First Class: Pencil Draft

Here is the rough outline for my ideal team of 'original X-Men'. I went with my favorite 'true' originals, Cyclops and Iceman; my two favorites from "Giant Size X-Men" #1's international class, Colossus (Soviet Union) and Nightcrawler (Germany); and second generation mutant Siryn (Ireland).

In my universe Professor X went international from the start, collecting teens from around the globe. Other background notes unique to my world: Siryn is Sean Cassidy's daughter, but he was never a mutant; Jean Grey, Wolverine and Apocalypse do not exist; time travel is impossible; and other team members (who join within the first year of the team's genesis) not seen fighting the Sentinel robot include: Sunfire (Japan), Aurora (Canada), Frenzy (USA) and Quicksilver (Romania).

Inks, and then the final colored image will follow as time allows.
