That Would Make A Great... "Apocalypse: The Twelve" Edition

     Apocalypse the 12 is the first X-men crossover of the 21st century. It started in Uncanny X-men 376, published in January of 2000. It involved Apocalypse bringing together 12 mutants in an attempt to gain the perfect balance of powers so that he may transfer his essence into one of them. The purpose of this scheme was to allow him to continue his legacy in a new and powerful body. The story's main impact was on Cyclops. This was the first step toward changing Cyclops' character into the revolutionary that he is today. Apocalypse possesses his body (contrary to his plan), and thus affects Cyclops at his core bringing about a new perspective that slowly erods his old ideals and eventually gives character more of a rough edge.

That Would Make A Great... "X-men: The End" Edition

     I finally read the 2005-2006, 3 book (18 issue) miniseries X-men: The End.  It was written by one of the central X-men storytellers of the last 20+ years, Chris Claremont.  It tells the tale of the X-men (the version of the team in the early 2000s) 15 years in the future in which all sorts of mind-blowing events take place.  I won't go too far into the details, but its safe to say that if you haven't read it, you're in for a roller coaster ride of X-madness!

     Of course there was quite a bit of eye candy and interesting character designs that would serve as great inspiration for some fantastic statues.  The following are just a few images that I gleaned from the various issues which were standout candidates.  It goes without saying that there was way more potential than what you see here in those fantastic books.
