90s X-Men

Mutant Genesis — The X-Men Relaunch (1991)

Jim Lee's blockbuster relaunch. X-Men #1 sold 8.1 million copies — still the best-selling single issue ever. Magneto and his Acolytes attack a space station. The X-Men split into Blue and Gold squads. The art is gorgeous and the writing is bombastic. This is peak early-90s spectacle and it works.
