I'm reading through the continuity guide at https://www.continuityguide.net (check it out it's great) and I'm on X-Treme X-Men Savage Land. I was originally excited for X-Treme X-Men as the 616 X-Men are a Marvel blindspot for me. I really like Rogue, Gambit, Bishop and Storm but I read issue #1-4 of X-Treme X-Men and it's really hard to get through its so meandering and wordy. I know it's written by Claremont who's a legend in the X-Men but at this point comic story telling was different and he's outside of his prime. My question is does he ever tone down the full pages of text boxes, narration and thought bubbles and let us see the story rather than tell us or is that just his style even throughout the modern era? If that's the case am missing anything by skipping the rest of Claremont's stuff from the modern era, so the rest of X-Treme X-Men #5-46, Uncanny X-Men #444-475, Excalibur (2004) #1-14 and New Excalibur #1-24? Thanks 🙂
