“God Loves, Man Kills”

About this Collection

This 1982 Marvel Graphic Novel, the fifth in the series, presents a standalone X-Men story written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Brent Anderson. It follows the mutant team as they confront a charismatic, anti-mutant televangelist named William Stryker, whose crusade threatens the existence of all mutants. Widely regarded as a seminal X-Men tale, it explores themes of prejudice, faith, and persecution, and later served as a major inspiration for the 2003 X-Men film X2.

In X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills #1 (1994), writer Chris Claremont and artist Brent Anderson deliver a gripping exploration of faith, fear, and prejudice as the X-Men and Magneto confront a powerful preacher whose fiery sermons ignite a global wave of anti-mutant violence. The story unfolds with intense moral stakes, set against a backdrop where hatred is preached from the pulpit and the line between divine justice and human fanaticism begins to blur. Cover by Bill Sienkiewicz captures the tension with haunting, expressive detail.
