You'll be coming up on where the Kitty Pryde and Wolverine limited series fits,if you've haven't already. Not sure that there is anything else off the top of my head.

I enjoy how desperate comic book logic Jean Greys resurrection is. And how Cyclops abandons his wife and newborn baby for her.
Magneto's trial was good though does he basically get let off by having a fight and running off?

Ralph, are you F***ing s#!+ing me here? he gets infected with a variant of the transmode virus and sent to the future where he gets cloned. The clone becomes Stryfe and he becomes Cable See Inferno, X-Factor 65-68 and The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix |

Wow. That's mad.
Remember: I'm not a hardcore X-Men reader. I tend to dip in and out depending on who the writer is and rarely venture into the spin-off books. I can go years between reading X-Men. Currently reading Panini X-Men purely because I think the Bendis stories are fun.

Albeit with somewhat squarer faces.
It's interesting watching his art evolve from Amazing Spider Man through X-Men and Daredevil, which is where it started getting odder, to where it is now.

I think my favourite run of "modern"-style JRJR (and omg it was 25 years ago) was Armor Wars II, as inked by Bob Wiacek. I think most inkers include too many lines and details for him, Wiacek left everything broad and expressive.

What did you think this time around? Andy I understood the plot! For some reason my main memories of it was the jungle fight with demons in fake Vietnam, which actually just takes up the first few pages. |

If the X-Men want to pretend to be dead when moved to Australia, why are they wearing their old costumes and codenames and calling themselves the X-Men?  Oh wow, I just read that the Adversary was supposed to be Mad Jim Jaspers but Alan Moore complained. I guess that explains what he was doing at Magneto's trial!! |

Yup, The Fury would have been involved.
Also if Claremont had gotten his way Silvestri would not have been on X-Men it would have been Alan Davis but he kept knocking it back.
