    Since you did not open a new thread in the "Silver Age" section and the Mods have not moved this thread for you I will respond here.

    First let me say, Welcome to the World of Comic Collecting!!!

    The original X-Men (Sept. 1963 - ???)  series ran from issue's 1 - 93, issues 1 - 66 were original stories, issues 67 - 93 were reprints of the some of the first 66 issues.

    The "New X-Men" started with issue #94.

    The first appearance of the "New X-Men" was in Giant Size X-Men #1.

    The questions you will be asked are to get the proper response will be....

    1)Are there any specific characters/storylines you are really interested in?

    Some characters had their first appearance outside of the X-Men series such as Wolverine, Rouge...

    2)What is your budget? 

    3)Are you looking for raw or graded books?

    I only collected up to #150 so IMO the "Key" (disregarding storyline , individual characters or movie tie in's) books in the original X-Men series would be...

    X-Men #1,

    X-Men #4

    X-Men #94

    The other X-Men books I am partial to include...

    X-Men 2 - 13, 19, 35 and 66 (9 is an Avengers crossover, 35 is a Spider-Man crossover. 66 is a Hulk crossover)

    Any other questions, feel free to ask and ENJOY!!!

    #14 is first Sentinels. = key

    This market definitely can be easily manipulated by anyone.  Its hard to prove and almost impossible to stop.  Have to be real sharp and have discipline in this market.   CGC exploded onto the scene because it was protection from a lot of greed and manipulated books,  this hobby is known for shade and that will always be true.

    Hmm.... interesting '

    Locke & Key #1 First Print

    Not the 2nd print, reprint or tpb versions.

    Hill altered those versions.

    The 1st print was a modern masterpiece.

    Even the first 5 page preview in like 7 different books was bone chilling at the time. Something like that happened in my area (Mont Vernon, NH) and the graphic novel's aftermath was just as respectful to the victims, like it happened in real life.

     

     

    A. Moore 'From Hell.'

    that one struck me point blank.
