Hey your reading order is pretty awesome. It’s what I’ve been looking for, chronological reading order. But you’re missing quite a few books like Wolverine Origins, New Warriors, Astonishing X-Men, Agents of Atlas, Blade, Exiles, Excalivur, Ghost Rider: Heaven’s on fire, Heroes for Hire, X-Factor, Penance : Relentles and X-Men: Die by the sword.
I know its a lot lol but I’m a completionist. I’m probably missing a few for this time period.
Believe me, I want to include everything I can, but it’s just such a big task, and I can only work on it in my spare time.
