Mutant maassacre is great. Ive re read it twice recently and its so awesoms. It also is the story that first mentions Sabretooth's healing factor and is his first time being paired up against Wolverine
Not only was the Mutant Massacre great, it fed so many other story arcs, like Apocalypse, Death/Archangel, the Mister Sinister and Goblin Queen, etc. The Chris Claremont era of X-Men stories have always been by far my favorite.
Good video. This was a magnificent story/crossover. I am sure there was a Daredevil tie in to the Mutant Massacre story along with Thor and Power Pack. I always saw Colossus as a gentle giant so him killing was such a shock. We can't forget JRJ's amazing art. 80's X-Men was some of the best superhero comic books ever.

@@cavotiscomics3423 For American imports, I collected Silver Surfer, Hulk and Thor, Secret Wars was my fave, oh and Time Twisters by QC. British ones, 2000AD was good; Spider-man and Zoids and Transformers were my faves. Oink was good too. And TV comic.
I remember when this storyline came out - I was age 12 and a big X-Men fan. The writers crippled my favourite characters (Nightcrawler, Shadowcat, & Colossus), murdered supporting characters that I liked, made hopeful heroes into murderers, and obliterated the sense of fun the series had. It took over a year for me to get my favourite characters back - usually in other books like Excalibur. Although this was only 86, this storyline truly represents the shift to the 90's brutal sensibilities. That said, it was one Hell of a story and directly impacts the modern era of X-men.

Sabertooth from this moment on really started to grow as a character. And get some love from different writters.

His 80s run was incredible

JRJ's 80s art is my favorite. Daredevil had a tie in I had no idea.
Yeah. It was pretty much after and it was about Sabretooth hanging around the tunnels afterwards

I read this when it came out. I was never really a fan of the X-men, but this story was a stand out.
And which was your favorite comic series back during that time?

Yes to every thing you said there, and early Excalibur was a blast.
