Related To My X-Men Posts...

Shortly after finishing the three X-Men posts, I found this article in one of the CBR blogs in which a veteran X-Men reader gives long and detailed explanations about the X-Men continuity in response to questions from younger people reading the books after seeing the movies.

A lot of it centers around the same stuff I talked about - what Claremont was doing with the book, how it changed when John Byrne joined, how creativity faltered considerably in the 90's, and how both Morrison and Whedon have revitalized it of late. There were also several explanations of the origins behind ideas used in the movies.

Worth checking out.
