Owner's Description

STORY TITLE:

" When the Carnival Comes to Town"

PERSONAL COMMENTS:

I can honestly say I never read this one. Before this issue ever came out Neal Adams had done a Kree-Skrull Wars in the early years of Avengers that had been reprinted. To me that was what the definitive Skrull was to look like I guess. Mean, angry, like a pointed ear Hulk and for some reason this cover just seemed to scream child Skrull. I guess based off that and my lack of enjoyment of alien titles anyways outside of the X-Men core titles I just was never interested in this one.

Big thing now though in looking back. While I may not have wanted this one in the past, it was one that I had to truly jump at the chance to own for this particular Set. In all of my searching this has been the only graded copy that I have been able to track down in over a year.

PERSONAL FAVORITE LINE(S):

I’ll find one, give me some time to read this one first…

NOW FOR THE BORING STUFF

Published: August 1990

KEY ISSUE: Not that I know of. I actually think this one is more of a filler issue honestly since the lack of Louise Simonson.

Dwight Zimmerman story
Bob Hall Pencils
Jeff Albrecht Inks
Nel Yomtov Colorist
Rob Liefeld Cover

SO HOW MANY ARE THEIR K???

Another non-key here. Because this one lacks those key stories and is more for the completionist adds the reason for the low number in grading. Total there are only 24 graded with 19 achieving its highest grade of 9.8 with a single OAK out there in a 9.8SS.

ANY PLANS FOR THIS ONE???

Yep. This is one being graded with Rob Liefeld’s signature shows conviction. For me this one’s low response is a big reason I would love to have Rob’s Signature added to the cover. Maybe if he would be willing even add a small head-sketch of Cable on the cover as well.

DID YOU MEET YOUR GOAL???

Nope, but oddly enough this is one that I am most looking forward to getting him to sign for some reason. I guess the idea of getting a low received comic signed from the cover artist for this one would show him my dedication to finishing out this Set..

SO HOW DID YOU GET THIS ONE???

This one was purchased as a set with the number 85 listed in this Set off of World Wide Comics. I had searched for awhile for a copy of this one and just never could find it. After seeing so many talk about wwcomics I figured why not give them a try. And what can I say. Prices are amazing, stock is always changing over, and they are always acquiring new items for me to jump at. Honestly can’t wait to make my next purchase off of them. Maybe a few other New Mutants once this Set is finished out.

MY TYPE OF SUMMARY:

I really need to track down a few reader copies for this one. Maybe even pass it off to the Afghani’s before I leave so they can admire it as well. Until then no summary….
