Owner's Description

"We Must Destroy the Cobalt Man". Following their battle with the Warlock, Professor X schedules some off time for his students but Scott is reluctant, volunteering to help Xavier with his experiments. The Professor, however , asks him to return some books to Jean at Metro College, hoping they will finally open up to each other about their feelings. Warren, also vying for Jean’s affections, offers Scott a ride and says they should make Jean decide between the two of them today. To their dismay when they arrive, Jean is in the company of Ted and Ralph Roberts, two very competitive brothers. Ralph, a successful scientist, gives them a tour of his cobalt research company but Warren declines, tired of the competition, and heads off to a nightclub where he meets up with his childhood friend Candy Southern. At the research lab, Ralph shows off his newest invention a cobalt armor based on Tony Stark’s Iron Man designs. He puts the armor on in a continuing effort to impress Jean but, suddenly, a bump on the head Ralph suffered earlier in the day causes Ralph’s personality to change. Calling himself the Cobalt Man, Ralph attacks Scott and Jean. Ted tries to convince him to stop but to no avail. Ralph’s new personality sees Iron man as a traitor and leaves to hunt him down. Burying the two X-men in debris, Cobalt Man heads off to Stark Enterprises. Marvel Girl and Cyclops contact Xavier who rounds up the other X-men and go to face-off the Cobalt man. With teamwork, the X-men defeat the Cobalt Man and bring Ralph back to his senses. Unfortunately, during the fracas, Ted figured Jean’s secret identity. 1st appearance of Candy Southern and the Cobalt Man (Ralph Roberts).<br /><br />This NM+ beauty comes from the Hollywood Hills Collection.
