Uncanny Treks: X-Men Grand Design #1-2 (2017, Comic)

Ed Piskor eats the '60s for breakfast. Bob and Matt start the Grand Design trilogy with Piskor's 2017 first volume, compressing the original Lee-Kirby-Thomas X-Men — every Sentinel, every Magneto scheme, all the melodrama — into two dense, gloriously grotty issues. It's X-Men history as underground comix, footnotes and all. Matt admires the scholarship; Bob just likes watching the Silver Age get weirder. Next: the All-New era.
