Late to the party on Year One (have you seen what those go for?? :cry:) but I was able to  secure this nice looking book. It’s cool because I prefer the Red Ranger to the Green one anyway! 😆 I’ll just stick to the trades for the first 12 issues. I don’t know if this one will reach the status of its predecessor but it is getting harder to find. I actually found this one on Mercari.

I'm definitely tried for patience, I mean I love it and run collecting is fun, but I way overpaid for these in the excitement of run collecting... the LCS had yet another sale lol spend $50+ and get a $15 Or less free, I knew they had got most of the Phoenix run so I bought #130 & #120 and got #113 free. But now I wish I had picked up the cap 100 that would have been an upgrade :( to my current copy...

120 & 130 are only f/vf, 113 is fine

Great books! I remember buying a copy of UXM 130 at a comic show at a local shopping mall. Those were always a lot of fun. I believe I paid $7 for it, and that seemed to me to be an INSANE amount of money for a comic book. But I was on my way to "collecting", and I knew it was a first appearance of a character I liked, so I splurged. I think it was around that same time that I paid $8 or so for UXM 137, Death of Phoenix. 

And 113 is one of the best covers in the run, and a great read too!

Picked these over the past couple weeks.  Still need a #1 in 9.6.

Some of my favorite books ever! I need to get my Primer slabbed, I think it's about a 9.4 but it may be better. 9.6 is awesome, that book is tough. Congrats!

Welcome to the club!

as I have no plans for signature series for this particular book, I might take a chance and send it in for grading later this month, without a press :eek:

I kept expecting to find one in the wild, but with the 10% off eBay coupon last week, I went ahead and secured this...  :shy: little bit of a spine roll, all in all not too bad.

Nice, Congratulations @ADAMANTIUM(thumbsu  

I remember buying this copy and a couple other Marvel only 25 cent comics at a bookstore when they came out,  the total price was higher than expected when I checked out, just figured I grabbed more than I thought—after checking my receipt later, I was disappointed that I was charged $2.25 for each of them when it had the big only 25 cents circle on the covers.  Thought Marvel pulled a fast one on me. ( which they kind of did. 😆 ) —- All turned out good 😃

At least you didn't try and return them or put them back, or even complain to the store lol marvels the real culprit ha.

I have half price books noob issues in 2016:foryou: as a noob there were several issues that I pulled out of the bins thinking that I had seen them on the boards or somewhere before...but didn't commit to buy... "bookstore" stories 

This was one of them, the Nabisco variant, and a 30 cent price variant conan, which were all mid to low grade so I put them back... there was also a runaways #1 NM that my brother had heard of, but I didn't think that he knew anything about comics, I put all these back..  (:lol

Do you have a copy of the Return of Wolverine misprint with the starwars insert?  

No, I haven't heard of such.... I'll have to research that :foryou:

Is it like a mark jeweler but star wars?
