Kevin Michael McFadden was a long time CGC QC expert and main graders who passed away in 2018. His collection was then graded, labeled ( in honor/remembrance of him and what he's meant and done for comic community, as well as CGC). and sold as such. Its not a pedigree however. spreads 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevinem Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I had a friend buy this copy on my behalf a few years ago from these boards, I just got my first CGC membership and saw this post so I figured I would share mine as well. I've grown fond of all of the writing after these few years haha. Sweet Lou 14, bc and Jasonmorris1000000 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedcake Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Where do I even begin looking if I'm in the market for a raw Good to Good/Very Good X-Men 1? I don't really want a slabbed copy, partly because of the extra cost and also I just don't collect slabs. I wanna join the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedcake Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 eesh. Well I've sold a bunch of stuff and have about a 5k budget now for an X-Men 1, but starting to doubt whether I should actually do it. I'd like a 2.0 or 2.5, and think its now or never. Someone tell me to just do it and that it'll be fine Finding one is somehow turning into the hard part, go figure. Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
