The only problem with B&N is the selection isn't the best - but they do have all of the X-Factors and Cable and Deadpool. I ended up getting X Force and Cable from Amazon, and that was okay price wise, but it seems I can probably do better.

We have a comic book store by my house, that seems pretty great, and I think if I go to getting them on a by issue basis, I would probably go there. That's where I've been getting my SWORDs. It's not so much the money as just with B&N I've been getting all these cards and coupons. Also, with them I got the Utopia hardbound for $21! I love a good deal. :-) Also, it helps justify the gluttony I'm going through catching up and getting everything I want.

I grabbed the first X-Men First Class and really liked it - that is a good one. I will also add the Wolverine First Class to my list.

Is Legacy good? That was probably my least favorite part of Utopia. I liked the Dark Avengers. Hawkeye seems very cool.

Astonishing X-Men is what got me into all of this. :-) Andy and I grabbed it on a whim at B&N one day. And thus began my new obsession. Last year I read the complete works of Georgette Heyer (almost, I'm like 85% done - some I can't find in print), this year it's X-Men comics. :-)

Thanks for all the recs!
