Colleen is an approved by this Anon ship, though.

Just follow the link, that should take you to the Great X-Men Storytime folder. From there just pick whatever volume you're interested in, and inside each volume is their corresponding Uncanny issues and other folders containing the other series like New Mutants or X-Factor.

If you have any other problems just feel free to ask.

>>90484643
The actual timeline is X-Factor #24-26, then X-Men #225, New Mutants #59-60/X-Men #226-227, then New Mutants #61

The assault on Manhattan is referenced as the reason why no one is coming to Dallas TX to help the X-Men/Freedom Force (Avengers are being held in reserve in case X-Factor can't beat Apocalypse). Magik shows up in X-Men #225 to drop off Colossus then X-Men #226-227 and New Mutants #59-60 happening at the same time. New Mutants #61 basically is a coda for the entire thing as it has the New Mutants learning the X-Men "died" (though for spoiler reasons, as #61/227 were published the same month, they don't actually SEE the actual cause of death and just the explosion of Forge's penthouse, which was the cliffhanger from #226). X-Factor doesn't find out that the X-Men "died" until X-Factor #27.

He liked Apocalypse enough that he wanted to make Poccy the guy who gave Wolverine his adamantium skeleton, to the point that his only request/note given to BWS when BWS was writing Weapon X, was to not show who the mastermind behind the Weapon X project was due to him wanting to reveal it to be Apocalypse in the main X-Book.

As for Archangel, he liked it enough that he had Wolverine job to Warren, who under Claremont constantly reminded Wolverine that his new wings gave him the power to shut Wolverine's flapping mouth as opposed to being impotent and unable to do anything to shut Wolverine up except cry to Xavier and threaten to rage quit if Wolverine was not expelled from the team
