X-Men are one of the most popular superhero bands in the reign of comic-dom and the mind 90's is considered as the time when too many X-Titles were available out there. During "The Phalanx Covenant" crossover event, writer Scott Lobdell (The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, Alpha Flight) and artist superstar Chris Bachalo (Amazing Spider-Man, Dark Reign – The Sinister Spider-Man) came up with the idea of a new spin-off series of the popular Uncanny X-Men team, thus creating the new monthly comic series Generation X.

The series started publication from Marvel Comics in 1994 and then concluded its run with issue #75 in 2001. It was one of the top order comic cool on that time. Chris Bachalo did many of the issues from its start and it is always a delight to enjoy his artwork.
