The Uncanny X-Men #146 (1981) - Doom & Arcade - Elite Eye Appeal
Flawless Spine & Blazing Colors - "The Vault" Presentation Copy
$60.00
Welcome to Murderworld! X-Men #146 is a high-octane classic featuring the combined (and conflicting) menace of Doctor Doom and Arcade. This issue is a fan-favorite for its creative death traps and the "reserve team" lineup featuring Banshee, Havok, and Polaris.
This particular specimen is a "display masterpiece." It boasts a flawless, razor-sharp spine, square corners, and blazing cover gloss that presents in the 9.6/9.8 range. While it carries a light, small stain on the top left of the back cover—characteristic of honest newsstand storage—the front-facing eye appeal is absolutely pristine. This is the perfect copy for the collector who wants a centerpiece that looks like a $500 investment on the shelf, without the four-figure price tag.
Verified under The Vault Protocol. This copy has been vetted for structural integrity and color preservation. Transparency Note: In the spirit of collector honesty, we have documented a small stain on the top left corner of the back cover. Please refer to our 4th photo, which highlights the back cover specifically so you can inspect the vividness and this minor flaw personally. The spine is tight and the interior is complete. Shipped in archival-grade mylar and a rigid backing board, double-secured in a reinforced Gemini mailer for professional protection.
