    X-Men: Revolution – Counter X: X-Force 102 - 109, Generation X 63 - 70, X-Man 63 - 66

    The Revolution continues! Nico & TK look at the other titles that dominate the Revolution era of X-Men by looking at all the “kid” teams – a look at the paramilitary turned spy crew of X-Force, the school-turned-X-Men team of Generation, and the excellent redefinition of X-Man. The pair do not agree across the board and raise complicated questions about the evolution of the line within itself – if the main line goes back to an evolved form of itself, what happens to the books about “othering?” The X-Titles will never be the same! Read along with X-Force 102 - 109, Generation X 63 - 70, X-Man 63 - 66 - it’s all this and more on an all new X Is For Comics!
