The New Mutants #8

Oct 1983 · Marvel · 0.60 USD; 0.25 GBP; 0.75 CAD
“The Road to... Rome?”

In "The Road to... Rome?", the New Mutants and Sunspot’s mother find themselves adrift on the Amazon River when they’re ambushed by mysterious natives—only for Cannonball to capture one who defies all expectations. With their ship destroyed and the group taken prisoner, the true nature of their captors unfolds in a twist that rewrites everything they thought they knew. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life by Sal Buscema’s dynamic art, with Bob McLeod handling both the interior inks and the striking cover, this 1983 issue delivers a surreal, high-stakes journey into the unknown.
