Since the first comic appeared there have been ongoing spin-offs created, and to this day over 400 issues of X-Men comics exist each with an abundance of volumes.

From the genuine chemistry shared between James McAvoy and Michael Fassbdner, whom play Charles and Erik respectively, to the humor and power that Jennifer Lawrence adds to her character
