In "Escape to Oblivion," John Byrne delivers a gripping chapter of X-Men The Hidden Years as Magneto recounts his survival after his last clash with the X-Men. With Beast and Cyclops racing to rescue Marvel Girl, Iceman heads toward the Savage Land—only for volcanic eruptions to doom the Land of the Dead. As the X-Men, Avia, and an unconscious Magneto flee aboard an airship, they’re thrown into a violent storm, testing their resolve and unity. The issue’s dynamic art by Byrne, with inks by Tom Palmer and colors by Greg Wright, brings the chaos and tension to life, while Byrne’s cover pencils and inks capture the moment’s intensity.
