*Marvel: X-Men #17 and #18 was a two-part story, among my favourites that I remember reading when they came out. The red and black cover to #17 was the first I ever remember seeing in that duo-tone effect, and the last full page spread of the story, where it is revealed that the Big Bad is Magneto, despite hardly being a surprise, was very memorable as he confronts Jean Grey’s parents at the school: (‘I? I am power! Men call me — Magneto!), with Prof X and all the X-Men already subdued. All that is except Iceman, who is left to take on Magneto alone in the following issue. I can remember being very impatient for #18 to come out. Two nice mid-grade copies available this week.
