Of a comic book I want to put up on eBay, after I did Bible study.
This is X-Factor #1 from February 1986. In it, the original X-men get back together and form a "company" that advertises that they exterminate mutants (like they are--people who are born with superpowers of some sort that usually don't turn up until puberty), but instead of exterminating said mutants, take them back to their headquarters to train them in the use of their mutant powers--just as they were trained as teenagers by the mutant known as Professor X.
It was a good series, as I recall, but it went downhill at one point due to the turns the story took (that last part is my opinion), and after I had stopped reading it the original X-men that made up X-Factor rejoined the current X-men and "X-Factor" became a government unit (anyone who knows better feel free to correct me).
Now, I'd like to go put it on eBay. After that and re-listing the other things I might put on my raincoat and get the mail--or wait until tomorrow to get the mail.
Hope that all is well with you in your part of myLot land!

X- Men
Was that the one with Patrick Stewart in it as the boss.
Wolverine is in it too.
I think I saw all the films.
So I would love that magazine most likely.
Can I ask, if you put it on eBay how much would it cost?

Well, X-Factor is made up of the original X-men, that started back in 1963. Then the X-men were Warren Worthington III/Angel,
Hank McCoy/Beast,
Scott Summers/Cyclops,
Robert "Bobby" Drake/Iceman,
and Jean Grey/Marvel Girl
There was no Wolverine or Storm or Nightcrawler anyone like that.
I wasn't able to put it up for sale today, but when I do (probably tomorrow afternoon) I will start the auction at $1.25. US.

That is quite a low starting price for a comic that old.
The original X men you mention do ring a bell with me for some reason.
I think I might have read comics when I was younger with them in it.

It's from 1986 and you have kept it intact so well. That's incredible! I have heard that such old comics sell like hot cakes on eBay. I hope that it sells and you make some good money.
