Kicking off our three-part Sentinels Saga - with some FEAR AND HATE!

What can the X-Men do when noted anthropologist Bolivar Trask takes a page out of J. Jonah Jameson's book to assert that Mutants are a MENACE?  Well, their creepy, bald leader might decide to engage in a televised debate with him... which, might not go according to plan!

It's a fun story... and I hope you'll join me for it!

Also: The original Letters Pages, the OFFICIAL Marvel Bullpen Bulletins (featuring plenty - ie. too much - chatter on the Merry Marvel Marching Society), and the MIGHTY Marvel Checklist for cover-date November, 1965!

  1. I don't think I know what a chortle is but when you described Xavier as wildly unsurprised that the Sentinels go rogue since Trask majored in anthropology and not robotics I think I chortled.
