X-Men #130 — F, 6.0

$94.00

The X-Men #130 (Feb 1980) — F (6.0)

The dramatic debut of the Dazzler — the disco-era mutant icon who steps straight into the heart of the Hellfire Club saga. Byrne and Claremont fire on all cylinders here: Phoenix slipping deeper into Mastermind’s illusions, the Hellfire Club tightening its grip, and the X-Men racing to recruit a brand-new mutant before Emma Frost gets to her first.

This is one of the true heat-check issues of the Dark Phoenix run. Big moments, big energy, and a cover that explodes off the page.

Cover — “The Dramatic Debut of the Dazzler!”

Art: John Romita Jr. & Terry Austin
A chaotic, glitter-burst disco showdown — Dazzler front and center, the X-Men caught mid-battle, and that late-’70s Marvel color blast firing at full strength.

“Dazzler” — 17 pages

Art: John Byrne & Terry Austin
The X-Men escape Emma Frost, hunt down the newest mutant on the block, and collide with the Hellfire Club’s rising power. The first full appearance of Dazzler, plus the first full intro of Sebastian Shaw.

Maj. Picto’s Grading Notes — F (6.0)

Clean mid-grade copy with solid gloss. Front cover shows moderate spine ticks, light creasing, and mild edge wear. Corners are soft but stable. Back cover has general handling wear and light soiling. Interior pages are off-white and firmly attached. Presents well — a strong, affordable copy of a key Dark Phoenix-era issue.
