The late Dave Cockrum created the X-Men as we know them. That’s all there is to it. To advertise the success of his all-new, all-different X-Men, Marvel put out this house ad, targeting the lone Silver Age X-Men fan who hadn’t been reading the book.

Writer Peter Milligan and artist Mike Allred reinvented X-Force in 2001 with a run that was later renamed as, and always referred to as, X-STATIX.
