  1. I was hammered on the boards when I showed the stamp Eastern Color File Copy. Every kind of conspiracy theories that this book had been compromised by Danny D and his minions. One of the best was the married cover claim plus the trimmers. Ok the book came back and my $40 investment has paid off regardless of restored or not. CGC says that the bottom of the cover was trimmed and some small amount of color touch by an amature not a professional. However it is the 2nd highest graded PLOD and the 3rd highest graded book (among others). I still maintain that the stamp is authentic and that the restoration was done elsewhere. Why some insufficiently_thoughtful_person would tamper with a Near Mint book is a mystery. So disappointing to me I missed the crease on a $200 off 50% book so I got a 6.0 for $100 This is another of the books I got from my LCS that was part of an original collection The other books were ASM #35 7.5 ASM # 46 9.4 ASM #59 9.4 ASM #65 9.2 ASM #91 9.2 ASM #48 8.5 ASM #72 8.0 The best one was an amazing surprise FF #72 9.6 Second Highest graded one out of 19 books I have one more to send in a ASM #73 My buddy managed to get a ASM #6 6.0 and ASM #129 9.8 Wow!!
  2. Your correct I got it graded because I really like the cover. It was the only one I had seen at a LCS. I might look for a higher graded book and send it in, meanwhile this might be a present some time to a collector who would appreciated it. On the lighter side the WD #4 I did real good considering my investment PS I really wish the 19 came back better, but the back cover was not up to par
  3. Back from CGC and one from Ebay Cool SGT Fury with Ayers autograph
  4. Finally got a Modern Order back....
  5. Where is everyone finding the variant 100s covers... com on help a guy out
  6. Finally got some of my books from 12/31 long long wait but worth it. Some spot on grades and some not so.... all in all I'm happy with these books the spider-man books from the same collection that my 9..6 FF 72/ BOTH 9.4 ASM 42/ASM 56 wish I had these in to send in during DEC at fast economy
  7. I too am also drawn to the letters in particular to the Silver Age. When I was younger I wrote an number of time to Marvel when they actually sent back the blue cards or No prizes (I have3). Also I think it is one of the strengths of the Omnibus series to reprint the lettlers pages. I remember that one in #50 I read it just a while ago and the one in #53 when reading the new Spider-man Romita Omnibus. Thanks for sharing and I'll try to find one that really impacted me
  8. Looks like I will not be able to post end of year books for a while, CGC says they were/are 5 months behind. So when my books start getting grading they will be still 5 months till they show up... so Dec means Oct
  9. Barbed wire, which he had, and electric fences are really only effective against an intruder that feels pain. Zombies will just eventually knock them over under their mass and walk through. Never mind the massive amount of constant juice needed , extensive wiring and maintenance necessary to make it even remotely effective. Having installed a few hundred feet of fence I can tell you that a fence the size you are talkIng about would have taken them years to build just to get overrun anyway. His power comes from an ancient looking gas/diesel generator. It was shown in episode 1 or 2 the same episode where Darryl takes the horse without asking and Rick goes to apologize. Herschel is pouring fuel into it as they speak. (thumbs u
  10. Here is a question we know from the trailer that the farm is overrun but if Herschal has electricity why didn't he just put up electric fences? Bigger question where did he get his electric power?
  11. Personally I thought it was the best of the series by none... what a great smack down with you know who vs he who will not be named
  12. I've been waiting for these LCS finds that I sent into CGC back in early Dec under Fast Track Economy and they did not disappoint. OMG ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^
  13. I really wish I lived in Florida, recently retired on a pension, but looking all the time for a nice hobby job
  14. Posted first in PGM.. then found out that it might have a direct link to Easter Color Press OMG
  15. Agreed. I am wondering why they are not at least repeating the current year's episodes. Going through so WD withdrawal, and I just read TPB #15, and was a little underwhelmed. I don't have that trade yet... I would imagine they will throw some repeats on after the first of the year. Just another reason why you need to run the dvd recorder on Sundays
  16. Todays purchases from my LCS from an original owner collection.... part 2
