Excalibur #31
In "No Man Is an Island (But No Island Is a Man Either So It Works Out)", Nightcrawler’s solo getaway takes a bizarre turn when his flight goes awry and he crash-lands on an island with a very unusual resident—the Son of Krakoa, a living island first introduced in Giant-Size X-Men #1. Written by Scott Lobdell and brought to life with dynamic art by Dave Ross, inks by Al Milgrom, and vibrant colors by Brad Vancata, this 1990 issue blends surreal humor with the kind of offbeat X-Men charm that only Marvel could deliver. The cover, also by Ross and Milgrom, captures the absurdity perfectly.

Nightcrawler flies off for a little R&R but crash lands on an island that is the home of (I'm NOT making this up) the Son of Krakoa, The Living Island (from Giant-Size X-Men #1). Mayhem and general silliness ensues.
