I love these...

My favorite comics are those featuring the Xmen from the Silver and Bronze Age and I love crossover books, so its only natural that my collecting focus gravitated toward Xmen crossovers during that time period. I started rereading some of those this past weekend in fact...cant get enough. As I looked through my collection I noticed I also had some crossovers that werent Xmen related, and I really liked them too. To clarify, when I say crossover Im referring to a story that started in one title and the continued in another...not to be confused with a guest appearance which is self contained within one book...I like those too, I just dont think of them as crossovers per se. Now Im looking to collect, at least VF reading copies for now, of any Marvel crossovers featuring characters I like...heroes or villains, Xmen or not. I started putting together a list, but would love some help if any of you fine people can think of any that I might like.

There are other crossovers I really enjoyed from the Copper and Modern Age like the Mutant Massacre, The Fall of the Mutants, and even Vendetta that just ran through Cable and XForce and Guardians of the Galaxy, but for the purpose of this journal I just wanted to focus on the Silver and Bronze Age. If anyone can think of any great crossovers I might like, please let me know. Thanks!

Til next time...
