A trio of short stories – including a Human Target tale by the winning team of Len Wein, Neal Adams and Dick Giordano – all take a backseat to a subtle-but-iconic Nick Cardy cover.
READKitty Pryde and Storm – who is trapped in the White Queen’s body – race to save the X-Men from the Hellfire Club. This one features a convoluted plot from Chris Claremont and solid art from guest artist Bob McLeod.
READKitty Pryde must transfer to Emma Frost’s academy; the X-Men are attacked by Sentinels that are under Hellfire Club control. A real mixed bag of an issue from Chris Claremont and fill-in artists James Sherman, Joe Rubinstein and Bob McLeod.
READWhen the Badoon subjugate Arkon’s world and kidnap three-fourths of the Fantastic Four, it’s the X-Men to the rescue. A solid annual offering from the creative team of Chris Claremont and Brent Anderson and Bob McLeod.
READFrom within the Bermuda Triangle, Magneto delivers an ultimatum to humanity and the X-Men are literally powerless to stop him. Marvel’s master of magnetism takes centerstage in what proves to be the best issue so far of Chris Claremont and Dave Cockrum’s second X-Men stint.
READThe X-Men travel to Magneto’s supposedly abandoned Antarctic lair and find themselves battling its keeper … Garokk, the Petrified Man! Another solid-though-not-spectacular issue from the regular X-team of Chris Claremont, Dave Cockrum and Joe Rubinstein.
READRom and two human allies take refuge in a deserted house – a house possessed by an other-dimensional terror! This odd outing from the creative team of Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema offers more “What?!” than wonder.
READRom battles human-turned-spaceknight Firefall while potential love-interest Brandy Clark tries to escape from Dire Wraiths. A solid-but-not-spectacular outing from the regular Rom creative team of Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema.
READRom continues to search out Dire Wraiths on Earth – and uncovers a plot to free his mortal enemies from Limbo! Despite a new character who is a bit unbelievable, this third issue from the team of Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema is another solid offering.
READRom continues to find Dire Wraiths embedded throughout West Virginia – including those working on a lethal laser project. Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema deliver a solid second issue, but one that lacks the punch of this series’ strong debut.
