About this Collection

This volume collects the earliest adventures of the original X-Men, reprinting issues #11–20 of the 1960s series. It features the team's battles against classic foes like the Juggernaut, the Sentinels, and the Stranger, with stories by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. As the second Marvel Masterworks volume for the X-Men, it captures the formative era of the mutant team before their later reinvention.

In "The Triumph of Magneto!" from Marvel Masterworks #7 (1988), the X-Men are sent to investigate a mysterious entity on Earth—only to find themselves caught between a newly arrived alien, the Stranger, and Magneto’s escalating ambitions. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with dynamic artwork by Jack Kirby, this issue features Kirby’s bold cover pencils and Chic Stone’s inks, capturing the clash of cosmic forces and mutant resolve. As Xavier uncovers the Stranger’s true nature, the fate of Magneto and Toad takes an unexpected turn into the unknown.
