Editorial Review: Product Description: 1969: The X-Men, Marvel's poorest selling title, flagging in sales and on the verge of cancellation, was in dire need of a shot in the arm. A new direction. A new vision. Enter Roy Thomas and Neal Adams, and True Believer, you had better grab onto your hat and get ready for one of the most amazing evolutions in Marvel history! These two titanic talents threw caution to the wind with sensational stories that brought the X-Men in synch with the thriving youth culture of the late '60s. Prepare yourself for the introduction of mutant mainstay Havok, the vampiric villain Sauron, the Mutates, and X-Man-to-be Sunfire! Not to mention, the Living Pharaoh, a classic team-up with Ka-Zar in the Savage Land, as well as the return of Magneto and Professor X! Plus: No longer an X-Man, not yet an Avenger, the loquacious, sedulous and conscientious Hank P. McCoy tried a stint as mad scientist and ended up creating - and BEING - his own monster! Now blue but never yellow, the bouncing bombastic one used his new look against old enemies like the Juggernaut and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, with Quasimodo and the Secret Empire waiting in the wings! And while the Beast gets furried and hurried, his former teammates are fighting the likes of Morbius and the Hulk! Whether solo or squad, a mutant's work is never done! Also featuring the return of Patsy Walker and the end of the Mimic... or is it? Guest-starring Spider-Man and Iron Man!
