Men? Morrison? Claremont? Gillen? Aaron?
>>83512039
Morrison hands down
>>83512039
Claremont for classic, Gillen for modern
>>83512039
Claremont
>>83512039
Gillen, Fraction andWhedon, because muh first X-comic.
Who in their right mind would pick Aaron?
>>83512039
Morrison>Claremont>Whedon = Gillen>>>Everything else.
Claremont.
If I was writing I would take some things from Morrison, Gillen, Aaron and Claremont.

The first ten years or so of Claremont, Uncanny X-Men #94–#201. The writing becomes spottier after that because of the increased involvement of editorial and the need to accommodate the marketing mandate that the X-Men titles have a yearly crossover event.

This.
Claremont and Whedon.
Reading claremont right now actually, issue 105, we almost dark phoenix saga.
I like the bantz between wolverine and colossus

Morrison. Claremont had higher highs but also some horrible lows. It's pretty forgotten but I also enjoyed Mike Carey's run on the book.
And then at the bottom of the barrel, actually underneath the barrel and buried several miles below the surface, would be Austen.

You mean THE X-MEN?
In that case mostly Claremont and Gillen's Uncanny.
I have a lot of respect for Morrison's work, but it's not my personal favourite.
If we're talking X-books in general, Peter David's X-Factor is probably my favourite. Zeb Wells had a cool run on New Mutants and Kyle/Yost did a great job of [s]ruining[/s] improving DeFillips/Weir's New X-Men.

Seconding PAD's X-Factor. One of the best gut-punch endings to a comic book I've ever read.

Why doesn't Marvel produce more X-Factor by Peter David Ultimate Collections? I know sales, but c'mon, Marvel. You start something, you better finish it!
If you print it in ultimate collection, they will come.

Claremont is the One True God of the X-Men and anyone claming otherwise is objectively wrong.
