“Castles in the Air! [Part 2 of 3]”

Marking the X-Men's 30th anniversary in 1993, this crossover issue promises "all-out action against Professor Power" as Spider-Man swings into the fray alongside the X-Men. Sal Buscema's cover captures the energy of the team-up beautifully, with a massive armored villain at center, Beast crouching at the ready on the right, Cyclops charging in on the left, Psylocke and Iceman flanking from behind, and Spider-Man leaping in from above — quite the assembled force. Part two of a three-part story by J. M. DeMatteis and Buscema, this issue delivers the kind of superhero collision that makes Marvel's shared universe so much fun.
