==Listener Questions==
*I’ve wondered since I was a kid reading X-Men back in the 90′s, what was the reason X-Men #137 could be worth $2500? I’m sure it’s actually something anti-climactic, but at the time I thought that it meant that they already knew how good it was. Reprints never seem to include the important details.
*Didn’t Lee Forrester hook up with Magneto at some point on his Bermuda Triangle island base?
