(6) SPIDER WOMAN #50 to SS at ECCC

This is the last issue and from my knowledge Arthur Adams suggested Ann Nocenti to pose on this cover. I thought she was the Spider-Woman but found out later she is posing at the bottom in a Tigra suit.... Ann Nocenti took over the editor position for a time at Marvel after this run of Spider-Woman. This is a definite 9.8 candidate and I am going to have Annie grace this with a signature at ECCC......... PS...doe anyone else get the EBAY feeds from random sellers at the bottom? I don't eve

(5)THE TREE OF COLLECTING

I love Marvel, DC, Image, IDW Eclipse and others....... all add value for all are of equal importance to me...Now and Then.Please note the Speed Racer car and the merman surfer dudeI have always loved BOOKS. Since I have been collecting...non stop from 1979 (I would say earlier But before it was more of a chapter of adolescent reading). My point is simple....I reflect on my filing cabinets of books and still find the same thing. I Love PASSION. Alan Moore was huge to me and Frank Miller...thos

(4) 1st and 2nd App. of Howard the Duck Fear and Man-Thing

I love Howard the Duck. He is a character. I believe Howard is the first Marvel super hero movie. Howard the Duck described the times perfectly and his cigar makes me laugh I had these submitted by Twin City Auctions (Torrey goes to most shows and I HIGHLY recommend his services). Frank Brunner and Val Mayerik were attending the same show. I opened up the two and both came back 9.8 SS. I believe the Fear #19 (1st app. of Howard) is the only SS to date. Either way I am very pleased to add a bit

(3) PHANTACEA Dave Sim pre CERBERUS

I bought this when it came out for some reason that it was interesting. I have never read this book. I am not a huge Dave Sim fan but he has had a HUGE impact within the independent comic book industry. Cerberus #1 is one of the top copper age books. I did not know this at the time but found the cover interesting. I would ride to a comic shop (sometimes with my younger brother) and the ride must have been 9 miles. Saturdays were the days when I got my money from mowing lawns and went to Stella

DOING 30 for 30 SHARING AND LIVING GHOST RIDER 1

WAITING FOR STANLEY SS This is something I have never done. I want to, I appreciate so many opinions and excellent minds in this SPACE. My first journal of the day is this, I enjoy getting SS books and find that, in time, an SS will surpass a universal grade. I pay attention to the older folk that attend Comicons.....They are so important to my collecting. In 40 years....which will be more admired? An SS or a standard universal? Here it becomes not about anything but env

HELP ON EBAY SELLING...PLEASE

99 cent books people get TOO good of deals For the first time I tried the 99 cent deal and found it was amusing. When I play a 99 cent game for an item I mean to get it...not to wait and have 5 watchers towards the last hours and finally bid. I paid $18.00 for that slab or EVEN more if it is 1979 and earlier (standard).....and here I am selling it for $5.50. I do not mind that as much as having 7 watchers waiting for a 99 cent book...I was going somewhere else with that. Why did I submit

THE ADVENTURES OF PUSSYCAT MARVEL SA 10/68

Robert Crumb debut his underground book Zap in late 1968. I wonder if this Marvel book might be a staple for Independent creators. P.C. the Pussycat......funnyAs I looked inside the book, the bountiful and bouncy Babe is startling even in our generation. Wally Wood and Bill Everett were involved as well as Stan Lee and his younger brother Larry Lieber. Frank Zappa has his own front page spread. A very cool book and this book seems to me to be an 8.5 to 9.0.....Even an 8.0 would be Great.

ALPHA FLIGHT 9.9 SS

I submitted this 9.9 to NY Comics for a double SS. I have the two 9.9 books for the sole purpose of submitting one for an SS. There are 277 9.8 books with 8 SS and only 1 universal and SS at 9.9. A total of 491 books have been submitted (I am sure there are MANY more out there not yet submitted).. In my late teens Alpha Flight intrigued me the most of any Marvel series. I can recall reading them excitedly and truly enjoyed the series. I will slowly submit my books but I truly want SS book

Also a BIG thank you for the CCS Service (Matt) as I had my FF 48, DD 1 and IH 181 pressed to either insure a rise in grade or to stay the same...SCARY......A great service I recommendThis year I decided to open up some of my more special older books to get sigs for.

FF #1 SS MY # 10 FAV.

In a previous journal I wrote about a man who NOONE should trust on EBAY (I will call him Bijou). This book was so misrepresented and I submitted it years back with my first coupon to receive a Restored 6.5. I am over that and learned a Big lesson though I love that I got FF #1 and Hulk #1 (both restored) and by the Bijou Baby person. I am writing this for two reasons. The important one is that this book dropped one whole grade from a 6.5 to a 5.5. I will call CGC tomorrow to get notes on it

FF # 286 KEY ISSUE

ONLY 2 SS books out of nearly 50 universals I went to ECCC this year and got Kurt Busiek (I also wanted Denny ONeil) to sign this book. Kurt is the man who brought Jean Grey back to life. I just posted it on EBAY to sell but I am reluctant to maybe Comiclink it....any ideas? To see old comments for this Journal entry, click here. New comments can be added below.

TIM VIGIL ARTWORK SS

On front and back of the Walking Dead variant sketch cover (#75) I had 2 of these books to get original art on. One was for Tim Vigil and the other for Joseph Linser. They both came back a 9.6 but I am very happy with them. I put green tape on the "F" to not offend some people. I love Vigil's style...one of a kind To see old comments for this Journal entry, click here. New comments can be added below.

NEAL ADAMS and Denny ONeil. Green Lantern #76 SS ECCC

This is a special book I previously bought this Green Lantern for the sole purpose of getting it SS from ECCC. When I was with my daughter, brother and Tnerb we went to him first as the lines were mellow in the morning. Neal asked if I wanted it personalized and I said Yes, To RONNYLAMA...he had a hard time trying to spell it out and commented "You're starting to Scare me" He has a wit I enjoyed....On Sunday Denny O'Neil Finally showed (he was not feeling we

ECCC Master 3 TREAT

Denny ONeil, Larry Hama and Gerry Conway The biggest highlight I have ever had happen to me happened on Sunday at the ECCC. Denny ONeil had been sick and I had been anxiously watching and waiting for him to show. He was sitting next to Howard Chaykin. I was ready to close my orders and a gentlemen came up with 10 Star Wars #1 books signed by Chaykin. I asked him if ONeil was sitting at the table and he said he was. YES...I immediately got the kid in me to prompt a witness and LILLY (bless her

HAPPY VALENTINE 10 GEM MINT

My daughter made me a great card and Tnerb gave me the idea to submit it. I think I could persuade the graders to put a 10 on this as I will pay to "Have it Framed". The inside is the best so I asked my daughter if she could make another one with just front and back then have CGC put a 10 on it....wouldn't that BE SPECIAL....and NO It Is Not For Sale...Thoughts?

AN SS REGISTRY. ONE POINT PER SIGNATURE

No matter what the book is or how high or low the grade 1 point for every signature (perhaps more points as a percentage of the book?) I think it would be great to offer a new submission to the folks that find passions in getting signatures..COMMENTS ACCEPTED... To see old comments for this Journal entry, click here.
