The Marvel Comics Illustrated Version of The X-Men

In 1982, Marvel released this single-issue prestige-format adaptation of the classic X-Men storyline, written by Chris Claremont with art by John Byrne. It re-presented the team's origin and early adventures in a condensed, illustrated style aimed at a broader audience. Though a brief publication, it stands as a polished snapshot of the Claremont-Byrne era, capturing the core X-Men mythos in a self-contained package.
