you win some, you cold shower some

today, I bought issue #266 of Uncanny X-Men(the first appearance of Gambit) in excellent condition for just over a dollar. A dollar. I got home tonight, and my hot water, she is kaput.

I also got the first appearance of Jubilee for a dollar(shut up). which, isn't as financially appealing as the gambit but still excellent. I found some avengers and was crossing my fingers for a rogue first appearance(in avengers annual,um #10? I forget which, but I know what it looks like), but no joy.

I have no X-icon. that is sad-making.
