Description
Dave Cockrum Marvel Illustrated Books: The X-Men Cover Original Art (Marvel, 1982). Similar to Cockrum's splash page of Giant-Size X-Men #1, this scene was painted for the mass-market paperback that reprinted that classic first appearance of the new X-Men (the first time that story was ever reprinted, if we're not mistaken). Featuring Angel, Banshee, Nightcrawler, Wolverine, Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Colossus, Storm, Iceman, and Thunderbird, led by Professor X. This may be the only painted image of the X-Men team by Cockrum that exists, and any published art by him with the entire team would take a small fortune to pry loose from the collectors who own them. So this lot is an opportunity not to be missed. Gouache on illustration board with an image area of 10.75" x 17". Slight toning, corner dings, marginal smudging and staining, with edge and handling wear. Signed by Cockrum in the lower left image area and in Very Good condition.More information about Dave Cockrum. See also: Cockrum, Dave Artist. Lookup the Comic Book in our Guide
