Benjamin Grimm Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Bought this when I was ten years old by mail order from American Entertainment and somehow managed to keep it nice all this time, eighteen years later. Really wanted the 9.8 though... Did the get the label right on it? On mine they don't list it as the variant and have it listed as the Gambit hologram, instead of the Magneto one. And they got the grade wrong too. I was hoping for a 9.8 also, but, they misprinted it with a 0 instead of the 8. The label was right, but they messed up my Wolverine #20 brown costume variant, labeled it as the Wizard World Sketch cover. I've tried on a few occasions to hunt for a copy of the X-Men 25 in a 9.8 but there's only twenty on the census so no one wants to let it go...

The X-Men 25 black and white is an awesome cover - has anyone submitted the Gold variant? I have two Gold Editions at CGC right now and a 9.8 from my last submission, plus a handful of raw copies that have some sort of flaw or another and a 9.6 Signature Series copy I picked up off eBay signed by Andy Kubert. The 9.8 from my first submission: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWL Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Thats what a 9.8 should look like. I am bored and feel like causing trouble. So I am going to ask, what is keeping that book from being a 9.9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
