Every X-Men Team - Ranked From Worst To Best

10. Fallen Angels

New Mutants Dawn of X
Marvel Comics

The simplest way of describing the Fallen Angels is as the New Mutants, but edgier.

The incident that prompts the original group's formation is Sunspot throwing Cannonball into a tree, yet the first issue's cover is comparable to the dramatic image of Miles Morales murdering Captain America on that infamous Civil War II cover - a sense of hyperbole that continues within the actual pages of the book.

The more recent iteration sees X-23, Psylocke, the younger version of Cable, and others on a 'quest for vengeance', continuing the tradition of edginess.

The thing is, the X-Men already have an edgy offshoot team, one that has been far better established, had more interesting storylines, and better rosters - it's called X-Force. X-23's being a member of the Fallen Angels is the only thing that gives it any points, really.
