  1. Well I am in the same boat as you. I also got one sent to CGC and hope for a 9.4 at least In the past I have contacted Bob Polio, the NEC Art Director, so that he can make light on the different variant of the Tick #12. I have do the same for the Tick #2 uncut variant. This time I got a reply from George M. Suarez, Publisher at NEC Press. He write me this : Cool no?

So if you are looking for something in particular, just PM me. I will be happy to help you. But please don't sent me long list of comics, only several rare item you are looking for since a long time.
  10. Oops I think you're right! And those damn Comicorama. Some collect them, some not really. Et de rien Eerie, j'espère te voir sur le forum des comics Héritage.
  11. Oops totally forgot to reply to you Chespirito, sorry. Of course I can provide you this, In fact I can provide you ALL of the Héritage cover scan if you want. I will sent you a PM this weekend. BTW out of curiosity, why do you need those two scan?
  12. Hi Define! You got a lots of questions, I will do my best to answer them all I am not the writer of "Le Guide des Comics Héritages". This incredible work is the creation of 4 guys (Alain Salois, Gelnn Lévesque, Rosaire Fontaine and Jean-Francois Hébert). I met those guys and they are all great persons. This is because of them that I decide to rebuild some of the Héritage title comics for my collections. And YES this is really the BIBLE of Héritage french comics. Then later I decided to create a website for peoples that couldn't get the limited Guide. Put some of the information (with the agreement of the writers) on the web for everyone and also create a little forum for peoples to gathers, a little like this forum. As for owning the only pedigree, it can only be Rosaire that got tit This guy has ALL the Héritage french comics in Very fine / Near mint + shape. BTW I will submit some of my best comics to CGC soon, will post them here once receive. Now let's talk about print run. This was fairly low. For example the first six Héritage comic in color (Hulk 1-2-3 and S-M 1-2-3) got a print run of 1200 mostly. And considering the low quality of the paper at that time, founding one in good shape is very hard. At the beginning of 1970, the print run were at most at 22 000 copies, but were soon adjust in the several following months around 13 000 copies. In 1980, the print run were even lower, around 7500 down to around 2000 in the last years of publications in 1987. There sure are some comics variants, but not many. The one I add din minds is "Le Puissand Thor #25". One got regular gray page and the other got white page. Now that I think of it most variant are done that way gray / white page. You can see a list of ALL Héritage comics here on my website: http://www.comicsheritage.ca/evaluation_prix.htm As for why Héritage stop producing books, it was due to low sell and mostly because of the high cost of license of translation from Marvel and DC. Also Héritage were force to raise comics prices and thus most of the Héritage readers were now looking directly at Marvel and DC to get up to date story and in color. And so they stop all super heros comics except like Liaton mention, Archie comic. And yes I agree with your article about the the bias issue concerning foreign collectors preferences when they had a choice. BTW I take a look in my comics inventory and notice that I got some Héritage comics that I don't need. If you are interested, PM me. And if you need any help for translation or understang anything in french, PM me I will be glad to help.
  13. Thanks Liaton! Not sure what you mean by "sick key issue" but if you mean rare one, not really. But I think just having the full run of Avengers is hard enough BTW if you are looking for any Héritage comics, PM me maybe I can help you. I know many peoples that got Héritage comic for sale.
  14. I just discover this great article, good work! I am from Canada, Québec, and first discover as a kid the Marvel super heros via our french comics reprint of American comics. I must say that the french translation were ... strange sometime to be polite I stop collecting them in high school. Several years later I got back into collecting comics but this time I were interrested by the original in english. The french one, publish in Québec were long gone by now. The publisher (Héritage) having stop printing them and close shop. Not too long ago, french comics begin to get popular again. And so I decide to also try to get some of them. I even created a website / forum for french comics collector: Comics Héritage It mostly remind me of my childhood, but I still prefer the original over a reprint. But these are fun to collect. To date I got the full run of "Le Puissant Thor, "Les Vengeurs" and "Le docteur Strange" Funny fact here, I mention that I got the full run of the Avengers in french, well this is not entirely true. There is still #139 that is missing. This issue is particulary rare simply because the publisher stop selling the comic at #138. They still got #139 to the press but decide to throw them all to the trash bin. Only a few issue survice, Here when you found one, it can goes generaly up to $1500 and more
  15. This is awesome. Many thanks! This whole thread is full of beautiful treasure! BTW Benjamin, you just grab the best CGC set for Sensational Spider-Man (1996) from me this year, I got it 3 years in a row (thumbs u
