“Folly's Gambit”

In "Folly's Gambit," the young X-Men train on Muir Isle under Banshee’s guidance, but Dazzler’s frustration leads her into town—where she unexpectedly faces the unstoppable Juggernaut. With dynamic art by Jackson Guice and Steve Leialoha, and a striking cover by Walter Simonson and Bob Wiacek, this 1987 issue captures a pivotal moment in the team’s development.
