Alpha Flight #45 - Published 30th December 1986 The funeral for a fallen member becomes complicated when magical gods become involved! 9.0 Grade - Very slight wear beginning to show around the staples and stress points owing to the comic being opened and read (carefully) two or three times and stored away with some care. For American comics, most of the cover lustre still remains and for British comics the cover should be flat, uniform creamy or off-white with only a few very minor stress creases at the spine. For American comics, only the tiniest spine wear at the top or bottom but no cover marks, no tears, no prominent creases (perhaps 2mm and quite hard to spot). The pages can be creamy or off-white but in no way yellowing and with no darker page edges. For Very Fine, think simply Very Sharp.

Alpha Flight #62 - Published 10th May 1988 A deadly plot tied to a grieving father forces the heroes to balance compassion with duty before vengeance consumes an innocent. 9.0 Grade - Very slight wear beginning to show around the staples and stress points owing to the comic being opened and read (carefully) two or three times and stored away with some care. For American comics, most of the cover lustre still remains and for British comics the cover should be flat, uniform creamy or off-white with only a few very minor stress creases at the spine.

West Coast Avengers #27 - Published 25th Aug 1987 The West Coast Avengers' war against Scorpio swings into high gear! 7.5 Grade - Very slight wear beginning to show around the staples and stress points owing to the comic being opened and read (carefully) two or three times and stored away with some care. For American comics, most of the cover lustre still remains and for British comics the cover should be flat, uniform creamy or off-white with only a few very minor stress creases at the spine.

Alpha Flight Annual #1 - Published 17th June 1986 As the team takes some much-needed time to rest and relax, Gilded Lily returns! 7.0 Grade - The basic minimum for most collectors but depends on your budget! This is a comic with wear showing on the edges or stress around the staples. Still clean and flat with a small mark or cover writing but I do mean small. Pages may be yellowing slightly but no brown edges. Above average, read a few times and stored away with at least some concern. A staple may be detached but, if that' the case, the rest of the comic should appear Very Fine. For British comics, a little more wear on the spine and cover is permissible and there may be some corner curl evident. British comics are all shapes and sizes so corners and edges suffer more. Again, think that this is a comic that has clearly been looked after in its history.

X-Men Classics #3 - Published 29th Nov 1983 Reprinted from Uncanny X-Men #62 Having recovered from his battle against Sauron, Angel learns from Havok and Lorna that the X-Men went after Karl Lykos at the Anderssen residence. There, Warren finds Mr. Anderssen and learns that the X-Men subsequently went to Tierra Del Fuego, going after Anderssen's daughter Tanya who had foolishly gone after Lykos who went there to die. Finding Tanya, she explains that Lykos died and tells him that his fellow X-Men had gone down below the icy cavern to find the body. Warren flies down and finds that the cavern leads to the Savage Land, where he is attacked by Pterodactyls. Struck by one of the dinosaurs, Warren plummets to the prehistoric jungle below. The fall is near-fatal, and the dying Warren is found by a frog-like humanoid named Amphibious and his master, a silver-haired man called the Creator. The Creator pronounces that Angel is dead and believes that even death is not reversible by his own scie

X-Men #105 - Published 16th Aug 2000 Betsy and Warren are attacked in Warren’s NYC penthouse, which is left in ruins. The two telekinetically jettison themselves from the building and crash land in a construction site in Hoboken, New Jersey, where they are attacked by the Twisted Sisters. The five sisters have been hired to kill one of them, but they do not specify which one they are after.
