*Marvel: X-Men #5 marked the very swift return of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (now, there’s a slick bit of nominative determinism for you), following their debut in the previous issue. The Scarlet Witch however was still suffering from the same bout of colour blindness that afflicted her on the cover of #4, where she was also dressed in emerald. You’d have thought that the clue was in her name… Anyway, a merry romp ensues between Prof X’s mutant band and Magneto’s misfits. This is a lower-graded cents copy, with a couple of small chips out of the spine and edges, and a fair amount of both colour breaking and non-colour breaking creasing, but the colours are reasonably bright, the staples firm at spine and centrefold and the cover image unmarked. Pages are a reasonable creamy colour.
