Dork Note: The first X-Men book I ever bought and read was X-Men #167 and it blew my mind! I was absolutely fascinated by this world and its characters. However, I didn't know anything more about these characters then what was in the issue itself. Of course being PI (pre-internet) the only way to find out more about these characters was to buy the back issues; which I did whenever I could. And for the next few years every spare dollar I had went to buying back issues of the X-Men. Eventually, I worked my way back to issue #138. Buying that issue was like opening the door to a treasure trove of history and information! I must have read this issue at a hundred times! My hope is one day IDW/Graphitti does an Artist/Gallery Edition of this issue!
