The entire original X-Men lineup — Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Beast, Iceman, and Angel — faces a formidable dark-winged menace on Werner Roth and Dick Ayers's cover for this September 1966 issue, as the towering, caped Locust looms in the foreground while the team scrambles behind him. Titled "The Plague of… the Locust!", this Roy Thomas-scripted chapter delivers the kind of colorful, kinetic Marvel energy that made the Silver Age so distinctive. It's a vivid snapshot of the X-Men at their mid-sixties best, fighting a villain who clearly means business.
