Spitball

Born into the pages of The Uncanny X-Men #232 in 1988, Spitball is a Copper Age Marvel creation from the legendary team of Chris Claremont and Marc Silvestri, emerging during one of the most celebrated runs in X-Men history. Affiliated with both the Brood and the X-Men, this character occupies a fascinating and unusual corner of the mutant universe, sharing the page with titans like Storm, Scott Summers, and Logan. With one of their scant three catalog appearances earning key-issue recognition, Spitball may be a rare presence — but rarity has its own reward for the dedicated collector hunting the deeper cuts of that era's extraordinary storytelling.
