Story Arc:
Cyclops makes a comment on how he does not have Wolverine’s indestructible bones. This is the first indication that Wolverine’s whole skeleton is adamantium, not just his claws.

Although Amanda will continue to date Kurt and have an expanded (supporting) role in future stories, this is the last appearance of Colossus’s date Betsy. (Understandably, as being kidnapped and held prisoner by a deranged assassin while seeing her date brainwashed into nearly murdering his friends is probably a deal-breaker for most, non-superheroic folks.)

Similarly, the brief courtship between Scott and Colleen Wing comes to an abrupt end this issue as Jean/Phoenix returns to prominence in the next issue and is reunited with Scott. Colleen abruptly vanishes, at least from this series, after this issue.

Story continues in X-Men Annual #3.
