Rather, I enjoyed the combination of stories that focused on the metaphor and those that didn’t.įrom the stories about discrimination to the stories about the X-Men hanging out, and everything in between, I loved the variety. And it’s not that I only enjoyed the stories that focused on the metaphor. While reading this storyline, I’ve been thinking about what drew me to the X-Men years ago and what it means to be a fan of a meaningful story that’s been published by a large media company for decades.Įver since watching the X-Men: Evolution cartoon show on Saturday mornings, I’ve been a fan of the X-Men and the mutant metaphor has always been a part of what I enjoy about the stories. The X-Men’s new storyline House of X/ Powers of X, which promised to introduce a new era of X-Men stories, has passed its midpoint.
