*Marvel: A Nifty Nineties Triple-Threat this update, as we venture out of our vintage zone to present the first appearances of a trio of characters who defined the decade of big hair, implausible musculature and a superabundance of weaponry! First up, New Mutants #87, the first full appearance of Cable, the telekinetic mercenary who was sent back from the future to prevent his present becoming the X-Men’s past. Or something like that. This VF/NM pence copy (£40) has excellent white pages, and only the tiniest spine roll precluding a higher grade. Following on, another New Mutants, this time #98, with the palpitating premier of everybody’s favourite Merc-With-A-Mouth, Deadpool, as well as the accompanying debuts of the delightful but deadly Domino and the villainous Gideon. This is a Fine cents copy (£50), in decent shape but with light label residue at the upper cover corner. Rounding out, Uncanny X-Men #266, with the least plausible French accent since the cast of ‘Allo ‘Allo, the debut of Gambit, soon, if rumour is to be believed, the star of his own movie franchise! (As soon as anybody works out exactly what his powers are.) A very decent VF pence copy here (£50). SORRY, NEW MUTANTS #98 HAS NOW SOLD
