Description
Original art page from Marvel Super-Heroes: Secret Wars #5 (1984), penciled by Bob Layton and inked by John Beatty during Layton’s guest contribution to the series.

The page depicts Magneto and Professor X combining their powers in an attempt to establish telepathic contact with Galactus, while the assembled heroes debate their next move at the base of his mountain on Battleworld. The sequence ends with Galactus rebuffing the attempt and unleashing a destructive energy blast that sends Reed Richards flying.

While Mike Zeck illustrated the majority of Secret Wars, Layton’s issue provides a distinct storytelling variation within the series, making pages from this chapter particularly interesting within the original art run.

Word balloons are original production paste-ups. Panel three is an original art replacement.

Everything from this series was mind blowing!  A major crossover that made kids fans of the entire Marvel Universe at a time when people could afford to buy every single title Marvel was putting out!  Very slick artwork with Layton filling in and Beatty making it blend in with the Zeck look.
