In "Combat mortel avec le Prince des Mers !", the X-Men are sent by Professor X to investigate a new mutant, leading them to a mysterious carnival where they meet the Blob—a towering sideshow performer whose thick, elastic body deflects bullets and resists movement. Though the X-Men try to recruit him, the Blob refuses, only to be brought back to the mansion when his knowledge of their secret becomes a risk. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby with inks by Paul Reinman, this 1984 issue from Editions Lug features a striking cover by Jean-Yves Mitton.
