Spécial Strange #9

In "Joyeux Noël, X-Men...", La Chose prepares for a test flight in one of Tony Stark's experimental spacecraft—only to trigger a hidden cavern beneath the launch site, awakening the ancient Prester John and uncovering a powerful alien stone. Written by Bill Mantlo and illustrated by Ron Wilson, with inks by Vince Colletta and colors by Janice Cohen, this 1977 special blends sci-fi mystery with holiday intrigue, all framed by Jean Frisano’s striking cover art.
