Star Trek and X-Men were a huge part of my childhood and teen years as well, so I 100% get where you're coming from.

Only tangentially related, I really do wish Marvel would take a back to basics approach with the X-Men so I could get into them again. I know a lot of people love the Krokoa era, and I'm happy they have it, but for me it is too dense and too far removed from what I grew up with for me to be able to penetrate. I know they've got an upcoming sea change happening, so maybe then.
