Description
One of my collecting goals is to someday own an X-Men cover from Cockrum, Byrne or Paul Smith. That being said, this is a pretty good substitute.

The best part of the Classic X-men books were all the amazing covers that were done. A fantastic pick up and I am sure you will reach your other cover  goal soon.

This is one of the best of Lightle's Classic X-Men covers--and a great example of his work.  Such an underrated artist--love how precise his linework is.  Congrats!

i have to say the picture doesn't do it justice. This one is definitely getting framed and hung.

Lightle captured everything you need to know that Dark Phoenix is all powerful and updated it in a more modern fashion than UXM135.  Incredible how the fire extends and even over the logo for bigger impact on the audience.

I have had this one in my small "Wanted" gallery since 2006 - it popped up and was sold in minutes in 2022 before I saw it - congrats on a supreme example!

All you have to do is get him an X-Men cover from Cockrum, Byrne or Paul Smith and it could be yours! Lol.

Man, this is slick... love the smoke coming off her head and the way Cyclops and wolverine blend into the negative space of the background. A+ cover

Absolutely stunning X-Men Classic cover! Gorgeous work by Steve Lightle. I love this drawing of Dark Phoenix standing triumphantly over Professor X's prone body and broken wheelchair. And it's pretty scary the way the X-Men are all pulling back, clearly frightened of what the Phoenix will do next. Brilliantly pencilled and inked by Lightle. Fabulous pick-up, congrats!
