About the series
Running from 1986 to 1990, Marvel's Classic X-Men was a reprint series that paired iconic stories from the team's legendary late-1970s and early-1980s run (by the core creative team of Chris Claremont, John Byrne, Dave Cockrum, and Len Wein) with new, original backup features. These fresh short tales, often spotlighting fan-favorite characters like Nightcrawler, Colossus, Logan, Cyclops, and Storm, added depth and context to the classic adventures. The series remains a vital archive of the era that defined the X-Men’s modern mythos, offering both nostalgia and new insights for readers.
