X-MEN #115

X-Men #115 is another incredible chapter from the legendary Claremont and Byrne run that helped transform the X-Men into Marvel’s biggest franchise. This issue brings the terrifying Sauron back into the spotlight as the X-Men battle one of their most visually iconic enemies.

The cover is pure Bronze Age greatness — Wolverine charging into battle alongside Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Colossus, and Storm while the massive shadow of Sauron looms over the team. The bright pink background combined with the dark green of Sauron creates one of the most eye-catching X-Men covers of the late 70s.

Collectors continue chasing these early Claremont-era books because they represent the foundation of modern X-Men storytelling. Long before giant mega-keys exploded in price, issues like #115 quietly became essential books for fans building complete runs and investing in classic Marvel history.
