Dave Cockrum penciled and Tom Palmer inked this splendid Double Splash for Pages 52-53 for The Ultimate X-Men Hardcover Guide Book. Fifteen of the most iconic X-Men are rendered by none other than Giant-Size X-Men co-creator and definitive mutant maestro Dave Cockrum, making for a truly uncanny mutant masterpiece! The artwork features the original five X-Men -- Cyclops, Marvel Girl (Jean Grey), Iceman, Angel, and Beast -- alongside latecomers Havok and Polaris, the second genesis squad of Storm, Banshee, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Sunfire, and Wolverine, as well as a headshot of their leader and mentor, Professor Charles Xavier. Spanning two pages, this artwork was originally published in Peter Sanderson's comprehensive Ultimate X-Men guidebook, which chronicles the rich history of Marvel's mutants, and was later repurposed in 2009 as card #P2 in Rittenhouse Archives' X-Men Archives trading card set. The art itself has an image area of 19" x 12" on much larger art boards. The art is signed and dated by Dave Cockrum and inker Tom Palmer in lower left. Compare this great Double Splash to the published comic book splash in the red link above.
