----
!!Here are the different incarnations of the X-Men so far:

* '''The Original Team:''' The founding team from 1963, which featured '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsCyclops Cyclops]]''', '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsAngel Angel]], [[Characters/MarvelComicsBeast Beast]], [[Characters/MarvelComicsIceman Iceman]]''', and '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsJeanGrey Marvel Girl]]''' as its central cast, and was led by '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsProfessorX Professor X]]'''. Later additions included '''[[AllYourPowersCombined Mimic]]''' (the first non-mutant, and only briefly), '''[[Characters/XMen60sMembers Polaris]]''', and Cyclops' long-lost brother '''[[Characters/XMen60sMembers Havok]]''' to the roster, as well as retconning '''[[VoluntaryShapeshifting Changeling]]''' into becoming a member to facilitate one of the first instances of DeathIsCheap.
* '''The All-New All-Different X-Men:''' Introduced in the pivotal ''Giant-Size X-Men'' #1, in which Professor X and Cyclops were forced to recruit a new, international, multi-racial team, made up of '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsStorm Storm]]''' from Kenya, '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsNightcrawler Nightcrawler]]''' from West Germany, '''[[Characters/XMen70sMembers Colossus]]''' from Russia, '''[[SuperScream Banshee]]''' from Ireland, '''[[PowerOfTheSun Sunfire]]''' from Japan, '''[[LightningBruiser Thunderbird]]''' from an Apache nation, and, [[BreakoutCharacter of course]], '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsLogan Wolverine]]''' from Canada, to save the old team from a failed mission on [[Characters/XMenKrakoans Krakoa]]. This team continued into the main ''X-Men'' title from issue #94 onwards; Sunfire left the team almost immediately, and Thunderbird was promptly [[SacrificialLion killed off]]. Marvel Girl soon rejoined the team, apparently died and resurrected with greatly expanded powers, and took on the new name Phoenix. Eventually Banshee had to leave the team due to injury, and the story of Jean's growing power tragically culminated in ''ComicBook/TheDarkPhoenixSaga''.
* '''From Dark Phoenix to the Brood Saga:''' Soon after the death of Jean Grey, teenager '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsKittyPryde Kitty Pryde]]''' joined the team and initially took the codename Sprite. Cyclops took an unspecified leave of absence to grieve, leaving Storm as the leader. Angel rejoined the team as well, but left after ten issues over a dispute about whether Wolverine was trustworthy. Soon afterwards Cyclops fell back into the X-Men's orbit and remained with the team until the end of the Brood Saga; during this period, a de-powered [[Characters/MarvelComicsCarolDanvers Carol Danvers]] was also a close associate of the X-Men (although not an official member).
* '''From the Brood Saga to the Mutant Massacre:''' Cyclops left the team again, seemingly for good this time, getting married and settling down for a normal life in Alaska. Kitty Pryde abandoned the codename Sprite, becoming Ariel and eventually Shadowcat. Former villain '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsRogue Rogue]]''' defected to the X-Men include:]]
!!Mini-series, limited series, and soon became an integral part of the team. '''[[Characters/XMen80sMembers Rachel Summers]]''', the [[KidFromTheFuture daughter from the alternate future]] of Cyclops and Jean from ''ComicBook/DaysOfFuturePast'', travelled back to the present day and claimed her mother's mantle as the second Phoenix. Storm temporarily left the team as well after being de-powered, leaving Nightcrawler as team leader, before returning to the team as a BadassNormal and reclaiming her position as leader. Professor X departed for outer space and left charge of the Xavier School to '''Characters/{{Ma|rvelComicsMagneto}}gneto''', who had gradually undergone a HeelFaceTurn.
* '''Post-Mutant-Massacre and the Australia era:''' The X-Men underwent a drastic shift in their line-up after the Mutant Massacre, with only Storm, Wolverine and Rogue remaining as members; new recruits included '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsPsylocke Psylocke]]''', '''Characters/{{Dazzler}}''', '''[[Characters/XMenMojoverse Longshot]]''' (who was an alien rather than a mutant) and the return of Havok. Storm took a leave of absence to go on a quest to recover her superpowers, leaving Wolverine as team leader for the first time – around the same time she returned, Colossus was also able to return as an active team member. During the period where the team were presumed dead and operating from exile in the Australian outback, they were aided by the mysterious elderly portal-creating mutant '''Gateway'''.
* '''Dissolution and Rebirth:''' During a period where the X-Men were dissolved and scattered across the world, Wolverine teamed up with newcomer '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsJubilee Jubilee]]''' and reunited with a now [[FreakyFridayFlip body-swapped]] Psylocke, the once-again-active Banshee teamed up with long-time recurring character '''[[GadgeteerGenius Forge]]''', and Storm became travelling companions with the newly introduced '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsGambit Gambit]]'''. These seven eventually came together as a new team of X-Men and reunited with Professor X, although this lineup was short-lived.
* '''Blue and Gold:''' At the time when a second ongoing ~~series:~~main ''X-Men'' title was launched to run alongside ''Uncanny X-Men'', the main characters were split into two teams: the "Blue" team from ''X-Men'' consisted of Cyclops, Beast, Wolverine, Psylocke, Jubilee, Rogue and Gambit, while the "Gold" team from ''ComicBook/UncannyXMen'' consisted of Storm, Jean Grey, Archangel (formerly Angel), Iceman, Colossus, Forge and new character '''Bishop'''. Forge left the X-Men and ended up joining ComicBook/XFactor; '''Revanche''', in Psylocke's original body, briefly joined the Blue Team and left shortly before her death; Colossus defected to Magneto's Acolytes due to the TraumaCongaLine he had been living through, while at the same time Wolverine also left the X-Men after having the adamantium ripped out of his body; finally, Jubilee left to become a founding member of the new class of young mutants in ''ComicBook/GenerationX''. By the end of this era, the Blue and Gold teams had more-or-less merged into one big team.
* '''Onslaught era:''' Following ''ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse'', former ''ComicBook/NewMutants'' and ''ComicBook/XForce'' team leader '''Cannonball''' was recruited to the main X-Men team. The events of ''Onslaught'' forced Professor X to depart; around the same time, the X-Men discovered '''Joseph''', whom they believed to be a de-aged amnesiac Magneto. Archangel and Psylocke left the team not long after, and Wolverine returned. During ''Operation Zero Tolerance'', the X-Men were joined by the Morlock girl '''Marrow''', South African boy '''Maggott''' and '''Dr Cecilia Reyes'''; meanwhile, Gambit was cast out of the X-Men in disgrace. Cyclops, Jean and Iceman all took indefinite leaves of absence. Joseph left the team after learning he was ''not'' Magneto. At the end of this era Cannonball left the X-Men and soon rejoined X-Force, Maggott departed to join Generation X,[[note]]although he stayed with them only briefly[[/note]] and Cecilia quit the superhero life to work as a doctor again.
* '''From the Hunt For Xavier to The Twelve:''' Beginning with Storm, Wolverine, Rogue and Marrow as the only active X-Men, they were reunited with many former teammates: Nightcrawler, Shadowcat and Colossus rejoined after the disbanding of Excalibur; Gambit was invited back soon after; and Professor X returned in the ''Hunt for Xavier'' storyline. The enormous crossover story ''The Twelve'' also brought back many other former teammates.
* '''X-Men: Revolution era:''' After a six-month TimeSkip the X-Men's team lineup has gone through another change, with each main book featuring a different set of characters: ''Uncanny X-Men'' focused on Storm, Jean, Beast, Rogue, Gambit and former ''New Mutants'' and ''X-Force'' mentor '''Cable''', while the adjectiveless title focused on Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Psylocke, Archangel, Colossus and the new '''Thunderbird'''. Towards the end of this era, Colossus died in a HeroicSacrifice.
* '''ComicBook/NewXMen:''' A relaunch in 2001 by writer Creator/GrantMorrison which revamped the X-Men for the modern era, giving them black and yellow outfits and introducing darker, more mature, and more complex storylines, like the Genoshan genocide and having Xavier's School become an actual school, with hundreds of mutant students. The book revitalized the franchise and was critically and commercially successful, but was also controversial for some of its takes on characters, like Magneto. This era introduced the character of '''X-23''', Wolverine's clone daughter, as well as the "special class" of Xavier's students, like '''Quentin Quire''', '''Glob Herman''', and the '''Stepford Cuckoos'''.
* '''Decimation, Hope, and Utopia:''' At the end of ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'', the Scarlet Witch depowered 99% of all mutants in an event dubbed the "Decimation" or "M-Day," causing a massive period of upheaval and death in the X-Men's world. This led to a period where the X-Men were less concerned with superheroics and more with preventing their own extinction. This eventually led to a trilogy of crossovers (''[[ComicBook/XMenMessiahComplex Messiah Complex]]'', ''[[ComicBook/XMenSecondComing Second Coming]]'', and ''Messiah War'') about '''Hope Summers''', the first mutant baby born after M-Day and so-called "mutant messiah." This era also saw the X-Men move to San Francisco and then their own island made of the remains of Asteroid M, Utopia.
* '''Schism, the Phoenix Five, and the Original Five:''' An era defined by the conflict between Cylops and Wolverine. The ''Schism'' event saw Wolverine split from Cyclops and take half of the X-Men back to Westchester in order to [[ComicBook/WolverineAndTheXMenMarvelComics run the Jean Grey School]], while Cyclops ran his own [[ComicBook/UncannyXMen2011 "Extinction Team."]] And then ''ComicBook/AvengersVsXMen'' saw Cyclops, Emma Frost, [[ComicBook/SubMariner Namor]], Colossus, and Magik each get a portion of the Phoenix Force and try to fix the world. In the aftermath of that event, Cyclops was declared a mutant terrorist and found himself on the run, while Beast brought [[ComicBook/AllNewXMen the Original Five X-Men to the present.]] This status quo eventually ended with ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015''.
* '''Inhumans and [=ResurrXion=]:''' Post-''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'', mutants were again on the brink of extinction due to the Inhuman's Terrigen cloud poisoning them with "M-Pox." This led into the event ''ComicBook/InhumansVsXMen'' and the relaunch ''ComicBook/ResurrXion''. This was a return to nostalgia, with the team books again being split in [[ComicBook/XMenBlue blue]] and [[ComicBook/XMenGold gold]]. Though there were some popular decisions, like [[ComicBook/AllNewWolverine giving Laura Kinney the Wolverine name]] and [[ComicBook/XMenRed bringing back the original Jean Grey from the dead to lead her own book]], overall, many of the decisions were criticized by both fans and critics and many of the books were unpopular.
* '''Disassembled and the Age of X-Man:''' A [[ComicBook/UncannyXMen2018 new relaunch in 2018]] saw the storyline ''X-Men Disassembled'', which led into the ''ComicBook/AgeOfXMan'' event. While the event itself was considered good, this era is generally considered lackluster or downright mean, considering the number of deaths that occur in the main book. This era didn't last long, as it seemed only a stopgap until Creator/JonathanHickman took over the books and launched the next era...
* '''[[ComicBook/XMenTheKrakoanAge The Krakoan Age]]:''' Following the two mini-series ''[[ComicBook/XMen2019 House of X]]'' and ''[[ComicBook/XMen2019 Powers of X]]'' and the formation of the mutant island nation of Krakoa, a relaunch called ''ComicBook/DawnOfX'' happened. Krakoa ushered in a new era of prosperity for mutants, especially since they found a way to bring the dead back to life. The [[ComicBook/XMen2021 new Krakoan team of X-Men]] was formed, which initially consisted of Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Polaris, Rogue, Sunfire, Synch, and Wolverine (Laura Kinney). However, Krakoa also holds some deep, dark secrets, especially concerning Moira [=MacTaggert=].
* '''From the Ashes:''' After the fall of Krakoa, the X-Men are scattered across the United States without a central base of operations (due to the X-Mansion being converted into a prison created to contain an individual known as "Inmate X"), and three core teams --based in Alaska, New Orleans, and Chicago-- each take on a different mission statement in their quest to protect a world that still hates and fears them.

Later additions included '''[[AllYourPowersCombined Mimic]]''' (the first non-mutant, and only briefly), '''[[Characters/XMen60sMembers Polaris]]''', and Cyclops' long-lost brother '''[[Characters/XMen60sMembers Havok]]''' to the roster, as well as retconning '''[[VoluntaryShapeshifting Changeling]]''' into becoming a member to facilitate one of the first instances of DeathIsCheap.
* '''The All-New All-Different X-Men:''' Introduced in the pivotal ''Giant-Size X-Men'' #1, in which Professor X and Cyclops were forced to recruit a new, international, multi-racial team, made up of '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsStorm Storm]]''' from Kenya, '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsNightcrawler Nightcrawler]]''' from West Germany, '''[[Characters/XMen70sMembers Colossus]]''' from Russia, '''[[SuperScream Banshee]]''' from Ireland, '''[[PowerOfTheSun Sunfire]]''' from Japan, '''[[LightningBruiser Thunderbird]]''' from an Apache nation, and, [[BreakoutCharacter of course]], '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsLogan Wolverine]]''' from Canada, to save the old team from a failed mission on [[Characters/XMenKrakoans Krakoa]]. This team continued into the main ''X-Men'' title from issue #94 onwards; Sunfire left the team almost immediately, and Thunderbird was promptly [[SacrificialLion killed off]]. Marvel Girl soon rejoined the team, apparently died and resurrected with greatly expanded powers, and took on the new name Phoenix. Eventually Banshee had to leave the team due to injury, and the story of Jean's growing power tragically culminated in ''ComicBook/TheDarkPhoenixSaga''.
* '''From Dark Phoenix to the Brood Saga:''' Soon after the death of Jean Grey, teenager '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsKittyPryde Kitty Pryde]]''' joined the team and initially took the codename Sprite. Cyclops took an unspecified leave of absence to grieve, leaving Storm as the leader. Angel rejoined the team as well, but left after ten issues over a dispute about whether Wolverine was trustworthy. Soon afterwards Cyclops fell back into the X-Men's orbit and remained with the team until the end of the Brood Saga; during this period, a de-powered [[Characters/MarvelComicsCarolDanvers Carol Danvers]] was also a close associate of the X-Men (although not an official member).
* '''From the Brood Saga to the Mutant Massacre:''' Cyclops left the team again, seemingly for good this time, getting married and settling down for a normal life in Alaska. Kitty Pryde abandoned the codename Sprite, becoming Ariel and eventually Shadowcat. Former villain '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsRogue Rogue]]''' defected to the X-Men and soon became an integral part of the team. '''[[Characters/XMen80sMembers Rachel Summers]]''', the [[KidFromTheFuture daughter from the alternate future]] of Cyclops and Jean from ''ComicBook/DaysOfFuturePast'', travelled back to the present day and claimed her mother's mantle as the second Phoenix. Storm temporarily left the team as well after being de-powered, leaving Nightcrawler as team leader, before returning to the team as a BadassNormal and reclaiming her position as leader. Professor X departed for outer space and left charge of the Xavier School to '''Characters/{{Ma|rvelComicsMagneto}}gneto''', who had gradually undergone a HeelFaceTurn.
* '''Post-Mutant-Massacre and the Australia era:''' The X-Men underwent a drastic shift in their line-up after the Mutant Massacre, with only Storm, Wolverine and Rogue remaining as members; new recruits included '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsPsylocke Psylocke]]''', '''Characters/{{Dazzler}}''', '''[[Characters/XMenMojoverse Longshot]]''' (who was an alien rather than a mutant) and the return of Havok. Storm took a leave of absence to go on a quest to recover her superpowers, leaving Wolverine as team leader for the first time – around the same time she returned, Colossus was also able to return as an active team member. During the period where the team were presumed dead and operating from exile in the Australian outback, they were aided by the mysterious elderly portal-creating mutant '''Gateway'''.
* '''Dissolution and Rebirth:''' During a period where the X-Men were dissolved and scattered across the world, Wolverine teamed up with newcomer '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsJubilee Jubilee]]''' and reunited with a now [[FreakyFridayFlip body-swapped]] Psylocke, the once-again-active Banshee teamed up with long-time recurring character '''[[GadgeteerGenius Forge]]''', and Storm became travelling companions with the newly introduced '''[[Characters/MarvelComicsGambit Gambit]]'''. These seven eventually came together as a new team of X-Men and reunited with Professor X, although this lineup was short-lived.
* '''Blue and Gold:''' At the time when a second ongoing main ''X-Men'' title was launched to run alongside ''Uncanny X-Men'', the main characters were split into two teams: the "Blue" team from ''X-Men'' consisted of Cyclops, Beast, Wolverine, Psylocke, Jubilee, Rogue and Gambit, while the "Gold" team from ''ComicBook/UncannyXMen'' consisted of Storm, Jean Grey, Archangel (formerly Angel), Iceman, Colossus, Forge and new character '''Bishop'''. Forge left the X-Men and ended up joining ComicBook/XFactor; '''Revanche''', in Psylocke's original body, briefly joined the Blue Team and left shortly before her death; Colossus defected to Magneto's Acolytes due to the TraumaCongaLine he had been living through, while at the same time Wolverine also left the X-Men after having the adamantium ripped out of his body; finally, Jubilee left to become a founding member of the new class of young mutants in ''ComicBook/GenerationX''. By the end of this era, the Blue and Gold teams had more-or-less merged into one big team.
* '''Onslaught era:''' Following ''ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse'', former ''ComicBook/NewMutants'' and ''ComicBook/XForce'' team leader '''Cannonball''' was recruited to the main X-Men team. The events of ''Onslaught'' forced Professor X to depart; around the same time, the X-Men discovered '''Joseph''', whom they believed to be a de-aged amnesiac Magneto. Archangel and Psylocke left the team not long after, and Wolverine returned. During ''Operation Zero Tolerance'', the X-Men were joined by the Morlock girl '''Marrow''', South African boy '''Maggott''' and '''Dr Cecilia Reyes'''; meanwhile, Gambit was cast out of the X-Men in disgrace. Cyclops, Jean and Iceman all took indefinite leaves of absence. Joseph left the team after learning he was ''not'' Magneto. At the end of this era Cannonball left the X-Men and soon rejoined X-Force, Maggott departed to join Generation X,[[note]]although he stayed with them only briefly[[/note]] and Cecilia quit the superhero life to work as a doctor again.
* '''From the Hunt For Xavier to The Twelve:''' Beginning with Storm, Wolverine, Rogue and Marrow as the only active X-Men, they were reunited with many former teammates: Nightcrawler, Shadowcat and Colossus rejoined after the disbanding of Excalibur; Gambit was invited back soon after; and Professor X returned in the ''Hunt for Xavier'' storyline. The enormous crossover story ''The Twelve'' also brought back many other former teammates.
* '''X-Men: Revolution era:''' After a six-month TimeSkip the X-Men's team lineup has gone through another change, with each main book featuring a different set of characters: ''Uncanny X-Men'' focused on Storm, Jean, Beast, Rogue, Gambit and former ''New Mutants'' and ''X-Force'' mentor '''Cable''', while the adjectiveless title focused on Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Psylocke, Archangel, Colossus and the new '''Thunderbird'''. Towards the end of this era, Colossus died in a HeroicSacrifice.
* '''ComicBook/NewXMen:''' A relaunch in 2001 by writer Creator/GrantMorrison which revamped the X-Men for the modern era, giving them black and yellow outfits and introducing darker, more mature, and more complex storylines, like the Genoshan genocide and having Xavier's School become an actual school, with hundreds of mutant students. The book revitalized the franchise and was critically and commercially successful, but was also controversial for some of its takes on characters, like Magneto. This era introduced the character of '''X-23''', Wolverine's clone daughter, as well as the "special class" of Xavier's students, like '''Quentin Quire''', '''Glob Herman''', and the '''Stepford Cuckoos'''.
* '''Decimation, Hope, and Utopia:''' At the end of ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'', the Scarlet Witch depowered 99% of all mutants in an event dubbed the "Decimation" or "M-Day," causing a massive period of upheaval and death in the X-Men's world. This led to a period where the X-Men were less concerned with superheroics and more with preventing their own extinction. This eventually led to a trilogy of crossovers (''[[ComicBook/XMenMessiahComplex Messiah Complex]]'', ''[[ComicBook/XMenSecondComing Second Coming]]'', and ''Messiah War'') about '''Hope Summers''', the first mutant baby born after M-Day and so-called "mutant messiah." This era also saw the X-Men move to San Francisco and then their own island made of the remains of Asteroid M, Utopia.
* '''Schism, the Phoenix Five, and the Original Five:''' An era defined by the conflict between Cylops and Wolverine. The ''Schism'' event saw Wolverine split from Cyclops and take half of the X-Men back to Westchester in order to [[ComicBook/WolverineAndTheXMenMarvelComics run the Jean Grey School]], while Cyclops ran his own [[ComicBook/UncannyXMen2011 "Extinction Team."]] And then ''ComicBook/AvengersVsXMen'' saw Cyclops, Emma Frost, [[ComicBook/SubMariner Namor]], Colossus, and Magik each get a portion of the Phoenix Force and try to fix the world. In the aftermath of that event, Cyclops was declared a mutant terrorist and found himself on the run, while Beast brought [[ComicBook/AllNewXMen the Original Five X-Men to the present.]] This status quo eventually ended with ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015''.
* '''Inhumans and [=ResurrXion=]:''' Post-''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'', mutants were again on the brink of extinction due to the Inhuman's Terrigen cloud poisoning them with "M-Pox." This led into the event ''ComicBook/InhumansVsXMen'' and the relaunch ''ComicBook/ResurrXion''. This was a return to nostalgia, with the team books again being split in [[ComicBook/XMenBlue blue]] and [[ComicBook/XMenGold gold]]. Though there were some popular decisions, like [[ComicBook/AllNewWolverine giving Laura Kinney the Wolverine name]] and [[ComicBook/XMenRed bringing back the original Jean Grey from the dead to lead her own book]], overall, many of the decisions were criticized by both fans and critics and many of the books were unpopular.
* '''Disassembled and the Age of X-Man:''' A [[ComicBook/UncannyXMen2018 new relaunch in 2018]] saw the storyline ''X-Men Disassembled'', which led into the ''ComicBook/AgeOfXMan'' event. While the event itself was considered good, this era is generally considered lackluster or downright mean, considering the number of deaths that occur in the main book. This era didn't last long, as it seemed only a stopgap until Creator/JonathanHickman took over the books and launched the next era...
* '''[[ComicBook/XMenTheKrakoanAge The Krakoan Age]]:''' Following the two mini-series ''[[ComicBook/XMen2019 House of X]]'' and ''[[ComicBook/XMen2019 Powers of X]]'' and the formation of the mutant island nation of Krakoa, a relaunch called ''ComicBook/DawnOfX'' happened. Krakoa ushered in a new era of prosperity for mutants, especially since they found a way to bring the dead back to life. The [[ComicBook/XMen2021 new Krakoan team of X-Men]] was formed, which initially consisted of Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Polaris, Rogue, Sunfire, Synch, and Wolverine (Laura Kinney). However, Krakoa also holds some deep, dark secrets, especially concerning Moira [=MacTaggert=].
* '''From the Ashes:''' After the fall of Krakoa, the X-Men are scattered across the United States without a central base of operations (due to the X-Mansion being converted into a prison created to contain an individual known as "Inmate X"), and three core teams --based in Alaska, New Orleans, and Chicago-- each take on a different mission statement in their quest to protect a world that still hates and fears them.

* SmokingIsEdgy:
** Wolverine, one of the archetypical anti-heroes of the franchise, has been depicted as smoking, both in and out of uniform, to hammer the point home of how much of a rulebreaker he is, compared to boyscouts like X-leader Cyclops.
** Similarly, GentlemanThief Gambit is also depicted smoking a cigarette in some comics. The item contributes to his "bad boy", unaffected persona.
** ''ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse'' is a DarkerAndEdgier, CrapsackWorld founded by Apocalypse, a mutant supremacist who believes in the survival of the fittest. One of the denizens of this alternate reality is Dazzler, who is shown to light up cigarettes with her light powers. In the main reality, Dazzler is a singer, and has not been shown to smoke on panel.

A Clueless Aesop is a moral not handled with nuance. The mutant metaphor is hotly debated and the second example does not have a moral attached, leading me to think this is complaining.

Deleted line(s) 435,437 (click to see context) :

* CluelessAesop:
** In general? It's hard to take X-men seriously as a metaphor for oppressed groups when one takes into account that the X-men all have [[PersonOfMassDestruction dangerous superpowers]].
** In the 80s there was a one-shot called ''Heroes for Hope'' in which the X-Men take on famine in Africa... which was portrayed as a demon that feeds off of human misery. The demon in question was established to be merely a consequence of the misery in the area, which was caused by far more complex causes, but it was very very easy to interpret the story as "Africa's ills are caused by an ancient demon". At least Marvel gave the proceeds of the comic to charity.

* TheShameless: Emma Frost's lack of shame (or at least the ability to make people believe she lacks shame) is quite legendary. Besides her [[{{Stripperiffic}} choice in clothing]], Emma doesn't mind much when people see her naked. In ''New Mutants'' she teased Sean about him seeing her naked and in ''Wolverine: The Best There Is'', she didn't bother to put any clothes on when an emergency required her quick presence and ignored Scott's requests for her to put some clothes on. She and Hank even start joking about how much of a prude Scott can be. Emma is also very good at putting on an aloof front when people throw her past as a villain or her sexual history in her face.

* DependingOnTheWriter:
** Many of the characters, since there are a lot of them and have been a lot of writers.
** You'll also notice a subtle difference in the way sympathetic characters use the word "human" as a blanket term for both mutants and ordinary humans, but occasionally use it to mean just ordinary humans when it's clear from context they're not implying a value judgment. Under some writers, though, they'll avoid the second usage or use the word "human" exclusively for non-mutants (e.g. specifying "humans ''and mutants''" when talking to aliens). For a long time, this didn't vary from character to character, except for villains: the anti-mutant racists inhuman freaks unworthy of being part of humanity while evil mutants are emphasizing the supremacy of homo-sapiens-superior over mere {{Muggles}}. However with the recent Decimation and Endangered Species events, everyone is referring to mutants as a separate species from humans without regard to the good/bad implications.

* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: Why the Avengers and other non-mutant heroes on friendly terms with the X-Men don't get involved in their FantasticRacism troubles: because they don't have to deal with it themselves. {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d during the ComicBook/{{Civil War|2006}} when Emma Frost gives a WhatTheHellHero speech to Tony Stark asking why the X-Men should care about Stamford when none of the other heroes got involved after the destruction of Genosha.
** It's starting to get averted since the Heroic Age rolled by: the Avengers tried to help the X-Men out in dealing with Bastion (but predictably, couldn't do a thing, since Bastion raised a force field around Utopia so strong that not even [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Mjolnir]] could break through it; by the time it was gone, it was when [[spoiler:Hope had already blown Bastion to smithereens]]). The idea behind the Uncanny Avengers is also an effort to avert this following the ''ComicBook/AvengersVsXMen'' crisis: ostensibly, it's half veteran Avengers (Captain America, Thor and Scarlet Witch[[note]]Who is a mutant herself, for bonus points[[/note]]) and half veteran X-Men (Wolverine, Havok and Rogue).

Add to that Scott's brother Alex, their long-lost father (the {{space pirate|s}} Corsair), and the supervillain-ruler-of-a-galactic-empire Third Summers Brother (Vulcan), and the whole thing is just one big mess. Ironically, Scott started out as an orphan with no known family.

* CorruptedCharacterCopy
** ''X-Men'' foes the [[Characters/MarvelComicsShiar Imperial Guard]] of the Shi'ar were meant to be more antagonistic analogues to DC’s ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes''. The Imperial Guard’s leader Gladiator who is even more of a pastiche of Superman than Hyperion and Sentry. Like Supes Gladiator is a powerful alien with a mostly red outfit including BadassCape and ChestInsignia, he’s essentially the last of his kind, his real name is a portmanteau of both Superman’s Kryptonian and Earth names: “Kallark“, he’s very often only as StrongAsTheyNeedToBe like the Man of Steel and Gladiator was even named after [[Literature/{{Gladiator}} the book]] that directly influenced Superman’s creators. However unlike Superman, Gladiator is a haughty {{jerkass}} and while not overtly villainous he’s still a superpowered jingoistic bully compared to the idealistic hero that is Supes.
** ''X-Men'' villains The Brood were a corrupted character copy of the xenomorph monster from ''{{Film/Alien}}'', taking what the film presented as a wild animal following its reproductive and survival instincts and turning it into an entire society built around exploitation and torture of other species whose leaders not only force the masses to partake in but force them to ''[[MindRape enjoy]]'' it. The Brood were so effective that aspects of them actually got copied back into the original monster for ''Alien's'' sequels. ''However'', ''ComicBook/PlanetHulk'' shows that despite their reproductive method being problematic for other species, Brood isolated from the main society can be [[AntiVillain perfectly decent individuals]] otherwise. Far more agreeable than the original monster could ever be when left to its own devices.
