Thanks for those covers, sum1!

Thanks for the pics, Theresa! But I hope Hugh is okay. He does look a bit off lately.

I get nostalgic looking at them, sum1. Especially the 80's covers.

That's good. There's some great stuff from the '80s.

It's actually educating me a lot, sum. I grew up watching the X-Men cartoons but never paid much to the comic books until I became a Hugh fan.

I'm glad, Theresa. The comic books are the life blood of the movies and TV shows and should be given more respect.

Yep, that definitely does look like John Byrne's art. Very square-jawed. Thanks, sum1!

Very cool looking covers, sum! Do you have the entire collection?

Hugh did a ton of charity stuff in the last few days (several different charities, including his own), but I'm too tired to post it. Plus, he's on the Board of Directors for a Charter School and sang songs from The Greatest Showman with all the kids.

Weapon X was a prequel/origin title, right, sum1? Thanks for the awesome cover!

OMG, that's awesome, Theresa! Hugh looks like he's applying for sainthood with all the stuff he does.

Yeah, it first apppeared in stories in Marvel Comics Presents and it was eventually collected in a reprint volume.

Yeah, I missed that title because I wasn't collecting comics in the 90's due to my financial situation.

MCP wasn't always good. There were a lot of third rate stories serialized in its pages. I didn't like its general tone. Every once in a while they'd collect a Wolverine story from there in a reprint book and usually I found them disappointing.
