Strange #7
"Le retour du Colosse" marks a pivotal moment in the X-Men's journey, as Cyclops assumes leadership under Professor Xavier’s temporary absence—only for a shocking twist to unravel when the Blob’s forgotten past resurfaces. With Jack Kirby’s dynamic art and Stan Lee’s sharp storytelling, the issue builds tension through Xavier’s new Cerebro machine and Magneto’s growing alliance with the Brotherhood. Wally Wood’s striking cover captures the chaos, while the story unfolds with unexpected loyalty shifts and high-stakes confrontations, all leading to a dramatic call to arms.
In "Le retour du Colosse," the X-Men return to action when Cyclops, newly in charge under Professor Xavier’s temporary absence, activates Cerebro and discovers the Blob’s hidden connection to the X-Men’s past. As Magneto recruits the Blob into the Brotherhood, a sudden surge of memory breaks Xavier’s mental blocks—revealing a secret that sends shockwaves through the team. With tensions flaring and missiles flying, the Blob must choose between loyalty to his new allies and the life he once left behind.
In "Combat mortel avec le Prince des Mers," Namor, the Sub-Mariner, takes a radical stand against humanity by hiring Franklin and Murdock to sue them in court—only to escalate when diplomacy fails. Arrested and brought before a judge, he turns his trial into a declaration of war, unleashing chaos that draws Daredevil into a battle he can't win. The story ends with Namor retreating to the sea, not in defeat, but to protect Atlantis from a greater threat.
