Description: THE INTRO OF BISHOP, MALCOLM, AND RANDALL! This superb specimen was never used, just stored as investment, and it boasts amazing eye appeal; please examine the photographs, it looks nicer than you'd expect for this grade level, we were surprised and dismayed by the results of this batch of CGC submissions, as they were graded more harshly than our many prior submissions for the same Grading Service level and from the same ten-packs of unopened copies from the same sources. THIS IS AN UNREAD INVESTOR-COPY WITH PRISTINE WHITE PAGES, AND IT STILL LOOKS NEW TO THE NAKED EYE! This book is well known to fans and dealers alike, as a hot Marvel comic book featuring the cult-classic cameo debut of top characters, Bishop, Randall, and Malcolm. This Direct Sale version includes a bound-in eight-page advertising insert, which makes getting grades better than Near Mint even more difficult. It's a real treat to behold when the classic cover is unblemished by such pesky detractors as obvious creases and soft corners. It has the timeless artwork of Portacio inside the issue, which is top quality. The X-Men have evolved over the years into a major pop culture property, with hit DVD's, and massive licensed merchandise sales around the globe. It doesn't get much more "Blue Chip" than this! This incredible original first-print comic-book WILL find a new home, as the asking price is low and there is NO RESERVE! This historic comic is a real find in unrestored NM or better shape, as most copies were read, and re-read, time and time again, and with the thicker format due to the inclusion of an ad insert, it seems flaws were even more common even when they were fresh from the factory case. This copy is spectacular, as it's super clean and there are no significant signs of wear or aging, and it has precise printing registration and heavy gloss, -- you'll wonder why it didn't grade higher! Good luck finding this level of eye appeal again in the future, unless you buy a top certified gem that's far more costly.
