The Uncanny X-Men 1981 #193 Direct ed. - back issue - $7.00
Callisto rescues Professor X and returns him to the mansion decked out in Morlock gear (which the rest of the X-Men find incredibly funny). The Hellions capture Banshee and dare the X-Men to come and rescue him. The X-Men prevail but Thunderbird comes after Xavier in retaliation for his brother's death (way back in X-Men #95). Xavier talks him out of his quest for revenge and both Thunderbird and Firestar are asked to join the team (and both decline).
Double-Sized issue. On-sale date from Amazing Heroes #64. Counting from Giant-size X-Men (Marvel, 1975 series) #1, this is the 100th appearance of the ?All New, All Different X-Men?.
- Warhunt 2 - Art credit details confirmed 2006 by Dan Green. First Firestar in the Marvel Universe; first actual appearance in comics is in Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends (Marvel, 1981 series) #1 (based on the cartoon).
