American Comics Update: The Good Doctor Collection: The Last of John Byrne on X-Men
*Marvel: After more than 3 years, the award-winning run of Chris Claremont and John Byrne on X-Men, one of the best-loved periods for Marvel’s Merry Mutants, came to an end in 1981 with issue #143. From the Good Doctor Collection this week, we have the final issue in that run plus three of the issues leading up to it following the death of Phoenix in issue #137. Cyclops leaves team in #138; Kitty Pryde joins in #139, as Alpha Flight make a return appearance; it’s all against the Wendigo in #140 and in #143, Byrne wraps up his tenure as Kitty encounters a very Alien threat.
