Astonishing X-Men by Joss Whedon is amazing.
The first arc, Gifted, had a lot that was taken from it for the third X-Men movie, but don't let that scare you away. The comic itself is a lot better. You may need to know some comic stuff about the X-Men and about Marvel in order to understand everything, but for the most part, it is its own stand-alone stories. Hulu has right now the first 4 issues of Gifted available to view as part of a Marvel Motion Comic, adapted by Neal Adams, with John Cassaday's help, into an animated series. I highly recommend the comics, but the motion comic isn't that bad. The faces and their motion can be a little disconcerting, but other than that, it is great.

aww sry about that I meant that last comment in a cool HP ref way. Anyways thanks for posting this it was cool to watch.
Sorry, I've had some spambots posting, and the comment was incomprehensible.
Anyway, the entire story arc is up on Hulu now.
I recommend the rest of the series too. Joss is a great writer, John is a great artist, and the series itself is amazing.
Sorry again.
