Personal Notes:

I have been searching for a 9.8 copy of this for a very long time. My personal copy was the closest at one time being graded the only 9.6. Since then I have submitted a few and the first one popped up which went into Bagofleas set. This was from the keen eye of Wardevil0's submitting and contacting us.

I continued looking...and looking...and looking. My collecting goals started to change and then as I was updating my custom .5 set I decided to check in on my number one set of the New Mutants...but I was no longer #1. This obscured spot was taken over by NashVegas13. I couldn't't believe I was kicked out again...but by someone new. By someone who had no other sets. I wanted to see what he had when I noticed that the set was 100% finished.

I decided to contact him, much like I did years ago when I first started to document my books using the registry with Bagofleas. NashVegas13 and I chatted briefly through the registry and then through emails. Less than ten days...less than five (I dare say) and he offered a total stranger a gift that I feel overwhelmed by. I consider this the last book I need to complete the set only because at one point CGC didn't have all the Graphic Novel multiple Printings or the Summer Special as part of it.


A special Thank you to NashVegas13. If not for him I would still be searching.
