I know that some people like the whole Utopia island schtick, but I have always like the X-Men the best when they lived in Westchester. I absolutely hated it when they lived in the Austalian outback.

From the Uncanny X-Men wiki

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_X-Men#1986


The Fall of the Mutants storyline began as the X-Men encounter Freedom Force, who are under orders to arrest the X-Men for refusing to comply with the Mutant Registration Act, and a fight ensues. Freedom Force's mutant precog Destiny has a vision: everyone inside a particular Dallas skyscraper at dawn will be dead. Calling a temporary truce, they turn to restoring order to the chaos engulfing the city. Many of the events are broadcast on television by reporter Neal Conan and cameraman Manoli Wetherell, who accompany the X-Men and Freedom Force. Storm and Forge meanwhile find themselves in a pristine, natural world all to themselves. Storm spends most of the year in solitude until she is finally ready to make her peace with him. Forge uses his shaman magic in conjunction with her returned lightning powers to open a portal back to Dallas. The Adversary, the creature responsible for the chaos they now found themselves in, is released. As Storm and Forge join the battle, it quickly becomes apparent that the Adversary cannot be defeated, and the only way to be rid of him is to seal him away forever. As foreseen by Destiny, the X-Men die. However, the goddess Roma returns them all to life. She gives them the Siege Perilous, telling them they could use it to 'reset' time should they be discovered.

Starting their new lives in the Australian Outback after defeating the cybernetic team known as the Reavers, they meet the Aborigine known as Gateway who is able to teleport the team anywhere in the world. As they began to get used to life away from Salem Center and the X-Mansion, they were faced with the return of the Brood, who were infecting a nearby town with their hatchling, and S'ym, who would be instrumental in the Inferno storyline the following year. The X-Men were faced with their biggest challenge against the island nation of Genosha, which was located off the east coast of Africa, to the north of Madagascar, and boasted a high standard of living, an excellent economy, and freedom from the political and racial turmoil that characterized neighboring nations. However, Genosha's prosperity was built upon the enslavement of its mutant population. Mutants in Genosha were the property of the state and children who were positively identified with the mutant gene were put through a process developed by David Moreau, commonly known as the Genegineer.

I just hated the composition of the team with Longshot, Pyslocke, Dazzler, Havok, etc.... Also in my opinion the X-Men should always live in Westchester...to have them live anywhere else just does not feel right. To take the X-Men out of Westchester is like taking the Fantastic Four out of the Baxter Building (Or whatever their building is called these days) or like taking Batman out of Wayne Manor/the Batcave. The X-Mansion in Westchester is part of the X-Men mythos...it is where they belong.

It is ok, but I cannot wait for the X-Men to get back to Westchester.

Wonder if the mansion will be rebuild or they have to rebuild it.
I did like in X-men Evolution they had to life in the War Room bunkers and such until the mansion was rebuild. I think in Young X-men they had bunkers didn't they?
