About X-Men: The Early Years
Of the two titles that undertook reprinting the early exploits of the early X-Men (this title and Amazing Adventures (1979)), X-Men: The Early Years represented a dedication by Marvel to higher production standards. Printed on better quality paper than 1979's Amazing Adventures, this book did not edit or break up the original stories in any way and frequently, though not always, featured a quality pin-up of the reprint issue's original cover art.
