Essential X-Men Essential X-Men Essential X-Men is a 76-page comic book published by Panini Comics UK, as part of their Collectors' Edition range. Beginning in 1995, the title reprints Marvel US's range of X-Men comics; three per issue. The comic is produced on higher quality paper than the US originals, and the covers are composed of card, which helps to preserve the comic. Also unlike the US originals, advertisements are kept to a minimum, with most simply promoting the other comics in the Collectors' Edition range or Marvel DVDs or video games. The comics it reprints are generally about two years behind
World War Hulk: X-Men tries to stop the Hulk, but is easily thrown aside into the mansion's grave yard. Mercury then reasons with the Hulk, telling him about the events of M-Day and saying that they understand his hurt and anger on the basis of their own suffering as mutants. Hulk relents and leaves without the Professor, reasoning that Xavier himself is in his own hell based on his own mistakes and that the X-Men have already suffered too much already. While the X-Men tend to the wounded, Cyclops finally forgives Professor X for not telling him about Vulcan and Juggernaut takes his leave
