A Collection of unpublished or rarely seen art from Marvel's X-Men Comics. This blog will also feature promotional art, commissions, alternate covers, and trade paperback & graphic novel covers.
Neal Adams was also to do an X-MEN Marvel Graphic Novel, but he withdrew from the project when he said that he did not receive the contract he was initially promised by Jim Shooter, sometime in early 1983.

I'd guess this above ad appeared in a 1982 issue of AMAZING HEROES.
