Reply to comment by FrankDrakman in TIL Stan Lee made the X-Men mutants because he didn't want to come up with a reason for their super powers, instead they were just born with them. Additionally the 1963 comic was initially a flop until the 1975 reboot by Len Wein and Dave Cockrum. by jamescookenotthatone
I vaguely recall a documentary where Stan said something to the effect of he felt like making them all mutants felt like a cop-out but he couldn't feesibly come up with unique origin stories for that many characters
