Xmen history: the Early Years
History of the Xmen: the 70'es
In Giant-Size Xmen #1 (1975), writer Len Wein and artist Dave Cockrum introduced a new team which was featured in new issues of The Xmen beginning with issue #94. Rather than teenagers, this group consisted of adults who hailed from a variety of nations and cultures. The "all-new, all-different Xmen" were led by Cyclops from the original team and consisted of the newly created Colossus, Nightcrawler, Storm, and Thunderbird, along with three previously introduced characters, Banshee, Sunfire, and most notably, Wolverine, who became the most popular Xmen character. A revamped Jean Grey soon rejoined the Xmen as the popular Phoenix; Angel, Beast, Havok, and Polaris also made significant guest appearances.
The revived series was illustrated by Dave Cockrum, and later John Byrne, and written by Chris Claremont. Claremont became the series' longest-running contributor. The run met great critical acclaim and produced the "Proteus Saga", "Dark Phoenix Saga", and later the early 1980s "Days of Future Past", arguably some of the greatest story arcs in Marvel Comics, as well as Xmen: God Loves, Man Kills, the basis for the 2003 movie X2. Other characters introduced at time include Kitty Pryde, the Hellfire Club, Multiple Man, Mystique, and Moira MacTaggert along with her genetic research facility on Muir Island.
