In the 1990s, for a few years, the X-Men became one of the most popular things in pop culture, dominating TV, stores, and even our cereal boxes. But how? It was the confluence of several major forces working in unison: the comic speculators market pushing X-Men to record breaking sale, the ambition of Margaret Loesch to make a Saturday morning TV show that appealed to a wider demographic, and a scrappy little toy company called Toy Biz looking to sell a lot of plastic to kids. These forces worked together to propel X-Men to mainstream superstardom.
