A watershed moment for comics. Groundbreaking. Throw in all the cliches. But this series still resonates today.

The Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative may be finishing up this weekend! 🤞

I forget if posted this but I have so many fond memories of reading the crap out of this series. Great premise for kids at that age and so much history here. Especially about 66% way through the series *hint hint*

I believe the phenomenal #AlexRoss did an homage version of this cover...need to look.

The Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative continues!

Finally ordered the books in random boxes and wound up with about 4 longboxes worth and putting them in order.

Check out this gem. Loved this series, art, story, all of it. Great blast from the past. (I don't think I posted this, and if I did, enjoy it again🤣)

Getting in some work on phase 2 of the Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative during all-day #SuperBowl pregame, and I came across this gem of a book and had to put it out there.

Pulled this out of the box and was like "holy shit"! Check out the lineup of the peeps on this book!

And this phase of the Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative is taking much longer than I thought.

So far the books in assorted storage boxes now fill 3 longboxes 😱

3 more assorted boxes left to organize, gonna have to purchase a cardboard longbox or two to help organize before inventorying and moving into the short plastic boxes. Shouldn't have tossed all the older ones so quickly 🤦‍♂️

The Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative continues, albeit slowly.

Many books packed in various storage boxes in a random fashion will make the process of bagging & boarding, sorting, then putting them in their proper shortbox a more tedious and methodical affair during this phase.

But it doesn't mean I'm not finding some nuggets of gold to share, like this phenomenal series.

Now the real work begins. There's about maybe 10ish various assorted boxes of #comics that are boxed up totally randomly. Ordering, bagging/boarding gonna take a lil longer this time. Here we go!

Into the Ys of the Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative and there's only one title in it.

Fasten your seatbelts, and strap yourselves in. Keep your tray tables in their closed upright position, keep all extremities inside the car at all times and please hold on to the bar! I mean look at that 3rd cover!

This is what happens when you touch anything technological before a full cup of coffee.

While Unlimited is the last of the X-books, I missed a pile.

So, I give you more foil. #Xmen2099

The next X-title in the Great #ComicBook Re-inventorying Initiative is a doozy, and was probably one of the most widely awaited book to come out in the #90s: #XMen

Writer: #ChrisClaremont
Penciller: #JimLee
Inker: #ScottWilliams

Their work just jumped off the page. Not as in your face as say the work of #RobLiefeld, but just as exciting and their stuff told a true story. This was a great book growing up.

And this is one of those #comicBooks that I was really excited to get to.

The art of #RobLiefeld, to me, epitomizes the #90s. Crazy, off the wall, loud characters/covers/scenes. And say what you want to say about his work, if anyone even mentions #comics from the 90s, everyone thinks about Rob and his awesome and phenomenal work.

I mean look at these f'n covers!!
