Where it came from
The Uncanny X-Men #262 was published in June 1990 during a transitional period for the X-Men franchise. Written by Chris Claremont with art by Jim Lee, this issue is a pivotal chapter in the 'Days of Future Present' storyline. It finds the X-Men contending with the arrival of adult versions of the New Mutants from an alternate timeline, reflecting the era's narrative focus on time travel, legacy, and the encroaching shadow of dystopian futures.
The visual identity of this issue is defined by Jim Lee’s evolving style, which helped solidify the modern aesthetic of the X-Men during the early 1990s. Lee’s work here favored dynamic, high-contrast action sequences and a more refined character detail that would soon characterize the massive success of the 1991 X-Men #1 relaunch. The issue was received as a key bridge between the long-running narrative arcs of the 1980s and the glossy, high-energy storytelling that would dominate the comic book industry for the remainder of the decade.
