The original Marvel Masterworks collection of the X-Men, re-released at last! By popular demand! Back in hardcover, beautifully restored to match the original comics and boasting expanded bonus material! Welcome to Marvel's reMasterworks! The X-Men blend super-hero action, teen angst and a potent metaphor for the turbulent issues of the '60s into one potent package! After laying the foundation for what would become comics' biggest franchise, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby passed the X-Men's headmaster role to Roy Thomas and Werner Roth, who would come into their own while crafting the tales of Marvel's merry mutants. In this second amazing Masterworks volume, you'll find the first appearance of the unstoppable Juggernaut, the cosmic Stranger, the mutant Mimic, and in a classic three-part saga, the mutant-hunting Sentinels. And for good measure we're topping it off with the return of Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil mutants and a two-part tale featuring Lucifer, the early nemesis of Professor X.

The Major is a psychedelic, sequential romp created by M?bius between 1997 and 2009, following a production principle that embraces graphic spontaneity and improvisation. The lead character of this pseudo-story, Major Grubert, evolves in a humorous yet philosophical manner, echoing how M?bius's creations are treated in the Inside M?bius series. Join the Major on his last trip to the nebula of The Airtight Garage, where M?bius rules as the playful Trickster of legend. What begins as a comical jaunt into unusually profound philosophical questions regarding the nature of existence, eventually winds up as a penetrating examination of the relationship between the author and his creation, the latter of whom must necessarily suffer at the heartless whim of his creator, despite the Major's passionate desire for real life-and even freedom-beyond these comics! Translated by Diana Schutz, with lettering by Adam Pruett.
