 Comic Description

Up for sale is a beautiful, highly collectible copy of X-Force #1 (August 1991) from Marvel Comics. This historic copper age key issue marks the very first appearance of the X-Force team, spinning out of the New Mutants under the legendary direction of Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza. This specific copy is the highly sought-after Direct Edition variant. Because this issue features a giant wraparound cover design, the front cover art remains completely clean and uninterrupted, while the official publisher's Direct Edition Captain America logo box and the printed barcode are located entirely on the back cover of the book.
Condition and Presentation
This comic is still completely untouched inside its original publisher-issued clear plastic polybag. Visible through the back of the polybag is the highly collectible Cable insert trading card. Marvel randomly distributed five different character cards across this landmark release, including Cable, Deadpool, Shatterstar, Sunspot, and the X-Force team. While the Deadpool card acts as a popular rookie insert, this Cable card is a major favorite among classic X-Men fans as it highlights the iconic, cybernetic team leader himself. For maximum safety, the factory-sealed polybag has been carefully double-bagged and boarded. It has been stored in a smoke-free, temperature-controlled environment.
Key Information
The publisher is Marvel Comics and this is issue number one from August 1991. It is a Direct Edition with no front barcode. The key creators are Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza. The original Cable trading card variation is included and completely sealed inside.

The comic will be sent within the protective comic sleeve and special backing board as shown in the pictures supplied. The comic will be shipped with additional cardboard to protect it.

Condition

This comic is in exceptional vintage condition and remains completely untouched inside its original factory-sealed publisher polybag. The comic itself presents in as-new condition, showing bright colors and a flat surface. A close inspection under a magnifying glass reveals zero visible damage, and there are absolutely no tactile spine stress lines or color breaks detectable through the plastic. The comic safely falls into the Near Mint range. The original outer polybag shows only light handling wear consistent with age, and it is entirely free of any newsstand pricing stickers, pen marks, or date stamps. I offer returns if you are not happy.
