All New X-Men #1 Blank Sketch Variant (2012) CGC 9.8 Signature Series comic book, which has been signed by Stan "The Man" Lee, the late Marvel Comics legend and co-creator of the X-Men with Jack Kirby back in 1963!!

This incredibly rare edition was especially commissioned by us and Stan Lee added his trademark "Excelsior!" quote to the cover!!

It has been professionally graded by CGC, the largest independent comic grading company in the world, and slabbed in a sealed protective case.

The grade is guaranteed to be high investment grade 9.8 (NEAR MINT/MINT) and this is a yellow label CGC Signature Series, which means that an authorised CGC representative witnessed the signing and inscription and this also acts as a Certificate Of Authenticity.

As soon as the comic is signed, it is removed by a CGC authorised party and submitted straight to CGC for grading and encapsulation, guaranteeing the authenticity of the signature and inscription.

You can check the validity of this item and the signature and inscription by entering the 10 digit number on the label at the CGC comics web-site.

There are no cracks on the case. Any glare is just the scanner on the CGC case, which can cause reflection.
