New Mutants Fan Favorite Legion Debuts At Heritage Auctions

New Mutants books have calmed down quite a bit as of late. Well, not #87 or #98 for obvious reasons, but other debuts in the series have come back down to earth a bit. Still, they are highly desired. That includes the debut of Legion in issues 25 and 26 of the series. Featuring cover and interior art by iconic artist Bill Sienkiewicz, this mutant debut is actually one of the hardest to get in great shape since they feature darker covers and, frankly, were read a bunch by the people who bought them. Taking bids at Heritage Auctions today are CGC 9.8 copies of both. Each is over $100 at bidding right now, but it would be worth it to try and snag the pair.
