“Cry for the Children!”

In "Cry for the Children!", the X-Men face a storm of personal and external threats as Wolverine pushes Colossus to confront his doubts, while Xavier journeys to attend Lilandra's coronation. Jean meets Jason for the first time, Storm returns to her roots to find them twisted beyond recognition, and Wolverine spots Mariko in New York—just as Cyclops tries to navigate a date with Colleen. Meanwhile, Arcade secretly schemes with Tom and the Juggernaut to eliminate the team. Written by John Byrne and Chris Claremont, with art by Byrne and Terry Austin, and a striking cover by Dave Cockrum and Terry Austin, this 1979 issue captures the X-Men at a tense, pivotal moment.
