1st cameo app of Apocalypse! Yahoo, the "1st Mutant?" The one who orchestrated Destiny? He wants it to be ushered in under his authority. Make this into a quality theatrical experience eventually!!! Apocalypse oh Apocalypse, how beautiful are thy annoying speeches. Making an imprint on the situation and the inevitable onslaught to follow. We've got to make do, with the big blue elastic agent man, as Apocalypse form can change to be manipulated. He's got the X-factor in the palm, so to speak, and the plan for hijinks is coming. Mutants who can be normal again. Sounds like a scam, and back when those weren't a dime a dozen. It was a new intro to the false promises made to the Mutant Kind. Magneto could only wish a cause was so easily instituted. Apocalypse would never not want to be a Mutant, no matter how attractive it sounds to those whose powers are a nuisance. Magneto would just wish that his vision could be so easily implemented.
Complete with a back cover pic showing the 90's trading card of how nefarious they wanted the Apocalypse to look, eerie! CGC grading those now needs to stand for something, there are seemingly a lot of them out there.

1st full Apocalypse. Heavily pivotal in the X-men animated series, I had to see what he's all about. As a kid the cartoons made him seem an annoyance with no particular end, He's that TOUGH! In the comics and further in his appearances, the story seemed convoluted to my young mind. He "could" be the first ever mutant, he likes to tout that at first! The X-men are in a juxtaposition, with this character who guises himself as a "healer and fixer" that turns out to be the opposite. He preyed on the weakness of Mutants to exploit them! The Cartoon was pivotal for me because my brother was too young for it, and he was confused that the X-men couldn't defeat him easily. He cried a couple times. I told him that big brother would "take care of it!" Eventually the Apocalypse seemed to have an ending, much to my satisfaction, my brother was satisfied the older brother had "took care of it!"
Complete with photo-op with the Amy Jo Johnson the Pink Power Ranger, in back cover picture, also showing a Light Saber glowing pink in the camera lenses. X-Men the Animated Series and Power Rangers were equally emotional to me and my brother growing up. Making memories again with them now, Apocalypse approved! A paperweight statue, Bowen, All Classics!

1st Full Archangel! Given to me by the boardie musteatbrains as a raw in a contest on the boards, it was raw, came back 9.4! As most of the raws he gave me accomplished that feat! Generosity! Apocalypse is up to his old tricks again, by promising "mutants" a chance to be normal, but it instead transforms them into minions of a dark nature to do his bidding! Will this corruption be too much, and the "good" guys not be able to change back? Seemingly it's up to the X-men to round up those transformed and go up against the Apocalypse. There is a bit of Moira Mactaggert and Genosha plotting as well. These have been hard pills to swallow, and the Archangel was to be the "Death" character in the Apocalypse's horsemen of the apocalypse that followed. He instructs them to destruct as if that somehow would usher in the bowing of a knee, but Apocalypse has "come before" in many forms and by many "names" that he even hat tips that line several times in the cartoons. An "apocalypse" by any other name?
Complete with back cover picture of a relatively similar angel pose, before Apocalypse turned him into the deadly Archangel. Brought to you by 90's trading cards!

1st appearance of Exodus! X-factor #92 with a Distorted Hologram designation on the label. Hallelujah lol. Found this at a Local Comic Shop, Duncanville, well their live feed, and it came back correctly labeled! The 3rd in the line of Distorted Holograms needed, for a regular cover set of completion of all 6. Glad CGC instantly labeled this one correctly, it was a nice, distorted copy for sure, and so apparent. Glad for the 1st Exodus too, that somehow had his own deal while helping Magneto. Ushering in is hard work, and the Acolytes are the usher members that are trying to do so, as underlings. Big story news after Apocalypse, and Magneto will once again go too far. Xavier gives it right back to him, double, and wipes Magnetos mind into a vegetable. That's some cold-blooded crippling right there. Poor Magneto rests in a place called Avalon up in space, awaiting help that I believe Colossus ends up bringing.
Wraparound Covers once again grab the reader to set the stage for a major shift of development, inspiring the enthralling action that also takes and makes new stages as a starting off point. Those ideals leave the reader with an impression, and if the issue is a 1st appearance too, they may welcome that reward!
