Is he really an Axanthic?
What do you think? I have been looking at Ax's and Googling til my eyes hurt, and he really matches up with the description; no yellow or orange coloration like a normal BP; silverish black and white hue; etc. I have been hesitant to post re: this because I don't want to seem like a newbie who thinks their snake from Petco is a Spider/Albino/het for Leucy :)
Here's a few pics of him next to my normal female..

I am just looking for your honest opinions here.

I would say super light normal. Very pretty though!
Re: Is he really an Axanthic?
Definitely not an axanthic.
Here's a picture of an axanthic with a normal for reference. Axanthics have a grey/silver coloration.

It'll be here before you know it ... I remember not too long ago when I was taking group shots of my black backs, reduced patterns, high golds, and grinning from ear to ear ... they were my "morphs" at the time and to me they were the coolest snakes in the world. Fast foward a few short years later and I'm like a kid in a candy store every day I come to work. ;)
