The X-Men are a superhero team appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer/editor Stan Lee and artist/co-plotter Jack Kirby, the team first appeared in The X-Men #1 (September 1963). Although initially canceled in 1970 due to low sales, following its 1975 revival and subsequent direction under writer Chris Claremont, it became one of Marvel's most recognizable and successful franchises. They have appeared in numerous books, television shows, 20th Century Fox's X-Men films, and video games. The X-Men title may refer to the superhero team itself, the eponymous comic series, or the broader franchise including various solo titles and team books such as the New Mutants, Excalibur, and X-Force.

In the Marvel Universe, mutants are humans who are born with a genetic trait called the X-gene which grants them natural superhuman abilities, generally manifesting during puberty. Due to their differences from the majority of humanity, mutants are subject to prejudice and discrimination; many X-Men stories feature social commentary on bigotry, justice, and other political themes. The X-Men have fought against a variety of enemies, including villainous mutants, human bigots, supervillains, mystical threats, extraterrestrials, and malevolent artificial intelligence. In most iterations of the team, they are led by their founder Charles "Professor X" Xavier, a powerful telepath who runs a school for mutant children out of his mansion in Westchester, New York, which secretly is also the headquarters of the X-Men. Their stories have frequently involved Magneto, a powerful mutant with control over magnetic fields, who is depicted as an old friend of and foil to Xavier, variously acting as an adversary or as an ally.

Early X-Men issues introduced the original team composed of Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Beast, Angel, and Iceman, along with their archenemy Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants featuring Mastermind, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, and Toad. The comic focused on a common human theme of good versus evil and later included storylines and themes about prejudice and racism, all of which have persisted throughout the series in one form or another. The evil side in the fight was shown in human form and under some sympathetic beginnings via Magneto, a character who was later revealed to have survived Nazi concentration camps only to pursue a hatred for normal humanity. His key followers, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, were Romani. Only one new member of the X-Men was added, Mimic/Calvin Rankin, but soon left due to his temporary loss of power.

The title lagged in sales behind Marvel's other comic franchises. In 1969, writer Roy Thomas and illustrator Neal Adams rejuvenated the comic book and gave regular roles to two recently introduced characters: Alex "Havok" Summers (Cyclops' brother, who had been introduced by Roy Thomas before Adams began work on the comic) and Lorna Dane, later called Polaris (created by Arnold Drake and Jim Steranko). However, these later X-Men issues failed to attract sales and Marvel stopped producing new stories with issue #66 (March 1970), later reprinting a number of the older comics as issues #67–93.

Wesley Snipes made Marvel cool as hell in the 90s. That dude oozes cool.

The cheers in the cinema when Blade walked out of the shadows. 👊👊👊

Deadpool is filled with 90’s nostalgia, and both Blade and Wesley Snipes are pure 90’s nostalgia.

I almost cried when Blade came onto screen. One of my fathers favorite movies. He passed in '08

[emmanuelp]

Man, the whole theater went wild when the only blade walked out. One of my favorite movies and was so excited

[NegG]

I always loved Wesley Snipes. It's good to see him getting some action.

[LRobertoG]

Wesley is criminally underrated as an actor. Dude is an unicorn. He is the whole package !!

[JonSnowIII]

Dude, the theatre went wild when he appeared on screen. It was clear that there were a good amount of Blade fans.

[spencer]

Personally I would love to see wesley come back as blade as he's awesome

[carlosoneal]

He needs to come back and make more movies. He’s a good actor. Would love to see Wesley Snipes again playing more action movies. He’s a hit.

[Mike_Jones]

That was one of the best decisions of that movie. Renolds was impeccably correct to have Snipes come back for Blade. I think every fan of all these movies owes him a debt of gratitude for this move.

[setsuna]

The aura that this man has....is insane as Blade. He's truly the godfather of Marvel, and there's only ONE BLADE!

[rulev]

Snipes getting a call he was surprised about after single handedly reviving a franchise is crazy work .. underappreciated

[t.carter]

Listening to Wesley speak.. He is a wise and humble human.
