Herrera, Ben - Adventures of the X-Men #6 p.05 - Apocalypse! - $1,100

This 1996 interior page from Adventures of the X-Men #6 is a fantastic example of the high-energy, animated style that defined this era of Marvel’s mutant titles. Pencilled by Ben Herrera and finished with the sharp, polished inks of Gary Martin, the page features the legendary villain Apocalypse in a display of overwhelming force. The composition is classic 90s Marvel, using dynamic poses to heighten the sense of action as Apocalypse effortlessly brushes aside Magneto's attack.

The storytelling here is very clear, beginning with a tense exchange between Magneto and the Scarlet Witch before shifting into a full-scale confrontation. Herrera’s pencils capture the massive, technological bulk of Apocalypse perfectly, while Martin’s ink work provides the clean, high-contrast look that made this series a visual standout for fans of the X-Men animated aesthetic. It’s a great narrative page that showcases three of the most powerful figures in the X-Men mythos: Scarlet Witch, Magneto and Apocalypse, all on a single board. For a collector of 90's X-history, this is a quintessential piece that balances character drama with the larger-than-life scale of a mutant showdown.
