X-Men Classic #78

In "Romances," the X-Men navigate tangled personal lives as Kitty and Colossus share a quiet moment, Binary joins the Starjammers, and Wolverine faces Mariko over their broken wedding. Amidst these emotional currents, Scott and Maddie’s engagement takes them to a secluded cabin in Alaska—where a sudden shift in the air signals something far more dangerous than romance. Written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Paul Smith, with inks by Bob Wiacek and colors by Glynis Wein, this issue captures the fragile balance between love and power. The cover by Adam Hughes captures the mood with a striking, intimate portrait.
