So I just finished watching Wolverine and the X-Men, and I want to start reading the comics.
I want to get the full original story for the most part, but I don't really feel like reading 40+ years worth of comics. Not to mention that I hate the artwork in old comic books.
There seems to be two X-Men comic series' that are pretty much be just generic "The X-Men", and not some crazy spin-off series like "Wolverine vs The Marvel Zombies" or "Magneto: A Day In The Life Of A Hasidic Jew, A Documentary".
I pretty much already know the answer to this, but I have to ask anyway:
Do I really need to start off with the 1963 comic series (currently called "The Uncanny X-Men" I think), or can I just take it from the 1991 series (whatever that one's called now)?
