The First X-Men

This is the true story of mutants coming together & fighting against their oppression for as nice as it is to see some of these mutants come together this story is just missing something.  This is really a Wolverine & Sabertooth story more than anything else I really liked the how Victor Creed was handled in this mini-series because it gave him a reason for everything that comes after it grounded him.  I liked how Logan came up with this idea before he even met Xavier he just didn't know how to implement it.  This mini did establish that the mutant problem had champions before Professor X & Magneto but it was not really well thought out.  What I didn't like about this mini-series is that other than the two main characters or already established characters in the X-Men mythos the rest of the cast is not very well established.  Most of the characters on Logan & Creeds team are just just as two dimensional as they were at the start of the story.  Is this essential to understanding the X-Men no if you like Wolverine & Sabertooth pick this up.
