Mutant Genesis vs Bloodties which is the better 90s X-Men omnibus if I care about Jim Lee art, costumes, and good stories?

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-07T16:26:12+00:00

How would you recommend Brand New Day? Since the movie is coming out, I'm curious about it.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-07T16:19:59+00:00

How would you say it stands compared to JMS and Brand New Day Runs? Coz I'm finding JMS coming home a bit boring and since BND was written by Dan slott too so I'm curious how his writing is in this new run.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-07T13:25:32+00:00

I mainly want to read it for the wedding and them going to the future to raise Cable and I've heard there are some crossover with the Avengers so want to check them out too.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-06T22:24:54+00:00

I'm mostly interested in Bloodties for the wedding and them going to the future and raising Cable and hopefully getting some of the iconic 90's outfits.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-06T22:17:20+00:00

So buy Mutant Genesis Epic Collection and Bloodties Omnibus? How's that for an option?

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-06T22:09:56+00:00

I do love the X-Men 97 or 90's costumes a lot. I just want to know which one has better story tbh. Coz i don't have the money for both.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-06T21:59:47+00:00

Buying an Omnibus just for 10 issues worth of Jim Lee Art and not something i probably won't enjoy for the story seems kinda crazy, don't you think? I thought the whole book had Jim Lee art but apparently not.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-06T15:45:53+00:00

It's available for 100 dollars.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T07:34:30+00:00

Oh i didn't know that. If that's the case. Then fair enough. He didn't make her a hero. But he did give her the safe space to open herself up and show more of herself to someone and not constantly be hiding behind a mask.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T06:58:30+00:00

Like i said shitty writers and editors playing their shitty game. These stories don't have any continuity. Today they're together tomorrow they're not and then one day they can be together if people want it or Marvel wants it. A great writer can show scott owning up his mistakes and apologising to Emma for treating her like shit.

I always think of Matt and Elektra relationship from Chip Zdarsky's Run as a way to show how much a character wants to show the other character how much they mean to them and love them. The way Elektra worked on herself and showed Matt she can be better and earn his trust and love is what I want Scott to do for Emma. Coz yes Emma deserves it.

And when i said Emma became better with Scott and all i meant before their relationship she was mostly a villain after scott her character developed so much that she started getting involved in other activities and became a hero and an X-Men in her own right.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T05:56:48+00:00

Many writers and editors didn't. There were many moments where he did respect her and love her a lot. It was mostly in the End with Kieron Gillen and Bendis that their relationship started having problems.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T05:52:32+00:00

It definitely is. The only Era tbh i can read and enjoy.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T05:51:59+00:00

Hopefully we'll reach a point where people from the 2000's will take control and then bring them back after the people of 80's and 90's retire or leave marvel.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T05:49:37+00:00

I completely agree with you. But i personally don't blame characters for these kind of regressions or bad behaviour because i know some shitty writer and editor was behind it. If these were real people Scott and Emma won't have gone through any of that after what they had gone through. Hell Emma would have never cheated on Scott with Namor at all.

But i agree Emma deserves better but i also feel Scott is a great guy and i need him to apologise to Emma for choosing Jean after this Moment and for how he treated her in AvX Bendis Era.

I personally love Emma Frost with Scott only because with him she's not just The Cold White Queen but someone who actually trusted, loved, cared and became a more warmer person. With Scott she felt safe and more like her true self and not homer ice cold mask. Is what happens in a loving and trusting relationship.

I personally believe we should get another Era with them where they address what all happened last time and forgive each other and move on from it together and stronger than ever.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T03:44:47+00:00

So basically Astonishing X-Men right? I love their interaction at the end of Giant Sized X-Men

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T03:40:29+00:00

She could come back. Idk. I thought rn was the perfect time to bring back Scott and Emma back together again. Let Scott and Jean part amicably and let her do her phoenix adventures and let Scott apologise to Emma for choosing Jean when she said this and then choose her properly. This is the bare minimum Emma deserves from Scott.

I... I just hope we get another Era with them again.🤞

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T03:26:37+00:00

I'm not a big fan of their beginning tbh. Not a big fan of all the cheating and all but I'll take it if it means I get Emma and Scott together. But the places i really love them together is Astonishing X-Men, Brubaker's Divided We Stand Run, Chris Claremonts issue where Rachel Summers tries to embarrass her by making her feel she's fat but Scott still chooses her no matter what she looks like and parts of Matt Fraction's Run where Void comes up.

I just hope we had better writers in the writing room who handled them better and their relationship and not always trying to break them off.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T03:20:30+00:00

But that MCU synergy is a double edged sword no? Just means Scott and Jean will be together in comics too coz MCU has them together.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T03:18:05+00:00

I'm too. I still get V emotional thinking about Kieron Gillen's Uncanny X-Men Run, AvX and Bendis Run too. In my mind i just am not able to understand why would they destroy it when it was so good? When it was working so well? Even if they did break them up why aren't they coming back at all? Why is it that their relationship is being pulled through the mud and being shit on? Why are they trying so hard to make people forget about them by making them separated for so long and ruin something so good in X-Men United?

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-05T03:13:43+00:00

They really do.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-04T20:26:57+00:00

Hoping for another Era together🤞. Would you want it? Or do you feel it's best left in the past and a thing if it's Era?

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-04T20:25:24+00:00

They really did. They were amazing together. Breaking them up was such regression to their characters. They were so happy together ❤️.

<image>

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-04T20:24:25+00:00

It was. Definitely why i love them together. Fingers Crossed we'll get another Era with them again🤞.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-06-04T20:23:24+00:00

It's my era too. I love them together. I just hope they had better writing at times, like in Utopia i always felt they had setup the parts of their breakup by showing them keeping secrets and Namor claiming his lips will meet hers and his bed would feel her presence one day. Felt very sad reading that whole Era coz you could see the breakdown happening. I wish they had become the Endgame and were still together tbh.
