Kirby cover; 3rd app of Blob; Origin of Professor X losing use of his legs; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 6 (CBI)
This complex tale involves Unus, the Blob, and Lucifer teaming up in an attempt to create a series of events that will turn the human populace against mutantkind, thereby bringing down the X-Men. The issue describes, in detail, the backstory of the relationship between Professor X and Lucifer, and the Professor's crippling injuries, as well as addressing Cyclops' unrequited love for Jean Grey. This is a dense issue, one which sets the stage for further interpersonal drama that would become one of the hallmarks of this groundbreaking series. This first part of a continuing storyline was penciled by Werner Roth and inked by Dick Ayers.
