X-Men: Days of Future Past - 1st Appearances

If you are at all like me, you are counting the days until May 23, 2014 in anticipation of X-Men: Days of Future Past.  As I did previously for X-Men: First Class which you can find here, I put together a 1st appearance list for all of the characters that we know about so far. There is one other that should probably be on this list, but I'll wait until the movie comes out in case anyone is avoiding the spoilers.  Also worth noting is that the story is based on Uncanny X-Men #141 and #142.



The (Uncanny) X-Men #1:  1st Appearance of Professor Xavier, Magneto, Beast, Iceman

The (Uncanny) X-Men #4:  1st Appearance of Quicksilver

The (Uncanny) X-Men #14:  1st Appearance of Bolivar Trask

The (Uncanny) X-Men #54:  1st Appearance of Havok

The Incredible Hulk #180:  1st Cameo of Wolverine

The Incredible Hulk #181:  1st Full Appearance of Wolverine

Giant Size X-Men #1:  1st Appearance of Storm, Colossus

Ms. Marvel #16 - 18:  1st Appearance of Mystique.  This one is tough to judge. Mystique cameos in #16, disguises herself as Nick Fury in #17, and makes her first full appearance as Mystique in #18.

The (Uncanny) X-Men #129:  1st Appearance of Kitty Pryde

Avengers Annual #10:  1st Appearance of Rogue

Marvel Graphic Novel #4 (The New Mutants):  1st Appearance of Sunspot

Marvel Graphic Novel #5 (God Loves, Man Kills):  1st Appearance of William Stryker

New Mutants #16:  1st Appearance of Warpath

Uncanny X-Men #282:  1st Appearance of Bishop

Uncanny X-Men #317:  1st Appearance of Blink

I knew I'd have to post something like this sooner or later.  I was waiting to put this together a little closer to the movie release date.  However, I've already noticed a few people have made it to my site searching for comic book issues related to the movie.  Well, so far the only thing I can come up with is a list of first appearances for the characters that will be in the movie.  It's virtually impossible to come up with a list of issues relating to events in the story.  This story is in it's own continuity.  It's not Marvel 616 and I'm guessing that when Marvel gets the film rights back that it won't be Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) either.  This story is...Fox X-Men Universe.  I think I just coined that term.  We can abbreviate it FXU.  I'm sure all the fanboys that hate this movie will love it.  Feel free to use it.  You don't even have to pay me royalties.

Alright, on to the list of 1st appearances.  First, the bad news.  If you're trying to collect all of these comics in near mint condition it will cost you about $27,000.  The good news, about $26,000 of that amount is all in one book, The (Uncanny) X-Men #1.  You could likely pick up all the others for around $900 bucks or so.
