Uncanny X-Men #130 (February 1980) is one of the most historically significant issues in X-Men history: the first appearance of Dazzler — Alison Blaire, the roller-disco mutant who converts sound to light, a character designed specifically in collaboration with Casablanca Records for a major multimedia launch that never materialized but gave Marvel one of its most enduring supporting cast members. Written by Chris Claremont, penciled by John Byrne — the legendary creative team at the height of their run. This issue also features the first full appearance of Emma Frost, the White Queen of the Hellfire Club. The Facsimile Edition reprints that landmark with new exclusive cover art — here, Nathan Szerdy’s Unknown Comics exclusive in virgin format.
