The X-Men are one of the most iconic teams in the Marvel Universe. They are feared and hated by average humans, the government and even other super heroes alike. Amid an ever increasing hostile environment they continue their fight against evil and for justice and mutant rights. The story arcs of this comic are some of the richest Marvel has ever produced. Join this panel as we explore the relationship between various X-Men story lines and different social movements in the US. Presented by: the Graphic Novel Action Team of the Houston Public Library
