"Behold the Silver Surfer!" kicks off with a dramatic clash between the X-Men and Magneto, as the team—fresh from training and meeting new student Jean Grey at Professor X’s school—races to stop the mutant mastermind from taking control of an Air Force base. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with Kirby’s bold art and Reinman’s sharp inks, this issue delivers a classic clash of ideals, all framed by Kirby’s dynamic cover and Sinnott’s crisp inks.

In their first mission together, the newly formed X-Men—Cyclops, Angel, Beast, Iceman, and Marvel Girl—step out of Professor X’s school for the first time, eager and uncertain, as they’re sent to stop Magneto from taking over an Air Force base. With the team still finding their rhythm and Magneto’s motives shrouded in mystery, the young mutants face their first real test: proving they can work together, even as the stakes rise.
