I wasn't sure how Tom Palmer was going to do because I didn't like the way the Silver Surfer one shot looked but boy was I impressed with the art on XHY!

On the SURFER job, Shooter instructed Tom to redraw a lot of stuff -- on XHY, Tom was happy to stick very closely to what I drew. And when I asked him to, as with Ororo, he inked exactly what I drew.

Figures. I knew there had to some explanation. I think Amazing Heroes or some fanzine printed a couple of pencilled pages from the SS comic and they were beautiful! Nothing needed to be redrawn!

One of the things that was fun about XHY, of course, was that being set in the Past it was bound to neither real time nor "Marvel time". I could put as many issues of my book between those extracurricular activities as I wanted!

I always wondered how many of issues you could have done. Did you have enough plots and energy for a hundred issues? Or would you say that after a certain amount of issues you would have ended the title?

With a regime change, there might be a way to know.

Basically, it ran monthly for the last new issue, X-Men #66, which was cover dated March, 1970

Then, it was revived as a bi-monthly reprint title with X-Men #67 cover dated December, 1970 and continued bi-monthly through X-Men #92 which came out February, 1975.  Four months later (June, 1975), X-Men #93, the final reprint issue, came out.

The new stories resumed in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (May, 1975) and X-Men #94 (August, 1975) and continued bi-monthly until X-Men #112-113 come out in consecutive months (August & September, 1978).  From that point on it was a monthly title.
