In "Assault on Galactus!", the X-Men join forces with a desperate coalition of heroes in a final stand to stop Galactus from devouring Battleworld.

Written by Jim Shooter and brought to life by Mike Zeck’s dynamic art, with inks by John Beatty, colors by Christie Scheele, and lettering by Joe Rosen, the cover by Mike Zeck and Bob McLeod captures the epic scale of the battle.
