X-Men Annual 1996 - Published 30th November 1995.

Written by Larry Hama.

In the aftermath of the Onslaught debacle, the X-Men, X-Force and Generation X are enjoying a much-deserved, relaxing day at the Mansion playing baseball, cycling, and hanging at the pool, enjoying each other’s company (for the most part). Things are interrupted by a Sentinel, who descends on the mansion grounds, only to be taken down by several of the mutants. This is no ordinary Sentinel, however, for during the Onslaught incident it developed sentience. The X-Men are unsure about the Sentinel, but it dies, afraid, with only Jubilee holding its finger. The mutants discuss life with Professor Xavier, tension mounts between Joseph and Gambit, and even Gateway stops by for a visit, just in time for a group photo. The day ends at night, with a fireworks display courtesy of some of the younger mutants, before Phoenix and Cable link everyone’s mind for a sort of healing mind-merge, before they realise that nothing will ever be the same again, but that tomorrow is another day.

The Purifiers, minions of the High Evolutionary, are scouring the tunnels deep below the Earth seeking to sterilize the various races of Moloids, Tyrannoids and Lava Men due to the fact that their master has deemed them an evolutionary dead end.

Changes. Written by Louise Simonson.

X-Factor's young charges Boom-Boom, Rictor, Rusty, Skids, Artie and Leech decide to race across X-Factor's ship to the hydroponics garden, and allow each other to use their mutant powers in order to achieve their goal. While the older students fumble over each other to try and win, Artie and Leech sneak through an air duct to get to the finished line before everyone else.

The Saga Of The High Evolutionary Part 1: The Gift. Written by Mark Gruenwald.

In 1928, Hebert Edgar Wyndham is a young geneticist researcher in Husinec who bombards rats with radiation in an effort to stimulate mutations. So far all of his test subjects have died. He receives an imitation to a major genetics conference in Geneva, which he is only able to afford with family donations.

9.0 Grade - Very slight wear beginning to show around the staples and stress points owing to the comic being opened and read (carefully) two or three times and stored away with some care. For American comics, most of the cover lustre still remains and for British comics the cover should be flat, uniform creamy or off-white with only a few very minor stress creases at the spine. For American comics, only the tiniest spine wear at the top or bottom but no cover marks, no tears, no prominent creases (perhaps 2mm and quite hard to spot).

He tells them that there are two representatives from the Russian embassy who have come to see them. As they freshen themselves up for their meeting, X-Factor all privately muse what the Russian government's interest in X-Factor could be.

8.0 Grade - This is a comic with wear showing on the edges or stress around the staples. Still clean and flat with a small mark or cover writing but I do mean small. Pages may be yellowing slightly but no brown edges. Above average, read a few times and stored away with at least some concern. A staple may be detached but, if that' the case, the rest of the comic should appear Very Fine. For British comics, a little more wear on the spine and cover is permissible and there may be some corner curl evident. British comics are all shapes and sizes so corners and edges suffer more. Again, think that this is a comic that has clearly been looked after in its history.
