    My first new X-Men comic off the rack was during the Fall of the Mutants.  Mohawk Storm era.

    However, my X-Men are Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Storm, Colossus and Cyclops.

    My X-Men are the same as Joe's with Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, and Cyclops.

    Even though as each year goes by I find myself closer and closer to the original team and stories.  Really some amazing stuff.

    #167 in 1982 or thereabouts.  My first mutant book was actually New Mutants #1. 

    So... Cyclops, Colossus, Storm, Nightcrawler, Kitty, Wolverine, and (as far as I knew at the time) Binary.

    My first encounter with the X-Men was in Stan Lee's SON OF ORIGINS OF
    MARVEL COMICS, so the first X-Men I knew were Prof. X, Cyclops, Marvel
    Girl, Iceman, Angel, and Beast.

    However, the "all-new, all-different" X-Men were the mutant super-team
    that really got to me--with X-Men #129, so we're talking Prof. X, Cyclops,
    Phoenix, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Storm, Colossus, and Kitty Pryde (not yet
    an X-Man, but there she was).

    Steven,
    Uncanny X-Men#153 is one of my favorite issues.

    Jason and I are totally in sync (en sink?) on this one.  In fact, I desperately need an original X-Men vs Sauron commission...

    I first encountered the X-Men with the new team's guest shot in Amazing Spider-Man #161, and then shortly after that with the All New All Different X-Men #101 and #103. The department store Zayre began selling recent Marvel back issues in 3 packs during the 70's and those were some of my first comics. The first X-Men I bought at the newsstand was #109. That era's line-up is the X-Men to me.

    This is a bit of a twofold answer.  Growing up in the late 70s/early 80s, I learned a lot about superheroes from my father who told me about the comics he read growing up.  So I knew only the original X-Men.

    The first time I encountered them in a comic book was Secret Wars, though, so only Cyclops and Professor X seemed familiar.  I was not quite eight years old.

    So "my" X-Men were Cyclops, Professor X (who could walk), Colossus, Nightcrawler, Rogue, Storm, and Wolverine.  They seemed to have a pet dragon named Lockheed and Colossus had a girlfriend back home named Kitty.  But I knew these weren't the "real" X-Men.

    The first X-Men story I read was the origin in SONS OF ORIGINS OF MARVEL COMICS published by Fireside Books around 1979. I believe it was that volume and not the first.

    The Beast sans fur was my favorite immediately, with Iceman or "Snowman" as the case was then, close second.

    Didn't really become an X-Men "fan" until the end of JB's art run, and like many I was Wolverine this and Wolverine that for a few years.
