Upon her late arrival at the mass student orientation, Kitty Pryde remarks if she had "missed the Sorting Hat"alluding to a similar scenario found in J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter books. The "Gifted" story arc was adapted in a motion comic mini-series comprised of six episodes called Astonishing X-Men: Gifted. The mini-series was created by Marvel Knights Animation and released on iTunes in October 27, 2009, and by Shout! Factory on DVD in September 28, 2010. Please use pictures to judge condition.
