Owner's Description

As a teen the first series I ever wanted to put together was the X-Men. And there were no other X-Men than the one in these pages. This goal simply eroded with time and quite possibly this goal will never reemerge. Getting point fives might make it easier, but still...that elusive issue #1 is still close to $2000.00 in that grade. Is it even worth it...should I hold out for a 1.0. In the majority of my saved searches, I have .5 saved to notify me when they arrive. some are reasonable, some I get outbid, and others are ridicules. This...not so much

One of the things that might put me over the "Do I buy? or Don't I buy?" threshold area Date stamps.. I don't know why... I just like them. It wasn't until I was taking a picture of the back of the cover to load up onto the registry that I noticed this had not one...but three on the back cover. They look as every bit as vibrant as the rest of the book, if not more so.
