What If Magneto Formed The X-Men?
While still working on Uncanny X-Men Chris Claremont and John Byrne came up with an idea for a new story: What if Magneto Had Formed The Original X-Men? While this issue was never produced, several pages of character sketches exist. However, John Byrne has just completed a commission of what the cover might have looked like!
The first page of the issue, a tribute to X-Men #1, was completed.
Jean Grey's codename was Psyke. Dani Moonstar of the New Mutants originally had the codename Psyche.
While Cyclops is unchanged here, other sketches have different versions of the visor. Jean Grey's costume is also slightly different here.
Beast had arm gauntlets with retractable claws, and Archangel was to have a flaming sword. Angel's name would be changed to Archangel later in X-Factor.
Both Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were to be part of this team.
The Photoshopped image below was going to be the cover piece for this article until John Byrne came to the rescue with the excellent commission at the top of the page.

Fantastic!
Fantastic was a British comic magazine published in the 1960's. It contained comic strips as well as black and white reprints of Marvel Comics stories. Here are a few X-Men related pinpus from the magazine. More pinups can be found in this Flickr gallery, courtesy of tinybatch:
While some of the images contain art from the comics, many of them appear to be original art produced for the magazine. Feel free to try to identify the artist of each piece.
