Alpha Flight (1983) #33

First Appearance: Lady Deathstrike (Yuriko Oyama)

Alpha Flight #33 features the first cameo appearance of Lady Deathstrike, the cybernetically enhanced assassin with adamantium claws who becomes one of Wolverine's deadliest foes. A key Bronze Age issue from the height of the X-Men era.

Magneto, born Erik Lehnsherr (real name Max Eisenhardt), is one of the most powerful mutants alive — a master of magnetism capable of manipulating all forms of metal on a massive scale. A Holocaust survivor who vowed never again to let his people be persecuted, Magneto's mission to protect mutantkind has taken him from villain to antihero to X-Men leader and back. His complex relationship with Professor X — closest friends and ideological opposites — is one of the greatest rivalries in fiction.
