    I felt the same with the X-universe of comics decades ago, maybe it’s a cyclical thing, they just get so convoluted so quickly. I think last time I was reading any X-titles was back in the 90s, and I just checked out and stopped reading them regularly. Anytime I hear about some new development it seems to get more and more out there.

      yeah, they always do, the xmen line is usually a mess designed to shake as much money as they can with continual crossovers and events(even more than other superhero comics i mean lol). Thats the reason i just wait for runs to finish and pick up only stuff that its decent and contained in specific books. Wish they had a single main book where you could follow the story with minimal interference like Morrison’s New xmen, the first era of Claremont and all that.
