“Upstate New York” is as specific as I can recall.

Wow, very nice! This has to be the biggest headquarters of any  superhero team. Hope the government doesn’t come back for their  property!

 How big is he JLA satellite? 
  
 
 In any event, it's going to be difficult keeping the X-Men's new place clean. Hopefully, Pablo's mom will be given some help...

As I recall the Sentinels built this base for Larry Trask. I don’t recall any government involvement. What have I forgotten?

JB- Of the original run of X-Men (1-66) was there a favorite of yours? And was it for art or story?

There was a certain magic to the first half dozen issues, bought off the stands as they came out. I had a particular fondness for Paul Reiman’s inks. (A page from the fifth issue adorns my studio wall.)Of course, when I returned to reading comics in 1971 I was totally blown away by the Adams/Palmer combination.

Reading over some older comments (issue 2) I found myself “revealing” that a “hollowed-out mountain” lay in the future for the X-Men. Well, that didn’t take long, did it?

Awesome pages! I love the Kitty/Ashley dynamic. Ashley's facial expression and "OH-HHH...PHNRT!" are just perfect.

For someone who's yet to appear in uniform, Ashley's certainly seen more than her share of action ... some of it dating back to XHY.
