Spectacular cover by Neal Adams. Back in the late 1960's and all through the 1970's and 1980's, he pumped out hundreds of stunning covers for both Marvel and DC. |

I wonder if Marvel added "The Strangest Teens of All!" because they were competing with DC's the Teen Titans? |

I bought this book slabbed - a CGC Blue Label with an unverified signature. It looks like a legit Neal Adams signature to me. And it's a great-looking cover, too. |

This cover makes me think that most of them have been skipping their leg day. |

Another book I obtained thanks to my CBCS friends (thanks, Alex). Note that Angel's new costume is not depicted on the logo. |

Another great cover by Marie Severin (who also did covers for #65 and #67). This is the last new original X-Men story. Reprinted stories, some with new covers, start with #67. |

Here come the reprints. These were so difficult to find in decent shape. Since they are reprinted stories, I didn't buy many of them when I started working on my run back in the late 1970's and 1980's. Then to complete my run and bridge the gap between the old and new X-Men, I decided to pick them up. This proved to be extremely hard, and many of them are in lower grades than I would like. What makes it difficult too is that many of these reprints are selling for higher prices than their original versions. At least this issue has a new cover. |

This beautiful copy (and issue #71) came from the late great @conditionfreak. Walter, you are sadly missed my friend. |

Bobbie's blue boots are back in 68. Lol, now y'all got me to looking for them. I always liked the cover on 64 and 66 is definitely cool. The covers on the reprints are well done. That's a great run so far. I'm looking forward to seeing more. |

I really dislike the cover for #70. The original monochromatic red cover on #17 is much more dramatic. | ||

I'm glad they gave the reprints a different cover. | ||

Oh the woes of being a OCD completest! Im surprised you held out for as long as you did to tell you the truth Also a quick comment on Marie Severin, Who more the held her own in a field dominated by men. She was responsible for many classic silver age covers and is very under appreciated and yet her work does not take a back seat to any of her legendary peers of the time. At least in my opinion More outstanding looking books Ed! |

It was difficult for me to see all the detail on 17 with all the red but after seeing 70 I see the detail in 17 when I look at it. | ||

They reused the cover from #20 for this issue with new colors. |

New picture frame cover for a reprint of issue #25. Never liked this one as much as the original. Still hoping to find a nicer copy of this issue. |
