The top five grails that I own are all Uncanny X-men books: 94 - the first new X-men in series, 101 - first Phoenix and probably the only book I will buy from greggy, 132 - the last book I needed to complete my run, kudos to Steve, 143 - triple SS and 255 and/or 261 - the 261 came from MutantKeys - bought they only copies I have ever seen for sale. All of these were harder than heck for me to pick up. The 143 was signed by Byrne on my birthday. :)

 

Nice (thumbs u Your 94-143 run is the envy of all us bronze X-Men collectors.

 

It's been a while since I updated my list:

Amazing Adventures 11 - 9.8 white

Amazing Spider-Man 121 & 122 - both 9.8 white

X-Men 94 - 9.6 off-white

X-Men 15 - 9.4 white Pacific Coast The Origin of the Beast Thanks, Doc...

Yeah, but look at the centering on his copy. Besides the one I see on Heritage now, I rarely see centering as nice as his.

 

Here she is. You can judge for yourself if you would kick her out of bed for off-white pages...

I still remember the first time I saw her. It was love at first sight. I asked Mr. Highgrade if he could hook us up and the rest was history...a true comic book love story. <3

Are the 255 & 261 hard to find in high grade?
