Hi CHG,
The lighter color between the veins is normal looking for many hostas this time of year. Cool temps and fast growing leaves can look like this and green up later. I think a ton of people are mistaking this for HVX.
The damage to the back of the leaves was from frost or cold when it was just a point coming up.
Hope that helps.
