X-Men Classic #59

In "First Blood," Cyclops grapples with the revelation that Corsair is his father as the X-Men are seized by the Shi'ar and given a desperate 24-hour ultimatum: find the kidnapped Lilandra or face retaliation. With Kitty and Kurt left behind as hostages, the team turns to the Avengers—only to encounter Tigra. Racing through the wreckage of the new IBM complex, they battle Deathbird and the Brood in a fight for Lilandra’s freedom, only to discover Colossus wounded beyond hope in the rubble. Written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Dave Cockrum, with inks by Bob Wiacek and colors by Glynis Oliver, this pivotal issue features a striking cover by Mike Mignola.
