Who was the mastermind behind Xmen 1?

The Xmen 1 is an American comic strip team with a revolving roster of mutants born with superhuman abilities. The group was founded in 1963 by the writer Stan Lee, and Jack Kirby illustrates it.

Since this issue got out, it has spawned dozens of popular characters, spawned countless spin-off titles, and generated toys, animated series, feature films, and more. An ironic amount of popularity given that sales of the comic initially lagged far behind other Marvel titles, to the point where it reproduced for a few years before being refreshed with a new casting in the 1970s.
