Ranking #60YearsOfX Decades #1: 1980s
The 80s begin w/two of the most important #XMen stories ever. From there, Claremont takes the book to its creative zenith, breaking new ground alongside a Murderer's Row of artists: Byrne, Cockrum, Smith, JRJr, Silvestri, Lee & more! #XMen60
Ranking #60YearsOfX Decades #2: 2000s
The one-two punch of the Morrison & Whedon/Cassaday runs (riffing on Claremont in their own ways) help overcome the god-level awfulness of the Austen run, aided by the underrated Brubaker, Carey & Fraction runs. #XMen60 #XMen
Ranking #60YearsOfX Decades #3: 1990s
The #XMen reach their commercial zenith on the backs of superstar artists (and I begin reading their adventures) even as the creative quality starts to dip, and the franchise is asked to support a company in turmoil. #XMen60
Ranking #60YearsOfX Decades #4: 1970s
The back of the decade features some of the most entertaining & foundational #XMen stories ever, as a new team is born & Claremont, Cockrum & Byrne get rolling. In the front half, the X-Men exist (barely) as infrequent guest stars.

Ranking #60YearsOfX Decades #5: 2010s
Bendis' run is interesting (til the O5 wear out their welcome) & this does give us the start of Krakoa, but mostly a middling-to-nad decade as Marvel struggles to reconcile the #XMen w/broader corporate interests pre-Fox merger.
#XMen60
We've celebrated #60YearsOfX, but with 5 days left in the month, let's finish out #XMen60 by ranking the 6 decades of its existence! In 6th place is the 1960s, in which the power of Kirby & Adams can't overcome a middling series lacking an identity, heading torwards cancellation.
360 - Year 60 Memorable Moment: Face Off
Lots of memorable moments this year, from Magneto's last stand to the repeated deaths of Sinister, but I'll never forget the time Moira killed Banshee and used his face as a mask to sneak onto Krakoa.

353 - Year 59 Fun Fact: Retooled Trial
The Trial of Magneto was meant to be an arc in X-Factor but Marvel didn't believe sales on the book were "big enough" for the story, so they spun it off into its own limited series (& cancelled X-Factor)
