This is the ONLY 9.9 Signature Series in existence!!! 1 of 1! Signed by Stan "The Man" Lee on Halloween (10/31/10) with Wolverine (as Patch) standing on a pile of dead bodies with a full moon in the background! Even the "Wolverine" logo is represented in the color orange, which is also symbolic to Halloween!
Suffice it to say, the parallelism of the imagery on the front cover & Stan Lee having signed it on Halloween is absolutely phenomenal! Moreover, this book is highly extraordinary because it retained its 9.9 grade after it was signed, and I am so proud to be the owner of this exquisite treasure!
According to the CGC Census Report, as of 6/8/2012, there is only one book graded higher; which is also a 1 of 1 ... the only 10.0 in existence. Therefore, this CGC SS 9.9 is a rare gem!
Some general facts of this classic issue is that the story was written by Chris Claremont and the cover art was drawn by Mr. John Buscema! In addition, the artwork inside the book was drawn by John Buscema & Al Williamson! Further, the awesome-looking pin-up on the back cover was drawn by Mr. John Byrne!
A HUGE shout-out goes to Darren & John of "Pristine Comics" for selling me this unique piece of comic history!

I submitted this copy of issue #2 from my personal collection, which was signed by Stan "The Man" Lee on February 18, 2012 at the MegaCon in Orlando, Florida!
I created a custom template for "The Man" to place his signature in the exact style & location you see in the image! I made sure that Stan used silver ink, to represent the battle between Wolverine and the "Silver" Samurai portrayed on the classic front cover drawn by John Buscema & Klaus Janson!
According to the CGC Census Report, as of 6/13/2012, there are two (2) copies graded as a Universal 10.0 and two (2) copies graded as a Universal 9.9! Further, there are only six (6) copies (including my copy) graded as a Signature Series 9.8! Therefore, that makes this copy the "third" highest graded and the highest graded "Signature Series!"
Some other general facts about this issue is that Jessica Drew makes an appearance! In addition, the legendary Chris Claremont wrote the story and Bill Sienkiewicz drew the back cover pin-up!

I submitted this copy of issue #5 from my personal collection, which was signed by Stan "The Man" Lee on February 18, 2012 at the MegaCon in Orlando, Florida!
I created a custom template for "The Man" to place his signature in the exact style & location you see in the image! With that said, I love the angle in which Stan's signature is positioned! It simply looks fabulous being located directly underneath Wolverine, as he is swinging on a vine while his enemies are blasting rounds of ammunition from the ground, while riding in their military style jeep with the roof blasted off!
According to the CGC Census Report, as of 6/13/2012, there are zero (0) copies graded as either a Universal 10.0 or a 9.9! Further, there are only two (2) copies (including my copy) graded as a Signature Series 9.8! Therefore, that makes this copy the highest graded currently attainable!
Some other general facts about this issue is that Karma, Bloodsport & Jessica Drew make appearances! In addition, Chris Claremont wrote the story and John Buscema & Al Williamson drew the cover & art! Further, Mr. John Bolton drew the pin-up on the back cover!
