Days of Future Passed

Here's the cover for The Uncanny X-Men bookshelf edition of Days of Future Past by Jackson Guice, offering a different angle of the action.

On a side note, Classic X-Men did not reprint the Days of Future Past storyline due to this book's release around the same time.

Greatest Comics Never Seen - Wedding of Cyclops and Phoenix

According to an article in Marvel Vision 19, the wedding of Cyclops and Phoenix was originally scheduled for X-Factor #66 in May of 1991.  An editorial decision was made to postpone the wedding so it could take place in X-Men.  However, this cover by Whilce Portacio and Jackson Guice was produced before the event was cancelled.

A Matter of Perspective

Here's a convention poster by Jackson "Butch" Guice for Heroes Con in 84.

The End?

According to Bob Layton's website:

"This piece, penciled by Jackson (Butch) Guice was slated to be the cover to X-Factor #2--which featured a story revolving around the Beast--Hank McCoy facing off against the powerful size-changing mutant known as Tower.  However, it was deemed unsuitable because the editors felt it was too soon for a mere, single character on the cover of a team book."
