X-Men #9 is a fan favorite for bringing together the Avengers and the X-Men, with Jack Kirby's classic cover cramming in an amazing amount of action. The Avengers arrive in Europe after Thor detects strange emissions from a bomb rigged by Professor X's old foe Lucifer (making his first appearance). Professor X has also summoned the X-Men, which leads to the usual initial battle between the heroes before Professor X intervenes. After this vital first meeting, of course, the Avengers would often recruit mutants into the team. That's enough important history right there, although some fans also track down this book for Jack Kirby's famous Marvel Masterwork Pin-Up of Marvel Girl.

With only four copies graded higher in the CGC Census, this amazing 9.6 X-Men #9 boasts incredibly bright colors and newsstand-fresh eye appeal, including sharp corners and a sturdy spine. This rare high-grade item also becomes available just as Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige declares that “the whole story" of the upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars "really leads us into a new age of mutants and of the X-Men" — suggesting that the value of this original first meeting between the two super teams offers a great investment opportunity.
