Marvel Comics Library. X-Men. Vol. 1. 1963–1966 – Limited XXL Collection with 21 Restored Original Editions in a Clamshell Box
The birth of the X-Men in a luxuriously designed volume, featuring historical editions and essays by Chris Claremont and Fabian Nicieza
This luxuriously presented limited edition collection showcases the first 21 original X-Men stories from 1963 to 1966. Reproduced in XXL format, the volume contains lovingly restored editions featuring the debuts of legendary characters like Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast, Iceman, Angel, and their mentor, Professor X.
Mutants with superhuman abilities fight against prejudice, threats, and their own insecurities – a defining narrative that has moved generations. The detailed facsimiles of the original issues bring the golden age of the X-Men back to life. Thanks to modern retouching, the pages look as if they just came off the printing press of the 1960s.
The project was conceived by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, two icons of comic book history. Lee as a creative visionary and storyteller, Kirby as a style-defining illustrator with a sense of dynamism and drama. Together they created a team that became one of the most successful franchises in the Marvel Universe.
