In the fateful climax of UXM 137, the X-Men find themselves fighting the Shi’ar Royal Guard for the life of Jean. During the battle, Claremont & Byrne expertly use a conflict between Colossus and Gladiator to symbolize the impossible: the X-Men aren’t going to win. 1/7

When Storm thrusts her hand in the sky in a dramatic gesture, the balloons are wedged apart, creating a sense of her movement and the power behind it. When Uatu shows up on a screen, the balloons squish against the edges, creating a sense of bursting in and surprise. 6/10

Then, Kurt teaches Daniel to juggle. It’s a lengthy sequence, which can feel jarring between the weighty emotions & life-and-death stakes that bracket it. But the sequence is lengthy for a reason—because it’s where Claremont signposts this as a story about storytelling. 8/11
