I just spent 3 hours trying to find a single panel from an old X-Men comic

I was sure it was from Uncanny X-Men #173, the one where Storm loses her powers... I looked through my whole long box and my digital copies twice. Turns out I was wrong, it was actually from issue #186, a whole year later in the story. I kept getting mixed up because both arcs deal with her adjusting to being without her powers. My friend finally texted me a screenshot to prove it. Has anyone else ever been that stubbornly wrong about where a scene was from?

Oh yeah, I've done that with old Spider-Man books. I swore a fight with the Vulture was in one issue, but it was actually two storylines later. It's crazy how memory blends those details together.

Wait that Vulture fight thing actually makes me reconsider that time I was sure Venom first appeared in issue 299, not 300.
