This copy of The Uncanny X-Men #118 is an early Direct Sale Edition market testing prototype called the Whitman Variant/Edition, which is !RARE! for this title.  The only Whitman Variant the Uncanny X-Men title birthed.  It is a higher grade potential copy, more so than the other one listed among my other items, 9.4 or better with a press and cleaning.  Your opinion matters, see the pictures.  Will ship securely, see my reviews.  Also, see seller's other items.
