While students at the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Angel, Beast and Iceman taught the world what it meant to be X-Men. These are the hidden stories of the team that laid the foundation of a mutant dynasty!
BONUS REVIEW by DAL BUSH
X-Men: First Class #1
When the Ultimate line was announced, most people weren't expecting anything good, since Marvel had a track record for releasing really awful "Early Years" style books. And despite the rousing success of the Ultimate line, Marvel still managed to squeeze out a really mediocre "Early Years of the X-Men" mini-series, X-Men: First Class. Nice art, boring story you've read a few thousand times. Skip this 8 issue run and pick up Ultimate X-Men Volume 1 instead. 4 Grahams
