X-Men Classic #97

In "Warhunt 2," Callisto brings Professor X back to the mansion dressed in Morlock gear—much to the X-Men’s amusement—while the Hellions take Banshee hostage, daring the team to come after him. With tension high and old wounds reopened, the X-Men face off against their foes, only to see Thunderbird confront Xavier over his brother’s death, leading to a tense moment of reckoning that ends with Xavier urging him to reconsider, and Firestar and Thunderbird both turning down an offer to join the team. Written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by John Romita Jr., with Dan Green’s inks, Glynis Wein’s colors, and Tom Orzechowski’s lettering, this 1994 issue features a cover by Matthew Ryan.
