Published in November 1988, The Uncanny X-Men #238 is best known for featuring the first full appearance and origin of the Goblin Queen, Madelyne Pryor's transformation into one of the X-Men's most formidable adversaries. Written by Chris Claremont with artwork by Marc Silvestri and Dan Green, the issue serves as an important chapter leading into the landmark Inferno crossover. Collectors also seek this issue for its distinctive "Missing Pages" gimmick, which recreated the effects of the Comics Code Authority and was later restored in subsequent printings. Based on the images provided, this copy presents as a solid mid-to-high-grade example with vibrant colors, strong gloss, and excellent eye appeal. It remains a desirable issue for collectors assembling the classic Claremont/Silvestri run or key appearances tied to the Inferno storyline.
