Carol grabs some cl...

History: From Marvel Comics In October 1991, Chris Claremont and Jim Lee’s X-MEN #1 set the comic market on fire on its way to approximately 8.1 million copies sold. (That’s still an all-time record!) We’ve previously touched on the issue’s significance for the way that it reignited the conflict between Charles Xavier and Magneto.
