Original Notes:

These earlier issues were purchased out of order. It wasn't until issue 15 when I started to collect not only this series, but comic books as well. My pre-teen self scoured the internet...oh wait, that wasn't around yet. As I do today, I like to go into different comic book shops. The two that I had were on Bustleton avenue, Sansom street, and a place on Castor ave. I don't think I ever found anything anywhere else besides my original two, at least until issue 8 (*see issue 8).

A little about this issue. This was my first PGX copy I ever bought. It was graded as a 9.9. Of course, it was also PGX so it wasn't good enough. I was stilldiligently purchasing graded comic books to catch up to Bagofleas. If buying a PGX copy to get graded by CGC was a way to do it, then I had to use the means available.

After turning it over to CGC, it returned a 9.8. This was before I started to really go after signature series books. So many of my New Mutants collection were purchased graded and then signed. This just adds up, financially. After cracking this book I turned it over with a few books at my first Baltimore Comic Book Convention. I love silver signatures, as well as Bronze and I wonder if given the opportunity to have Amando Gil sign it, will I crack it again?
