Best X-Run of the Decade Popularity Contest - Final

I made a list of more or less 48 runs , including solos and events/crossovers from the 2010s

Let´s hope we can gather a solid number of voters.

We know this wasn´t the best decade, but it could be fun anyways.

So...

Round 1 - Match 1

Storm (Greg Pak) vs X-Treme X-Men (Greg Pak)

Storm

Though I don't know about X-Treme X-Men so it kinda default.

Storm

I hope you included Remender's Uncanny X-Force since it's easily the best X book of the decade.

@thor_parker82: Yes it´s obviusly there.

But I won´t be so sure it could (hypotethicaly assuming this goes on that far) win

It´s not that loved in this forums. I think.

Really ? I have no idea why, all I've ever seen for it is praise everywhere else.

I don't think that's entirely true anyway, I made a thread like this a while ago but making a top 10 based on votes for the best runs EVER and Uncanny X-Force won 8th place.

@thor_parker82: Just to give you a recent example

You can skim through the comments to get the idea.

Weird, like I said, it won 8th best run ever in here and it is praised left and right everywhere I've seen, so a couple of guys in here saying they don't like it doesn't really change that, though I comoletely respect their opinion.

@thor_parker82: +1 on that

Hickman’s Avengers and Tomasi’s Superman better be on this too

Since this is on the X-Men forums I'm guessing he's only using X runs hehe.

I remembered there was once a thread where it was pitted against Kyle & Yost's X-Force, where it won by a lot, to @adamTRMM's disdain. Adam was like the only one who picked K&Y and was argueing with just about everybody. But that was back before I actually read Remember's Uncanny X-Force, so I couldn't vote at the time. 😕 K&Y stomp Remender, btw. >.>

@invain: Lel

Do you happen to have the link?

Well, both were kind of bad imo, but Storm.

@vishop_: @waitomegastorm: @theincrediblesuperhulk8642: @thor_parker82: @invain: @tdk_1997:

If you don´t want to be tagged , tell me, but , vote instead.

Storm wins 3-0

Round 1 - Match 2

X-Men: Blue (Bunn) vs Domino (Simone)

@invain:

😆😆😆

Where have you been mon ami?

Haven't read either of them honestly but I guess I will go with X-Men

@thor_parker82: I’m blind lmao, should change the title to best X-Runs.

In that case it’s Remender’s X-Force, Bunn’s Magneto, Aaron’s Wolverine, Hickman’s X-Men > Everything else

Welp, same as the last one. Pretty bad runs imo, but I would rather go with Domino.

Tbh I prefer X-Men Blue.

Completely agree

@vishop_: @waitomegastorm: @theincrediblesuperhulk8642: @thor_parker82: @invain: @tdk_1997:

X-Men: Blue wins 2-1

Round 1 - Match 3

AvX vs IvX

AVX

Both terrible, terrible that I can't even describe it. However, AvX at least had some reeeming points here and there.

AvX.

At least one of the little side stories had Hope knocking out Scarlet Witch.

AvX

@vishop_: @waitomegastorm: @theincrediblesuperhulk8642: @thor_parker82: @invain: @tdk_1997:

AvX wins 4-0

Round 1 - Match 4

X-Men: Red vs X-Force vol 5 (Brisson)

X-Men Red

Red

@ashetdust:

I forgot to tag you

Red.

X-Force the better writer. But I enjoyed the characters and storyline more for Red.

Red

There is nothing memorable or good about Brisson's run really.

X-Men Red

Both titles were pretty good. My vote goes to X-Men Red. It was nice seeing the real jean back and leading a team.

@adamtrmm: @invain: @theincrediblesuperhulk8642: @waitomegastorm: @thor_parker82: @ashetdust: @vishop_: @tdk_1997: @time1:

X-Men: Red wins 6-0

Round 1 - Match 5

Wolverine and the X-Men vol 1 (Aaron)

vs

All-New X-Men vol 2 (Hopeless)

All New XMen

Pass

Pass as well.

Wolverine and the X-Men

I still come around sometimes, i just don't post here very much due to not reading any of the modern comics. I do plan on reading Hickman's run eventually.

Wolverine and the X-Men.

Both titles were pretty disppointing. I didn't even read much of All-new x-men. My vote goes to Wolverine and the x-men. At least that series had some good issues, even though a majority of the series was bad. I mean that series had the Rachel grey issue. Which was one of the best comics of 2012.

@invain:

It has a very nice concept and moments but is super convoluted and inconsistent. Still worth reading overall.

OT, it's like choosing between Corona and Spanish flu...

I have to disagree, the only inconsistency were issues #2 & 3 from the main flagship title (X-Men) which in all honesty were awful, other than that, every single issue by Hickman, starting with the amazing House of X/Powers of X to the main title has been top notch.

@thor_parker82: Huh, I thought House of X #2 was the best issue of the whole HoxPox

By flagship title I mean the one called "X-Men #2", where Scott goes on a trip with Rachel and Cable to fight the foreign island, and "X-Men #3" with the old ladies called "Hordeculture" where they stomp Shaw, Scott and Emma.

The entirety of House of X/Powers of X was perfect, and "House of X #2" is indeed one of the best issue I have ever read.

@thor_parker82: oh shit then.

By contrast X-Men 4 was the best so far, and it really felt House of X-esque.

Followed by the one with Mystique and Destiny.

Nah X-Men 7 was the best issue lol. Though I guess to each of their own to this preference.

@vishop_: Yeah , if you enjoy the morally ambiguous and cultish aspects of Krakoa

Same could be said about Magneto from Issue 4 ;)

And I love Apocalypse.

I enjoyed X-Men 9 the best so far, it was cosmic with new concept additions and it felt the most Hickman issue of the series IMO. Either way, the fact that we all have different favorite issues goes to show that this is truly a great book.
