History ComicBook / AmazingXMen

Amazing X-Men was first started by Jason Aaron in 2013, then after the first arc, Christoper Yost took over writing duties. The team is also notable for featuring [[Comicbook/NewWarriors Firestar]] as a first-time X-Man.

No relation to the ''The Amazing Comicbook/SpiderMan'', though he does drop in to visit his [[WesternAnimation/SpiderManAndHisAmazingFriends amazing friends]].

!!Examples:

* NaiveNewcomer: Firestar, who despite her previous heroics with The Comicbook/NewWarriors and Comicbook/TheAvengers, isn't prepared for the X-Men's patented brand of weirdness.

* [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Woman]]: Firestar perceives herself as this, considering the X-Men can't even go grocery shopping without weirdness finding them.

''Amazing X-Men'', launched in 2013, is an X-Men series that focuses on grandiose, larger-than-life storylines with the teachers of the Jean Grey School. To touch on how big the series' storylines are, the opening arc brought a mutant into the X-Men family who has never been before, and brought old fan favorite Nightcrawler BackFromTheDead from Heaven and the X-Men descended into Hell to fight Nightcrawler's father and he was in command of a pirate ship full of demons.

* LoveTriangle: As of issue 4, no direct indication. But presumable as Kurt's romantic feelings toward Storm have already been confessed. As of the beginning of the series, Storm was romantically entangled with Logan, who considers Kurt his best friend. The TriangRelations were eventually resolved by [[spoiler: the death of Wolverine]].

* BigDamnHeroes: The X-Men's plane has crashed. ComicBook/{{Northstar}} is on his back, bloody, with a frightened child in his arms. There is a viral spread of Wendigo overtaking Canada and closing in on the X-Men. The only two major spellworkers on the North American continent are out of commission or out of reach. And then Alpha Flight shows up.

* TheReveal: The first arc elaborates what the Bamfs on campus really are after an [[{{ComicBook/WolverineAndTheXMen}} alien xenobiologist]] said they're not the same as the ones before. They're actually lowly demon hybrids resembling toothed maggots, abandoned to fend for themselves in Hell before being found by Azazel, who used his BloodMagic to bond with them, shaping them into his image. Kurt later found one of these red ones, tamed it and [[DealWithTheDevil sold his soul]] to make a new bond with them (turning them blue in the process), so they could serve him in stopping his father and also be resurrected. He sent some to the campus to build a device to bring some X-Men over for assistance.

** Thor thought by their appearance and smug demeanor that the Brainier twins were elves. In the Alpha Flight title, an arc showed they had elf heritage before it that was revealed as a trick by Loki.

* Rockslide, who is pretty much made of rock.

* EscapeArtist: Storm. In issue #2, Azazael's pirate crew complains that they can't keep her tied up because she just keeps getting loose.

* MagneticPlotDevice: The Crimson gem of Cyttorak. It calls to people who have known it before and/or who hunger for power.

** The blue Bamfs seem only capable of saying Bamf as an all purpose word. But they have learned the english word "Whiskey" courtesy of Wolverine.

* {{Pirate}}: Azazael and Nightcrawler literally captaining pirate-type vessels that fly through the afterlife.

* BigDamnHeroes: The X-Men's plane has crashed. ComicBook/Northstar is on his back, bloody, with a frightened child in his arms. There is a viral spread of Wendigo overtaking Canada and closing in on the X-Men. The only two major spellworkers on the North American continent are out of commission or out of reach. And then Alpha Flight shows up.

* NeverSayDie: Averted. Kurt himself is quick to say he's still dead (since his friends are visiting him in the afterlife).

* DishingOutDirt: Rockslide, who is pretty much made of rock.

* ZombieApocalypse: The "World War Wendigo" arc is pretty much textbook Zombie uprising, except with cursed Canadian cannibal monsters.

* TheAtoner: Colossus, who after having spent time as the Juggernaut and as one of the Phoenix Five, is only technically welcome in the house because he's a long term X-Man. Team leader Storm tells him flat out that between his lack of anger management skills and his poor decisions, he has proven himself untrustworthy.

* BigDamnHeroes: The X-Men's plane has crashed. Northstar is on his back, bloody, with a frightened child in his arms. There is a viral spread of Wendigo overtaking Canada and closing in on the X-Men. The only two major spellworkers on the North American continent are out of commission or out of reach. And then Alpha Flight shows up.

* BadassFamily: Northstar and Aurora
** BrotherSisterTeam: The above mutant duo, when working together -- which is rare, as Northstar is mostly an undocumented immigrant into the United States these days.

* MythologyGag: Nightcrawler finds Mystique in a blonde human form posing as a waitress. In the First Class movie her regular human form was blonde and she was studying to be a waitress.

Yeah, SoCoolItsAwesome is the mantra of this series.

Ever thought that ComicBook/XMen, the Marvel franchise with strange mutants with weird powers, complete with FantasticRacism and {{Love Dodecahedron}}s, with of a touch of both SpaceOpera and SoapOpera could stand to be a little more epic?.
