The X-Men #141 in context
Why collectors care
The opening of "Days of Future Past," cover-dated January 1981, by Claremont and Byrne. The two-issue story (#141-142) is among the most influential in superhero comics, and its John Byrne and Terry Austin cover -- the wanted poster of slain and captured X-Men -- is one of the most homaged covers ever published.
How to identify it
X-Men #141, cover-dated January 1981, released October 21, 1980. The series was branded "The Uncanny X-Men" on the cover by this point, so listings appear under both X-Men and Uncanny X-Men; they are the same run.
Common mistakes
Buying #142 (the conclusion) as the key, or buying one of the many later comics that homage this cover. Confirm the issue number and the 1981 cover date.
Grade considerations
The white-background cover shows soiling, fingerprints, and edge wear immediately, which caps a lot of otherwise sharp copies. High grade is where the premium sits.
