X-Men - Wikipedia The current X-epoch, 'Dawn of X,' is digging back into classic mutant mythos in a big way - and heading toward a totally new epic crossover in 'X of Swords' - but the classics hold a special place in our collective heart, so here are the top 20 best X-Men stories of all time. While it often seems like the X-Men during legendary writer Chris Claremont's run are big enough to sustain a universe of their own, the writer's dalliances with other corners of the Marvel Universe always provide fun distractions from the sometimes suffocating soap operatics of his main story. Loki's plan is to manipulate Storm into becoming the goddess of thunder. But the New Mutants are along for the ride, too. Arthur Adams' art is some of the best of his career, creating a clear inspiration for artists like Marc Silvestri and Jim Lee to gain popularity in the X-Men: The Story of the X-Men to come.
