Where it came from
Published by Marvel Comics in June 1979, The X-Men #122 represents a notable chapter during the celebrated Chris Claremont and John Byrne run on the series. This issue is part of the 'Alpha Flight' story arc, which introduced the Canadian superhero team into the X-Men mythos. The narrative centers on the team's ongoing struggle with the government-backed group as they attempt to reclaim Wolverine, a conflict that deepened the internal lore of the X-Men universe.
The artwork features the distinct penciling of John Byrne, whose clean, dynamic style helped define the visual language of the late 1970s Marvel aesthetic. Terry Austin provided the inks, adding a signature sharpness that complemented the dramatic, high-stakes tone Claremont cultivated for the X-Men during this era. The issue remains highly regarded by collectors for its role in solidifying the X-Men’s transition into an international phenomenon.
