STORY TITLE:
"The Great Escape"
PERSONAL COMMENTS:
There is just something about the cover to this one that makes me giggle ever so slightly. Back in the early 00’s was an Austin Powers movie with a midget Dr. Evil and a character named Fat Bastard. The moment I saw this cover again that’s exactly where my mind went back to. “Get in my belly,” is all that I think of when I look on at this cover. I mean seriously big giant fat guy who’s power is to be a big giant fat guy and Cable not even a quarter of his size with his back towards him.
This brings in mind something. How does Cable not hear the fat man coming? Couldn’t possibly be graceful and all. At what a few thousand pounds the floor could be made of cement and it would still creak like old wood…
PERSONAL FAVORITE LINE(S):
Not bad, the white trash look must be in this year.
NOW FOR THE BORING STUFF
Published: April 1990
KEY ISSUE: Not really but this is the first issue that the baby Cable and the adult Cable are seen in the same instance. Kind of cool to know that at this point Marvel hadn’t decided to make Cable that said baby yet. I guess if your picky about the 2nd Appearance of someone this is Cable's 2nd full appearance but third following the Cameo in #86 and 1st full appearance in #87

SO HOW MANY ARE THEIR K???
Currently there is a grand total of 77 graded, with 50 currently holding the top spot grade of 9.8, and of those only 8 of which are currently 9.8SS to include this one. Truly happy to be able to grab this one at a great price.
ANY PLANS FOR THIS ONE???
Not a single one. My overall goal with this entire series is to eventually get Rob Liefeld to sign every collected issue. It is called the LiefledSet for a reason and if I didn’t take that into consideration then what would be the point I guess.
DID YOU MEET YOUR GOAL???
Yep. This one was purchased with my overall goal already met. Signed by Rob Liefeld on 29 January 2011 at Wizard World New Orleans
SO HOW DID YOU GET THIS ONE???
I had seen a few of these posted between ebay and on the boards but happened to look on Comics to Astonish’s website and saw that I could make an offer. Following some quick research was able to figure out which was the cheapest listed and then offered $10 under that. Magically I got the email not even 30 minutes after sending it on the code to enter for the discount and BAM, a signed CGC 9.8 Liefeld of my very own. First SS of the group for me.
MY TYPE OF SUMMARY:
Give me a few weeks to open up the raw once I redeploy and I’ll fill this one out with my own summary.
