X-Men: Proteus collects #125-128. Chris Claremont and John Byrne are heading toward the end of their collaboration. In this volume, Moira MacTaggart's son Proteus runs amok, altering reality and burning through host bodies as he pleases. The X-Men have to cross some lines to stop him.

I like Byrne's art here better than in his Fantastic Four run, although it's pretty much the same. Claremont is as wordy as ever here, as was the style at the time. The story was good, though, and Byrne and Claremont were a great team.
