Welcome to the boards

Just curious, any reason for stopping at 332?

Update:  Picked up the Dynamic Forces 381 variant, and the recent 497 issue and skrull variant (still need the 1:50 variant).  Total is now up to 495 issues.

To tell you the truth, (of course, this is all IMO) the stories weren't as good, a lot harder to follow with 7 million different crossovers and titles, and...well...the fun was just kind of gone for me.  Hence I'm working my way backwards.

Funny you should say that, I actually dropped comics all together at Uncanny 351, stories weren't interesting to me. Didn't buy another Uncanny until 480, it was tough to track down the ones I was missing.

"(still need the 1:50 variant).  "

/sigh I haven't gotten one of these either. Kinda hoping they calm down on eBay after awhile.

I can't remember if 342 or 344 was my last issue. I came back to Marvel in 2002 but avoided X-men until last year.

Prices have started to dip already.  They're not where I want them to be (Buy it now of 19.99 with auctions selling for under this) before I buy a copy, but they're getting there.  Hopefully another month before prices balance out.  In the meanwhile rumour mill is suggesting a skrull variant for the upcoming x-men legacy cover... not confirmed untill wednesday, but looks legit as of now, so I'll be picking that up this week.
