Marvel Comics is set to release the X-Men: Children of the Atom box set, which contains the complete ’60s and ’70s X-Men adventures in a colossal 3600 page collection. If you’re interested in picking it up, now would be the time to reserve a copy because it’s currently 30% off in pre-order on Amazon with a release date set for March 17th. The $350 price tag isn’t cheap, but it’s a lot better than $500.

Keep in mind that you won’t be charged until the box set ships and this will probably be the max discount during the pre-order period – so lock it down while you can. If it does drop, you’ll automatically get the bigger discount. The official description and full contents of the set (via Bleeding Cool) are listed below.

“The X-Men’s complete 1960s-1970s adventures โ€” from their very first clash with Magneto through the nightmarish “Days of Future Past”! Witness Professor X train the original X-Men โ€” Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Beast, Angel and Iceman โ€” to protect a world that hates and fears them! Meet classic foes including the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, the Juggernaut, the Sentinels and more โ€” as well as new recruits Havok and Polaris! Then, the all-new, all-different X-Men arrive to change comics forever! Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Banshee, Sunfire, Thunderbird and Wolverine propel the X-Men to greatness โ€” even if not all of them survive the experience! Watch as Jean Grey is reborn as the Phoenix, the X-Men traverse the globe, Kitty Pryde debuts and mutantkind faces a frightful future โ€” as years of epic stories from an array of legendary creators are collected in one truly uncanny box set!”
