X-Men Solo Stories Trade Paperback Guide

Please gives me helpfulness votes!!!

Cable, Deadpool, Weapon X | Excalibur | Exiles | New Mutants, X-Force, X-Statix | New X-Men | Wolverine | X-Factor | X-Men Part I, Part II | X-Men Solo Stories

I was wondering how on earth I was going to fit all the Gambit trade paperbacks and the Rogue trade paperbacks and other limited solo series, into my X-Men Trade Paperback Guide.  And so the idea for this guide popped into my head.  These trade paperbacks will be in chronological order.  The year beside each trade paperback is the year that the first issue in the trade paperback was published.  They're there to give you some kind of an idea of the age of the issues.  With each trade paperback will be the issues included and the cover price.  Cable and Deadpool solo trade paperbacks can be found in my Cable, Deadpool, and Weapon X Trade Paperback Guide.  Likewise, any Wolverine trade paperback can be found in my Wolverine Trade Paperback Guide, unless the trade paperback is Wolverine teamed up with another person.  In that case it could be found either in this guide or in my Marvel Team-Up Trade Paperback Guide.  Some of these will include brief information on the trade paperbacks.  Now, enjoy!

Apocalypse

This trade paperback follows Apocalypse in ancient Egyptian times and tells of how he grew up.  It also includes his first appearance back from 1986.  I think the Rise of Apocalypse story serves as some kind of 10th anniversary of Apocalypse's first appearance, but I'm not too sure.

• X-Factor Vol. 1 #5-6, The Rise of Apocalypse #1-4

• Bishop #1-4
• Cover Price: $12.95

Captain Britain

Captain Britain, Psylocke's brother, is a UK superhero.  He started out in his own series by Chris Claremont and it was only published in the United Kingdom.  So because of that, the issues that I have included below and the prices for the trade paperbacks may not be correct, though I'm pretty sure they are...um...for the most part.
