X-Men

Hey, i was wondering if anyone knew a good site to tell me what I've missed from the X-Men comics. I haven't read since my fave character, Skin, was killed for no reason what so ever. I was pissed when that happened. Very. Knowing that Angel's blood cured EVERYONE except my favorite person to read about made me mad...

So yeah... I missed a lot. I heard a lot of them weren't muties anymore, as well.

I recommend Uncanny X-Men.net or Wikipedia, which is also really good in comic-things.

I've done all my catching up on Wiki. Definately go there, it will give your more info than you could possibly want.

There's also Marvel Directory which has a lot of info on X-Men characters. It's know as "The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe" which is good so you'll know what you're in for. Just scroll you mouse over individuals and it'll have the letters for several characters names. Say you wanna get info on Cyclops; just scroll your mouse over it and click A-C. Everything is in alphabetical order so you shouldn't have a problem looking for what you need. From there, Cyclops' name should be in blue and just click that.

It's not. Don't say stuff that isn't true. Besides, at the moment, marveldirectory is quite useless because there's a new series out called "The All New official handbook to the Marvel Universe A to Z" (see, there's your official handbook) which rewrites a lot of origins. Plus: It's completely useless when you're trying to catch up on stories.

I don't really use Marvel Directory, but I figured I'd suggest it anyways. I dunno what this "All New official handbook to the Marvel Universe A to Z" deal is cuz I've never head of it. I won't say things that aren't true if you don't want me to. I just read the description on the website wrong and that's how I typed it.

"The all new official Handbook to the Marvel Universe A to Z" is just that, the handbook to Marvel characters. And yes, it is official, because it's got Marvel's name on it and all that.

In the description, it says that it covers big events, but I haven't seen that so far. Also, it doesn't only cover mutants, but also just about every other character you can think of in the 616 universe. It's really worth a read. It's at issue #4 at the moment.

And no, C14, nobody wants you to say stuff that isn't true. Just don't do it.
