''X-Men'' comic strip, issue #2 from the 1991 series relaunch, hand-drawn by Jim Lee and signed at the bottom by Lee on 5 February 1998.

With excellent, explosive graphics, penciled by Lee and then inked by Scott Williams. Tom Orzechowski adds the lettering to the story, written by Chris Claremont and Lee. Drawn upon Marvel Comics illustration board, with dialogue bubbles glued on. Williams' ink quill test scratches appear on the verso. Comic strip measures 11'' x 17''. Light yellowing from glue in some areas, but well preserved and overall in very good plus condition.
