UNCANNY X-MEN (1963) ANNUAL #9

The X-Men stage a rescue mission to retrieve Storm and the New Mutants from Asgard. But with Storm and the young mutants under the enchantment of Loki, has the X-team bit off more than they can chew? In the middle of a stormy night, Shadowcat’s screams woke the X-Men. They rushed to her aid and Rachel Summers purged the nightmare from Shadowcat’s mind, projecting them for everyone to see. They saw images of Magik as Darkchild, Storm as an Asgardian weather goddess, and Loki scheming with the Enchantress. The X-Men recognised the psychic distress call and quickly changed into their uniforms.… Notes: This follows directly from the action in the New Mutants Special Edition #1 . The X-Men & New Mutants re-appear on Earth in Uncanny X-Men #200 . The cover is an homage to the classic Journey into Mystery #83 .
