Strange teams up with Doom to save Victor’s long dead mother from Hell. Was one of the stories that really tipped me from liking comics to loving comics. Powerful story with great writing and art.

An original print would not have been bound with staples as yours has. Sorry, must be a reprint.

Good spot thanks, there is a small tear/hole on the spine. Added some additional pics.

Thanks for any thoughts.

Please and thank you. Not much to point out that the pics don’t explain better than I could. No surprises inside.

What's the prevailing wisdom regarding rusty staples? Keep them a million miles away from the rest of the collection, or bag them and box them up with the rest unless you live on a boat? Thanks

A healthy part of your complete collection!

Not much can be said for Marvel's Frontier division, but I do dig this embossed, glow-in-the-dark skull.

Love this cover, gonna have to find one that isn't falling apart.

To be fair though the covers do look a lot alike. That sucks, hope you get your book.

Smoke 'em if ya got 'em!

OP contacted the appropriate people in the appropriate manner and was told; "we stand by our grade, go scratch" It's nice that you're going to look into this, but customers shouldn't have to come begging at the public forums for this kind of thing. As customer service explained to you, they stand by their grade. Now that you've been forced to publicly call them out hopefully you'll receive service instead of being told you're wrong and to kick rocks. My quote was from a thread regarding another recent grading issue.

Never knew about those, thanks. Unfortunately none of the dropdown links in that Navigation group work for me. The galleries and calendar links work but the dropdowns are dead to my iPhone.☠️

Nothing is exactly the same, but still ...just lazy.

Looney Tunes 16 clocking in from 1943 as my new most oldest book. The 1st Pussycats will need an upgrade someday for sure. And I can't find Blue Ribbon 3 or Adv of Mighty Mouse 6 on the census at all so that's fun. As for the Australian Duck reprint, tell me flat backgrounds don't just hit better on newspaper stock?

Got this vintage French rust, I think it might have a bit of comic book tho. 🤔 C'est juste Schtroumpfy!

Drac bit off a little more than he could chew with Surfer, & took some of the book too.

Yeah but how much for the gem 1/1 Variant, where you and a friend get to personally take part in the burning of the other 999 books? There is no bottom I guess.

Just grabbed this at a local because what else is an electrical engineer who just moved to Jersey supposed to do. Don't see it in the GCD. They have other pamphlets like this listed by this publisher tho, wonder if it's because they messed up the publisher name in the indicia.

Tried to buy a book from France that shows up on eBay search & in seller's shop. Seller says item was already sold and eBay duplicated the item and refunded me. Is this a legit error?

Yeah, this is how I made my way here. I often see these boards as a top search result when I Google. Maybe I'm just too not-connected.

Everyone makes mistakes.
