The X-Men join the celebration of the House of Ideas’ 80th anniversary with the latest issue of the era-spanning MARVEL TALES! This anthology shines a spotlight on fan-favorite characters, features timeless stories and highlights some of Marvel’s most impressive talent from the past eight decades. First, Alex Summers suits up as the man called Havok in X-MEN (1963) #58 — a classic tale of the original X-Men by the legendary team of Roy Thomas and Neal Adams! Then, New Mutants’ Sunspot and Warlock join a ragtag group of teen heroes — plus the mutant lobsters known as Bill and Don — in FALLEN ANGELS #2 by classic creators Jo Duffy and Kerry Gammill! And finally, Storm powerfully reasserts herself as the captured X-Men face execution in Genosha in UNCANNY X-MEN (1981) #272 by the superstar team of Chris Claremont and Jim Lee!

Comic Grading Guide
Near Mint (NM): Nearly flawless, boasting vivid colors, a glossy sheen, and an immaculate appearance. The book should rest perfectly flat.
Very Fine (VF): Still sharp in appearance, with vibrant colors and gloss. It may exhibit a few minor stress marks on the spine or outer edge, with no creasing allowed.
Fine (F): Maintains its allure but may display more imperfections compared to VF. This could entail 4 or 5 stress lines, slight corner creases, minor edge tears, or general edge wear. No tape, substantial tears, or notable cover damage permitted.
Very Good (VG): A well-handled, read copy with visible wear on the spine and edges. Expect noticeable creasing on the cover and the possibility of a tear. A small piece of tape on or inside the cover is acceptable. Light soiling or staining may be present, and the spine might exhibit a slight roll.
Good (G): Resembles VG but with more frequent or severe blemishes. It might have a piece missing (though not too large) from the front or back cover.
Fair (F): Well-worn yet complete, potentially adorned with tape on the cover, tears, missing cover sections, staining, soiling, and substantial wear.
Poor (P): A heavily battered or incomplete copy, possibly missing large sections from the cover or lacking a back cover.
