x-men #99 - 30 Cent Price Variant

Well, just bought this X-Men 99 CGC 9.4 30 Cent Price Variant a week ago or so. Not sure if I overpaid since I couldn't find a comparable sale, but happy to add it to the collection regardless due to the rarity. One of 5 in CGC 9.4 with one copy graded higher at CGC 9.6. Only 92 graded.

Sweeet!

There's a variant thread - you should post it there!

Is that book badly miscut or is something going on in the photo?

Looks like it's off center in the slab to me.

Maybe one of the 'old new' slabs with the mylar sheets instead of the inner well?

The left edge is way off, but the right edge is almost straight.

Open it in a graphics program and using the top-edge as your guide, compare it to the bottom edge. Even accounting for some visual warping that is a big difference.
