THANK YOU adamtrmm!!!!!

Ok so I have a few variants...

Either:

Husk, Dani Moonstar, and Pixie

or

Sage, Wolfsbane, and Dust

or

Mercury, Dazzler, and Stacy X (bring her back... she's the "edge" the team really needs)

@oldnightcrawler: You bring up some valid points but still, those New X-Men characters flourished due to good writing and great stories. Quire and Genesis I gave the exception to, and Oya and Broo are characters I can't stand, along with Shark Girl, Sprite, and all of those other transparent characters. They are not enticing, not even remotely interesting. Characters like Anole and Pixie played the roles of background fillers since their inception but were never cannon fodder. They were developed into becoming amazing characters full of depth, perspective, and meaning. They continued along their paths of development throughout two books while these newer characters have done nothing but fill the background and act as cannon fodder. It's all due to bad writing, the characters represent and mirror what the writers put into them. That's why they're boring, exhausting, and dull.

Those New X-Men characters became so loved because of their intense depth-driven characterization. They endured such development from watching their depowered classmates get blown-up right in front of them to nearly escaping the grasps of a mutant-hungry Predator X to enduring the harsh environment of Limbo and the Darkchilde. What can be said of these "new" x-characters that have been introduced? The New X-Men's characterization evolved from many stories and issue-to-issue development, while these newer characters have had this WaTXM book for awhile now and nothing significant has occurred to make me fall completely and utterly in love or enthralled by their characters. The writing has been transparent and lack-lusting since its inception. If anything, Quire has stepped up to the plate, evolved into a pretty cool character and Genesis has always interested me, but that's it. Those two character's weren't even introduced in WaTXM.

Exactly... I'm glad you agree. The book is crap and has been crap since the beginning. Nothing memorable or worth mentioning has come forth from that book. The writing is horrendous, the artwork is too childish, and the characters are too transparent and forgetable.

Thank you... My point exactly!

New X-Men: Academy X was the book to bring me back to X-Men full time... I was floating around reading different books here and there from different publishers, but this series is what reeled me back in. I loved all of the deep relationships, well-developed characters, and endless drama and guilt... it was the perfect X-book in my opinion. And now what do we have?? Wolverine and the X-Men is crap, always has been always will be because their characters, except for a couple, are all transparent canonfodder and background throw-aways.

I want to see the next step in evolution for these characters... Let them form their own team and go off on adventures and explorations as the next generation. G-d knows they've had enough schooling.

Not cool man... I just shed a tear.

That and the way they keep referring to "beating" Pixie... poor girl!

Here are mine:

1) Academy X/New X-Men by Kyle and Yost

2) X-Factor by PAD

3) Uncanny X-Force by Remender

4) X-Force by Kyle and Yost

5) Uncanny X-Men up to Messiah Complex

6) X-Men by Austen then Carey

7) Ultimate Comics X-Men by Spencer and Wood

8) X-treme X-Men by Claremont

9) Astonishing X-Men by Whedon

10) X-Men Legacy by Carey

A team-up:

A bloodthirsty Wolfsbane mixed with a high-powered Storm mixed with an immoral Kitty mixed with a hyped-up Blink mixed with Uncanny Psylocke... I think Gamora would lose.
