The original X-Men by Roger Cruz (2024) in an homage to the iconic promo poster for The Breakfast Club (1985)
1978's X-Men Vol.1 #111's (LGY : Uncanny X-Men #111) last page by writer Chris Claremont, artist John Byrne, inker Terry Austin, colorist Mary Titus and letterer Tom Orzechowski (what a dream team, also joined by editor Roger Stern in the next issues).
“Earn It.”, by Barry Windsor-Smith & Chris Claremont, with Letters by Tom Orzechowski.
In my opinion, this is the definitive statement on Wolverine’s morality. Two words: “Earn It”. Be worthy of respect. Be better. Earn your place in life. Earn it.
If Spider-Man’s essential message is “with great power comes great responsibility”, than Wolverine’s message is simple, “don’t dwell on the fuckups. Just be better. Earn the life you want.”
Earn it.

Summer fun with the X-Men by Kaare Andrews in an interconnecting series of variant covers from Unknown Comics that was also published as a Marvel Signature Print as a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive (2024)
Kaare Andrews is better at doing 90s X-Men than Jim Lee ever was.
His characters look unique. They don’t look like a guy copying every popular artist that came before him and then mashed together. Kaare’s work looks like he grew up loving this stuff, but has a unique take on them.
Why do I shit on Jim Lee? Because his work is dull. It sells unbelievably well, and his success is a high water mark for the industry. But his work looks like it belongs on a lunchbox, not telling a story.
