Why didn Iceman appear as a guest-star during JBs run on X-MEN?
Except for the funeral scene in #138, Iceman was the only original X-Man not to find his way back into the fold even as a guest. Was there any particular reason why Iceman was passed over? JB: The simplest reason of all. As I discovered in my days working with him in THE CHAMPIONS, Iceman is surprisingly hard to draw. It was not until HIDDEN YEARS that I “found” a version I was happy with.
