X-MEN(Marvel-1991)#33 Gambit Appr. (8.0)

Description: X-MEN (Marvel - 1991) Issue: 33 Grade average: VF I will combine shipping just ask! Actual Picture Shown! Additional Information:In 1991, Marvel launched X-Men (Vol. 2) as a spin-off of the parent title Uncanny X-Men, with co-writers Chris Claremont and Jim Lee, previously the penciler on Uncanny, moving over to X-Men, while studio mate Whilce Portacio took over penciling duties on Uncanny. X-Men #1 is still the bestselling comic book of all time, with pre-order sales of over 8.1 million copies, according to Guinness Book of World Records, which presented honors to Claremont at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con. It is estimated that somewhere between 3–4 million copies were actually sold. The sales figures were generated in part by publishing the issue with five different variant covers, four of which showed different characters from the book that combined into a tetraptych image, and a fifth, gatefold cover that combined these four, large numbers of which were purchased by retailers, who anticipated fans and speculators who would buy multiple copies in order to acquire a complete collection of the covers. Chris Claremont left after three issues due to creative differences with editor Bob Harras. Writers John Byrne and Scott Lobdell handled dialogue to Lee's plotting after Claremont's departure, and Lee himself left the title after issue #11 to form a new company, Image Comics with several other Marvel artists. Various creative teams contributed to the series from 1992 to 2001, with notable writers including Fabian Nicieza, Scott Lobdell, and Joe Kelly, with Chris Claremont returning to the title for a short run ten years after his original departure. Artists included Andy Kubert, and Carlos Pacheco among many others. Initially, the book focused on the Blue team led by Cyclops, with the other members forming the Gold team led by Storm. This premise has at times faded from mention, only to be resurrected, with the X-Men divided at times into two and even three separate squads. Important events and crossovers covered by the series include the wedding of Jean Grey and Cyclops, X-Cutioner's Song, the Legacy virus, Fatal Attractions, Legion Quest and Onslaught. The series was interrupted and replaced by Amazing X-Men for four issues in 1995 as part of the Age of Apocalypse crossover. --Source Wikipedia Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
