X-Men, Volume 2, Issue #2, 'Magneto Triumphant'
This item is a copy of the comic book 'X-Men', Volume 2, Issue #2, published by Marvel Comics, with the story 'Magneto Triumphant'. The comic features a dynamic cover illustration by Jim Lee, prominently displaying Magneto in the foreground, with an intense expression and characteristic white hair, clad in his red and purple costume, emanating a blue magnetic energy field. He appears to be triumphing over several figures, which include Wolverine with his claws extended, and possibly Colossus, depicted as defeated or subdued. The artwork is characterized by its bold lines, vibrant colors (reds, purples, blues, yellows, grays), and detailed musculature typical of early 1990s comic art. Key identification elements include 'MARVEL COMICS' logo in the top left, 'X-MEN' title in large, stylized red and yellow letters across the top, and the issue number '2' with 'NOV' (November) clearly visible just below the price of '$1.00 US'. The title 'MAGNETO TRIUMPHANT' is printed below the price information. In the bottom left corner, there is a special box commemorating '30TH ANNIVERSARY THE FANTASTIC FOUR (1961-1991)', indicating the comic's publication year as 1991. Below this box, the signature 'JIM LEE' is clearly legible. The comic book appears to be preserved in a clear plastic bag or sleeve, which slightly obscures some details due to glare, particularly over Magneto's lower body and the magnetic energy effect. The edges of the comic appear relatively sharp, suggesting good preservation, though minor corner wear or surface imperfections cannot be entirely ruled out without closer inspection. The overall condition, for a comic of this age, seems to be good to very good, enhanced by its protective covering. The presence of the protective sleeve indicates that the owner recognizes its collectible value.
