NYCC issues are In hand!

The ten issues that Tnerb did for me at the NYCC are now back in my hands.

My last journal has the full listing of everything I currently have grades on from both Baltimore and NYCC.

These ten did a number of things both FOR me and TO me.

1. Five of them were New Mutants issues that were signed and retained 9.8s, thereby adding 15 more points to my NM set. These were #19,20,24,36 and 74.

2. One was my New Mutants Annual #1 which, just as TNerbs copy did, fell to 9.6, which is highly unfortunate, since both of our copies were signed by all three major creators of the book.

3. One was my Dazzler #19 for Bob Wiacek to sign. I have just started to get these signed, so this is among the first from the set to be graced with creators scrawlings.

4. Three are from my Uncanny XMen issues. These three issues helped three different ways. They improved my score on my XMen set. One will be an improvement on the Marvel 25th Anniversary Border Cover set once its created. All three being signed bumped me back to the #1 ranking on my Mutant Massacre set!!!

I have been slowly getting my Mutant Massacre issues signed one by one in order to both regain and eventually cement my first place ranking for the set. I have now achieved enough to put me back there! This is even with my Daredevil #238 only being a 9.6! Plus, it is about to be replaced with a SS 9.6 copy for 11 more points!

The only issues for the set that I dont have signed yet are XMen #212 and #213. I will be getting 212 signed in July and I will look for a sig opportunity for the 213 at a later time.

Below is a pic of my Uncanny X-Men #210. In July, I may take it with me to the Florida Supercon and have John Romita Jr. and Dan Green added to it!
