The definitive, chronological, and up-to-date guide on collecting X-Men ongoing series – including X-Men solo series – via omnibuses, hardcovers, and trade paperback graphic novels. A part of Crushing Krisis’s Crushing Comics. Last updated April 2016 with titles scheduled for release through December 2016.
he X-Men universe consists of a lot of comic titles as one of Marvel’s most-popular properties and the first after Spider-Man to develop its own set of spin-off series.
Ever since the successive launch of New Mutants, X-Factor, Excalibur, and Wolverine in the 1980s there have never been less than five X-titles in circulation counting both team books and X-Men solo series.
The biggest titles with the lengthiest runs tend to be team books, followed by X-Men solo endeavors from Wolverine, Cable, and Deadpool. However, there are many other X-Men ongoing series that last just a few years and are less collected than their more popular brethren.
This page lists every X-Men ongoing title that occurred in the main Marvel Universe (Earth-616). “Ongoing” means the titles – however brief – were not advertised as limited series (i.e., headlined with “Issue # of N”). The biggest, most-long-running titles will link to their own guides, but titles with a shorter lifespan are explained right here.
If you are looking for limited series and one-shots (of which there are many), see X-Men Limited Series & One-Shots.

- #5 & 10 during #94 and #2 after XM#94
- #3 after XM#95
- #4 after XM#96

- #6 after XM#97
- #16 before or after XM#99, as it’s actually the earliest Banshee and Black Tom story and XM#99 is Tom’s debut

- #11 as a bridge from XM#103-104 for Storm
- #15 after XM#106 (this is the earliest Starjammers story)

- #31 & 40 directly prior to XM#125 for Professor X & Nightcrawler, respectively (after Bizarre Adventures #27 for Nightcrawler; sources conflict and have #39 here as well, but it seems more likely to fit with XM#129m below)
- #32 during XM#126
- #33 during XM#127
- #34 just prior to XM #129 (for Emma Frost – however, this spoils her debut, so you might want to save it for after)

- #36 directly after XM#129
- #37-38 after XM #131 for Dazzler (and prior to Amazing Spider-Man #203 and Dazzler #1)

Originally planned as a third series of X-Men: Legacy, this instead became aChris Claremont written X-Men solo book! It felt very like the middle bit of Claremont’s Excalibur, with much swashbuckling, romance, and kids in danger!
