Hot take: The 80s were the real peak era for X-men, not the 90s (comic-wise).

80s marvel in general was

80s DC was just as legendary.

Hell, the 80s was the GOAT decade as a comic book stan

You can tell who was reading the 80s comics versus who was reading the late 90s early 00s comics, based on their view of cyclops.

80s era(goat) cyclops was a square teachers pets nerd. the newer shyt tried to make him into a cac malcolm x/magneto light.
the movies for the most part have stayed true to his 80s persona. which i prefer because it makes his interaction with wolverine funnier,

I have all volumes of X-Men Grand Design, which do nothing but prove this opinion

Yep too much heat going on underground comics like TMNT, crisis on infinite earths, DC graphic novels, secret wars, daredevil, the entire amazing/spectacular Spider-Man 80s storylines wereprobably the most influential era of spider man outside of the stan lee/ultimate era, I'm forgetting a lot more but comic book fans were eating in the 80s-1993

When they let the artist (Jim Lee and Rob Liefeld) take over the writing duties they X-books took a downfall storytelling wise

What's ironic is they basically forced Claremont off the books only for about a year later Lee left Marvel to help start Image.

Don't sleep on Watchmen

 

[Days of Future Piff]

The first two episodes of X-men '97 just dropped.
Notice how...

Spoiler

They're leaning heavily into the 80s storylines like Lifedeath, the Trial of Magneto, and Inferno.

80s Claremont >>>
