“Getaway!”

In "Getaway!", the New Mutants find themselves caught in a sudden shift between realities when Magik takes Psyche on a tour of Limbo before bringing them back to the Massachusetts Academy—only to be met with a challenge from the Hellions. The tense standoff is cut short by the unexpected arrival of Sebastian Shaw and Emma Frost, sending the group scrambling before Magik swiftly teleports everyone back home. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life by Sal Buscema’s dynamic art, with inks by Tom Mandrake and Kim DeMulder, and colors by Glynis Wein, this 1984 issue captures a pivotal moment in the team’s journey. The cover by June Brigman and Bill Sienkiewicz perfectly frames the chaos, a 60-cent comic in 1984 that remains a standout for fans of early New Mutants lore.
