What Is The Greatest Marvel Cover Of The 90s? We’re gonna scientifically figure this out thanks to YOU, dear reader! I combed thru the ~10,000 Marvel covers of the 90s to pick (IMHO) the 200 best. The next few days I’ll post ‘em and let y’all vote on the best! #Best90sMarvelCover

2477). May1987. Marvel released the Official X-Men Index, an update to the original one from ‘81. Plunket/PCR with the cover to issue #1 (I kinda like the choice to give Xavier the Cable-like yellow eye flare)

Otto might actually use that line on someone, I could see it, although it would probably remind him of May too much :/

Pete’s face when he realizes he has rent money if he uses his heretofore unknown Daily Bugle savings account 😂 Never good with money, that Pete!

Worth noting that we appear to have reached absolute peak 80s X-Men/GI Joe supremacy at Marvel by this point. Even old 70s X-Men reprints were outselling basically everything else in the line
Claremont leaving the New Mutants?! Doesn’t appear that Weezie’s teases led anywhere (Apocalypse, a new character with super-strength)

Mephisto trades Sue for Jean! Hmmm, Jean, Maddy, demons, I’m sure that will never come up again Also, Buscema draws a great Jean

Mags ends up accepting the meeting. On another note, I kinda like that Magneto has a body of a 70ish year old man here. Modern artists often draw him ripped up with every muscle bulging like a prime Steve Rogers or Bruce Wayne-level physique

Chuck makes Xuan force Illyana to bring the team back home…and she ain’t happy about it! “I may sheathe my magic blade…in your HEARTS!”

Nice convo between Ororo and Mags. They would of course continue to have a good dynamic in decades to come (well, most of the time) “I have faith in you.” “More, I suspect…then I have in myself.”
