Only four issues, so short, but it was a favourite for awhile.
If you want me to catch you up on X-Men, here goes:

They jacked up the price of the book by calling it Deluxe to $2, then went upwards from that. More angst, more 'no, he didn't really die' and more stuff like that. All subplots that were interesting were dropped and eventually Magneto had his brain sucked out by Xavier, who then developed a Tyler Durden personality called Onslaught which Marvel used to destroy all of their titles above issue #100 because 'all kids are too stupid and won't get involved because of the BACKSTORY.' Then 1996 came around and that's when Marvel died.

Bitterness aside, I just got the whole run of Avengers West Coast for under $10. If you dig the early '90s comicwise now is the time to get them very cheap on Ebay.
