Can you read this without all 22 parts? Or are all these issues essential?

The three X of Swords, Excalibur, Cable, and X-Men issues are what I believe to be the most important ones.

>Excalibur #12
>X-Men #12
>X of Swords: Creation #1
>Wolverine #6
>Cable #5
>Excalibur #13
>X-Men #13
>X of Swords: Stasis #1
>X-Men #14
>Excalibur #14
>Wolverine #7
>Cable #6
>X-Men #15
>Excalibur #15
>X of Swords: Destruction #1
Why Cable? I understand the other two

yeah you gotta read it all actually. hellions is maybe the least connected to the main plot but also it's a good book so read it

Cable's sword is a plot device relevant to the ending of the event.

I'd say the only book you can really just skip is Hellions, but it's one of the best Marvel books right now imo so no harm in reading it.

I skipped out on X of Swords because I wasn't reading Excalibur. Do I need to like, go back and read it, or is there a tl;dr that can give me the gist of it?

I could also use a general reading order so I can catch up with Reign of X. I'm sorry to ask for something so spoonfeedy.

How are they ever gonna collect this entire run?

you can realistically skip the preamble issues of getting the swords (they're more character pieces), X-factor (dying in otherworld is bad yo), and Hellions (sinister makes an enemy with similar tastes who will come back against him)

Cable because it introduces elements that are factors in the finale and explains what Jean and Scott are planning during the event

Saturnyne really wants to fuck Brian Braddock.
Apocalypse was playing 3D chess with Excalibur and Otherworld to bridge the gap to Arrako

Am I the only one who finds it weird how much this run shits on captain britain?

Sorry, I meant, "What is the reading order for the storyline following X of Swords, and can I skip it?"

How essential is X-Force to the Wolverine ongoing btw?

here someone just finished up a catch up of ALL of hicks-men

Oh rad, thanks.

they don't cross much beyond mentions of other things he's doing

Nah, Tini is a mediocre writer with the characters flip flopping on motivations and act like idiots constantly.

I don't know too much about Captain Britain. What is the basic rundown on Otherworld and Roma?

Doesn't really shit on CB, it just terribly missues him and most of his lore.

How are you guys collecting these series? Seems wonky.

Why aren't the ongoing 12 issue deluxe editions?

well it looks like most of this started at the 12th issue which would stop them from making it that easy to do the 12 issue thing. Honestly are they doing mixed trades for reading this in order or no?

Swords of X will be 2 TPB at 12 issues each

makes sense, what about the rest of the runs? Most of the books don't have TO much that cross over but starting x-force with killing xavier did change affect the stories in the other books for that amount of time

Though can we get an F for my nigga rockslide? I loved that rocky dude

There's Dawn of X, which collects 1 issue of everything that's out that week. So, Dawn of X Volume 16 has X-Men 12, etc.

The other runs are collected in 6 issues of their own runs etc

Kinda half and half. The sword collecting part is pretty standalone, you don't need to read all of it. The actual tournament can get hard to follow if you don't read it all, though.

The entire thing is getting collected in a hardcover in a couple of months actually

I'm making a giant omnibus of the Dawn Of X-era on my computer using single issues. It's currently at 1200+ pages.

It's even coming out next month
