Since I have lost ten years of X-Men comic history I was wondering what TPB's I should get to at least understand some of the past story arcs. I stopped with UC 275 or so. When I began reading again I went as far back as UC 400. I've heard some cool arcs came out between 275 and 400. I was wondering what TPB's I should pick up and if they have anything between issues 275 and 400 that are in print. Even non-UC's if you recommend them.
Any help would be grateful!

Wow.
At least, try to get the end of Claremont's first run ! (Unc 275-280 + X-men 1-3 by Claremont and Lee) There is a TPB for the Lee issues but I don't know its name. It's one of the best Magneto stories ever.
The Age of Apocalypse storyline is also a great read. Sort of a big "what if" story. Different TPBs exist, I think.
As for the rest, well...
Do you want us to sum up the important stories ?? If you do have questions, don't hesitate !

Yes. Please. All the story arcs that are a major importance to the X-Men. Like as you said Diablo, AOA for example. Even High Evolutionary-I think that was it:) Even back issues of say 3-4 issues if there are no TPB's just so I can read them and have the knowledge to respond in chat , on the board, etc...I don't want to be left out in the dark.
Any help you can give me.

Well, even if Northstar's Love doesn't desire a sum-up, I put in a request for a bit of summing... It's always helpful for someone like me, who is slowly working towards the middle of the series from both ends, hehe...

Biggest ones I can think of are
Fall of the mutants - basically the birth of Archangel
Inferno
Xtinction Agenda was pretty good.
There is a Jim Lee colleciton that isn't bad. Its the stuff with him and Claremont on "uncanny" before "X-Men" was started it covers the reinduction of Pyslocke and a bit of their Shiar adventure where the X-Men get Prof X back.... It's "X-Men Visionaries Jim Lee"
As for X-Men Next Dimension

Your info for today. Nightcrawler in 1989 was not a big hit. The comics back then anly cost 50 cents. Infact his first words in x-men was kill me if I cant be human. He also said fools they do not know what they do.:bow
