I am creating this topic to add some missing covers and to suggest a few adjustments in the descriptions/details about a few Ultimate X-Men Vol. 1.
Ultimate X-Men #1B
Add back cover:
Update the description as this is a Dynamic Forces variant and cames with a Certificate of Authenticity
From:
Dynamic Forces Variant Limited to 7,000 copies
To:
Dynamic Forces Variant Limited to 7,000 copies with COA
Ultimate X-Men #1C
Add back cover:
Update the description as this is a Dynamic Forces variant and cames with a Certificate of Authenticity
From :
Dynamic Forces Sketched Edition Limited to 2,000 copies
To:
Dynamic Forces Sketch Edition Limited to 2,000 copies with COA
Ultimate X-Men #1D (Marvel Greatest)
Based on the release date of this edition (Jun 2011) keeping this as variant #1D in my understanding is not correct as many other variants were released before this one .
I would suggest the following:
From:
Ultimate X-Men #1D
To:
Ultimate X -Men #1J
Ultimate X-Men #1E
Based on the release date of this edition (Jun 2004) keeping this as variant #1E in my understanding is not correct as many other variants were released before this one .
I would suggest the following :
From:
Ultimate X-Men #1E
To:
Ultimate X-Men #1H
Ultimate X-Men #1F
This is a reprint from Ultimate X-Men issues 7 and 8.
Based on the release date of this edition (March 2002) keeping this as variant #1F in my understanding is not correct as other variants were released before this one .
I would suggest the following:
From :
Ultimate X-Men #1F
To:
Ultimate X-Men #1G
Update the release date: March 2002
Add Barcode: 759606900558
Update the description:
From:
Target Blue Variant
To:
Target Blue Variant
Reprint from Ultimate X-Men issues 7 and 8
Add back cover:
Update the number of pages:
From: 48
To: 32
Update the Plot:
The plot should be updated because is refering to Ultimate X-Men #1, it should be replaced by the plot from Ultimate X-Men 7 and 8.
Ultimate X-Men #1G
This is a preview edition with a smaller amount of pages than the Ultimate X-Men #1A and was oficially released before the Ultimate X-Men #1A .
Keeping this as variant #1G in my understanding is not correct .
I would suggest the following:
From:
Ultimate X-Men #1G
To:
Ultimate X-Men #1 PREVIEW
Keeping the space between the #1 and PREVIEW would keep this variant showing up before the #1A (I think ).
Add back cover :
Update the number of pages:
From: 48 pages
To: 32 pages
Ultimate X-Men #1H
This is a Special Edition, this variant has been released in October 2001 with a smaller number of pages than the variant #1A, following the release order this should be the cover F .
I would suggest the following:
From:
Ultimate X-Men #1H
To:
Ultimate X-Men #1F
Update the number of pages:
From: 48 pages
To: 32 pages
Ultimate X-Men #1I
This is a Checkers Reprint, his variant has been released in Jun 2001 with a smaller number of pages than the variant #1A, following the release order this should be the cover E.
I suggest the following:
From:
Ultimate X-Men #1I
To:
Ultimate X-Men #1E
Add back cover:
Update Variant Description:
From:
2nd Printing
To:
Reprint “B” Checkers (with no barcode)

Thank you!
This series was updated with the variant descriptions we’re currently using. The Following things have been updated:
- What was #1F is now under a different title: Ultimate X-Men Target Reprint
- Credits, all other data and variants descriptions are now up to date with our standard.
Couple of things I’d like more info of:
- Would you mind posting a photo of the indicia of the #1I “2nd Printing”?
- Would you mind posting a photo of the indicia of the #1D?
Hi Justin, thank you for the quick turn around.
I will post the pictures you have requested later today.
I also have a few more updates for other Newsstand editions, should I post in here or creating a new post in the missing topic?

I’m halfway trough correcting the entire series. I’ll be adding Newsstands here and there where they are missing. Feel free to drop them here 
Hi Justin, please see the requested pictures below, I am actually sending you a few others in case required, please note that I am following the new variant identification available in the app:
Ultimate X-Men #1D
This is why I have suggested to have the Variant Description as Reprint “B” Checkers (with no barcode).
This one has 32 pages.
Ultimate X-Men #1E
This one has basically the same identification than the previous one:
Reprint “B” Checkers
The difference is that this one has a barcode.
This one has 32 pages.
Ultimate X-Men #1F
The best Variant Description for this one would be in my understanding Special Edition
This one has 48 pages.

You said that you have updated them following the variant descriptions based on the descriptions you are currently using. I understand that, but I have some questions, if you could clarify them please:
1 - For the Ultimate X-men #1B and #1C, the Dynamic Forces covers, both came with Certificate of Authenticity, isn´t possible to add that information in the Variant description as I have suggested?
Dynamic Forces Variant Limited to 7,000 copies with COA
Dynamic Forces Sketch Edition Limited to 2,000 copies with COA
This is a relevant information as the COA is provided with the edition.
2 - For the Checkers Variant, it would be nice to have the descritions as:
Reprint “B” Checkers
and
Reprint “B” Checkers (with no barcode)
3 - I am also the opinion that for the Ultimate X-Men #1F, the previous description was more accurate than the new one:
Special Edition instead of Exclusive Reprint
This also is applicable for Ultimate X-Men #2B that was updated from Special Edition to Exclusive Variant.
These are only suggestions, I really appreciate the updates you already did. As I have mentioned I have a few requests to add a few missing Newsstand Variants, will post them below:
