Description

✨ The first appearance of Emma Frost and Kitty Pryde — Szerdy’s exclusive on a Claremont/Byrne landmark, trade-dress-free, hand-signed. X-Men #129 is one of the most important single issues in X-Men history — the debut of Emma Frost, the White Queen of the Hellfire Club, and the first appearance of Kitty Pryde, the girl who would become Shadowcat and one of the X-Men’s most beloved members. Chris Claremont and John Byrne created two defining characters in a single issue. The facsimile edition reprints this landmark in full — and Nathan Szerdy’s Unknown Comics exclusive virgin variant gives the facsimile a brand-new cover, trade-dress-free, by one of the premier exclusive cover artists working today. This copy has been personally signed by Szerdy.

This is the X-Men #129 Facsimile Edition Nathan Szerdy Exclusive Virgin Variant — personally signed by Nathan Szerdy, trade-dress-free, the Unknown Comics exclusive reinterpretation of the Claremont/Byrne classic.

Returns & Exchange

Take your time — you've got a full six months. If a piece isn't right for you, send it back the way it reached you and we're good.

In the first 30 days your money goes straight back the way you paid. After that it's store credit, so you can put it toward something you'd rather have.

Return shipping we sort out between us, case by case. I don't make this difficult.

If something arrives damaged, or it isn't what I said it was, send me a photo within 48 hours and I'll make it right.

Email [email protected] or call 802-356-9872 — that's me answering, not a call center.

The only things I can't take back are custom or special-order pieces and gift cards.
