X-Men: God Loves Man Kills
The Essential X-Men Story
I call this Claremont's thesis as an X-Men writer. While certain panels might not have aged well, the X-Men's story of civil rights and discrimination is perfectly condensed into this one book. This is the X-Men.
If you read only one X-Men comic in your life, please read this one.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Fear of a Black Hat
Fear of a Black Hat, a Rusty Cundieff film, is one of my all-time favorite movies when I need to laugh. We’re talking Kentucky-Fried Movie territory. You want the uncut version, otherwise you don’t get the Ice Froggy Frog video (below) at the beginning or the discussion about artistic integrity in Cleveland. I own the cut version (😥)—couldn’t find the uncut version at that time, no extra money for it right now, but you aren’t me, so buy the uncut version.

An excellent and concise review!
I'll have to give this one a read! 🩷
I've watched the cartoon and the movies and been debating trying a comic. I might try this one when I get around to it.
This really is the quintessential X-Men arc.
I've only watched the X-men cartoon as a kid! Loved your review!
