You have never seen a super-villain like the Blob!!
Professor X detects a new mutant and sends the X-Men to investigate. They arrive at a carnival and encounter the Blob, a very fat sideshow attraction who can bounce bullets off of his malleable hide as well as anchor himself to the earth and become immovable. The X-Men bring him back to the mansion as a potential member but the Blob spurns their invitation and returns to the carnival. Realizing that the Blob knows their secret, the X-Men lure him back to the mansion where Xavier wipes his memory.

Last issue, while battling Magneto and his evil mutants, Professor Xavier was injured and seemed to have lost his great mental powers!
With Xavier's mental powers gone, the X-Men try to decide how they will function without his leadership. Trying to ferret out the X-Men, Magneto has the Toad enter a track meet where he leaps to victory. With the crowd turning hostile due to the Toad's amazing abilities, the X-Men arrive on the scene to capture him. Magneto snags the Angel and whisks him away to Asteroid M. In an attempt to trade the Toad for the Angel, the X-Men arrive on Asteroid M where they battle the Brotherhood once again. On their safe return to earth, Xavier reveals that his power loss was a ruse to test his students.
