Owner's Description

Personal Thoughts:

Purchased as a 9.8 and cracked out for not only the signatures of Chris Claremont and Bob McLeod, but a small sketch of Cannon ball on the back for good measure.

Technically, wouldn't Sam Guthrie be the first recruited member since he was originally pitted against Shan, Daniel, Roberto, and Rahne when they fought against him?

The first time I tried to purchase a graded 9.8 copy was on Comic Link. I lost. I also lost the second time. I finally purchased my first 9.8 copy already signed and have since sold that one after this copy came back and retained the 9.8.

I met the person that I lost against at the NYCC when he had the book cracked out for signatures. Since then I have considered any time I lost a book in a bidding war to be Wallaced.

Originally this was supposed to be issue #1. Due to a delay in publishing with the new Marvel Graphic Novels, Jim Shooter and Louise Jones changed the work in progress while adding ten pages in the process Bob Mcleod worked on some of these pages during his honeymoon. The original deal was that he could ink his own pencils and Louise did not want to break that promise.
