world of Marvel's mutant adventurers, the X-Men! Billled as "The
Strangest Super-Heroes of All!" the X-Men blasted onto the comic-book

mission of peace and brotherhood for man and mutant, in their first
battle with the Master of Magnetism, Magneto. You'll also read the
first appearances of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Marvel Universe
mainstays, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, the villainous Blob and
Unus the Untouchable, as well as the reinvention of the Golden Age
jungle man, Ka-Zar!
