Description"The Quality of Hatred!"The X-Men regroup, tending to their wounds after the intense battle. Wolverine, deeply shaken by his encounter with Proteus, finds himself in an unusually fragile state. Sensing the need for action, Cyclops deliberately provokes a fight to snap him out of it. Colossus, unaware of Cyclops's intentions, attempts to intervene, but Phoenix—having read Scott’s mind—stops him. Cyclops’s calculated taunts escalate the tension, drawing responses not only from Wolverine but also from Nightcrawler and Storm. As the conflict peaks, Cyclops calls for peace and reveals his purpose: to test their psychological resilience and ensure no hidden damage lingered beneath the surface. What more could a fan of this era crave from the heart of the Byrne/Austin X-Men run? An action-packed scene, of course! And what do we have here? Not just any battle, but a spectacular showcase of the powers of three major X-Men, capped off with an exceptionally rare and nearly unheard-of X-Men vs. X-Men showdown. Legendary! Social/Sharing |

Hmmmm.... people seem to really like these Byrne/Austin X-Men pages. Maybe I'll grab one of these over the weekend and see what the big deal is.

Goddess pose by Storm! Memorable image by Byrne/Austin. Cyclops' plans are often ill advised and one could see that it's leading the team to disaster within a year of this.

This is fabulous. It hits the top of the scale on both comic history and artistic talent. The type of piece which is a standout in any collection. Byrne/Austin/Claremont are special to so many of us here. I saw this and went straight back to when I read this book in 1979.
A priviledge to have this gem available for us to enjoy here on CAF!
Thank you for sharing it.

Panel 3 would do me. You are highly unlikely to cut up the page to make my day! Too generous of you...you are going to send me the whole page, as a gift! Another unlikely daydream...

That third panel is so good with the stark contrast between white and black, with an epic Storm pose to boot. Congrats on the pickup!

Serious page. I had just spent my "allowence" last auction so I had to pass. Hopefully something this cool will come up again middle of the year. Great pickup...

You got a great one! Love this Byrne/Austin page from X-Men #127. Bryne and Austin packed a ton of action into this one page as Cyclops tangles with Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Storm! Every panel is filled with surprising battle tactics as Cyc tests the others to see if they've suffered any pyschological damage from their earlier battle with Proteus. It's fun for us readers to see all this team rough-housing, but the best panel on the page is the third panel, where Storm, evoking her full power, holds up one arm and says, "ENOUGH!" Storm's fierce pose in this scene is totally killer! Great pick-up, congrats!

Byrne/Austin?
Pretty cool.
Heavy action?
Pretty cool.
Goddess Storm pose, as Marcus so adroitly pointed out?
Pretty cool.
BAMF!
Priceless!
