This was the background on my phone for a long time (though the version I had was virgin and didn't have any of the trade dress on it):
I met Mike and Laura Allred at a con once. Doc had the original for that one for sale; I didn't even ask what he wanted for it because I know whatever it was I couldn't afford it.
I didn't really get a chance to chat with him -- he was looking over somebody's portfolio and I didn't want to interrupt -- but they both signed my X-Force #116 and I got to chat with Laura a bit. (She said, "Oh, this is the one where we killed the Code!" and I said "I know; thanks for that.")
Years later, as I was leaving the theater after watching Deadpool 2, I joked, "I wonder if my signed copy of the first appearance of Zeitgeist is worth a lot of money now."
