Five Minutes of X

I’m reading every comic where an X-Person shows up — starting with The X-Men #1 from 1963 and continuing on forever, because Marvel apparently made a blood pact with someone in Limbo. Or maybe it was Madelyne Pryor. Hard to say. (Also, Gene Gray’s Clone is 100% a doom metal band that only plays concept albums about tragic resurrection arcs and emotional baggage.)

Each video takes five minutes or less to cover one issue. Was it a masterpiece? A mess? Did the mansion survive? Was Magneto right... again? And seriously — what is even happening with the Summers family?
Welcome to the X-Men... I hope you survive the experience.
