Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kobold Avenger" data-source="post: 1448819" data-attributes="member: 779">"Reloaded" because it's the end of one era for X-Men with the departure of New X-Men's writer Grant Morrison (who also did The Invisibles, Filth, Arkham Asylum, Animal Man and more) to his exclusive contract with DC Comics/Vertigo.The main differences in the last few years was he was writing X-Men as more sci-fi (with some weird ideas), and depict the X-Men more as political activists rather than superheroes.  Here's a short summary of what happened (there's some spoilers below)....The school expanded from having about dozen students to having hundreds of students much like the movies.  Professor X came out of the closet on being a mutant, and made the X-Men public.  The X-Men became international as the X-Corporation having to staff it with second-tier X-team members like Domino, M, and Sunfire.  There's a cult of humans running around wanting to become mutants by grafting mutant parts to themselves.  The mutant nation of Genosha was wiped out by mega-sentinels.  An entity known as Sublime was behind everything.  Most of the time a group of students mainly composed of the Stepford Cuckoos a group of telepathic sisters who took after Emma Frost, Angel Salvadore a part-fly/trailer-trash girl, and Barnell "Beak" Bohusk a Dutch kid who looks like a chicken saved the X-Men many times.The phoenix entity returned and Jean Grey died yet again.  Magneto is dead yet again.  Weapon X was revealed to actually be Weapon 10, as Weapon XII, XIII, XIV and XV showed out.  Prof. X quit as the headmaster of the school, and Emma Frost and Scott Summers who are now a couple are the headmasters of the school.</blockquote>
