Guy at a con in 2018 told me something I still think about

Back at a small convention in Cleveland, this older collector saw me looking at a beat-up copy of X-Men #137 and just said 'that's the one where Jean dies, kid - but she gets better.' He walked away before I could even ask him anything. Has anyone else had a random encounter with a fellow fan that just stuck with you for years?

I read somewhere that X-Men #137 was actually supposed to be Jean's final goodbye, but the editors changed their minds later. It's wild how fans remember those little random moments, like that guy just dropping a spoiler and walking off.

Cleveland always has the weirdest con moments, I swear. It's like those brief interactions with strangers hit harder than any planned conversation because they feel almost accidental.

Ngl @jadej50, those accidental moments are way more memorable to me than planned ones.
