Comparing a 9.8 Hulk #181 to a Cerebus #1 in 9.4 is a much better comparison, but it still falls short, because a Cerebus #1 in 9.8 would be a complete and total monster. It would blow away the price for any Hulk #181 9.8, ever. It would easily be a $30-$40k book. What dealer in his right mind is going to turn down a flawless Cerebus #1...if one even still exists....in favor of a flawless Hulk #181? None of them. I completely disagree with your contention that any dealer would pay more for a Hulk #181 than a Cerebus #1, raw. They would be utterly foolish to do so. They would be utterly foolish to do it for a 9.6 potential Cerebus #1, vs. a 9.8 potential Hulk #181. They might even be utterly foolish to do so for a 9.4 potential Cerebus #1. There are dealers who would pay $5,000 for a solid "9.4 or possibly better" Cerebus #1. I don't know ANYONE who would pay that for a 9.8 potential, unless it was a slam dunk, all day long 9.8...because if it comes back 9.6, they've just lost hundreds, if not a thousand, dollars. The facts are what they are: by Overstreet, Cerebus #1 is a more valuable book in 9.2, because that's as high as it goes. In reality, it trumps Hulk #181 in every grade from 9.2 on up, except for the freak grade of 9.9 (and that's a one-off total anomaly.) A lot of you really underestimate the demand for and rarity of Cerebus #1 in high grades. Outside of the bubble that is Overstreet's 2013 numbers , I don't believe a cerebus 1, 9.2 has a higher FMW than a Hulk 181, 9.2. -J. I will trade you a Hulk 181 in 9.2 for a Cerebus 1 in 9.2 every day of the week and twice on Sundays. Why? 1) I can find Hulk 181s in 9.2 with nearly no effort. 2) I can find Cerebus 1s in 9.2 only with extreme effort. 3) I will be paying essentially what the market says for a Hulk 181 in 9.2 4) I will be paying what the dealer says for a Cerebus 1 in 9.2. You may believe otherwise, but you are just wrong on this. And he's not kidding when he says "with extreme effort" can a 9.2 Cerebus #1 be found. They simply do not exist, and the ones that do (all SS, by the way), you would have to offer obscene money to obtain. THAT is why this whole "oh, well, a 9.2 Cerebus #1 sold for $2100 in 2005, and the market "declined" since then, so it's reasonable to say it could be had for less today" is beyond absurd. A NINE POINT ZERO sold for $2500 last year. 9.2 Hulk #181? I can wave around $2500 and have one by Saturday. I could *probably* wave around $2100, and have one by the end of next week. ...and an 8.5 sold for $850 THIS year. Like a few weeks ago even.. Just sayin.... Release the hounds! -J. Right, the 8.5, which everyone in the thread agrees will sell for less than a comparable Hulk 181. The 8.5, which has nothing whatsoever to do with this discussion. In other news, the earth revolves around the sun. No nuhun.Earth is flat and we are the centre of the universe!

May this thread never end....while all you folks are talking about Cerebus, you should look into other Ottawa books...Aircel is a great start.Early Keown... Stark Future was a great series... Comics Values Monthly was from here...let's put Ottawa back on the comic map!!

Hep,where you at?Any luck with the Charltons?

I would like to thank this thread for all its help,and my old fave...Anyone still awake...

Hear me snore here!!!

I am now part of the magnificent 20 000 club!

We should get Jimmers some Broons and Oor Wullie Annuals as well. Broon Bottle is a hero of mine....

Ooooh...never seen those.... Andy Capp,for UK annual.collections is really my fave...even as a child,before I really understood,I loved it...he seemed so badassedness.I and cool... I remember having a paperboy job and being very impressed when Two customers on my route cancelled their delivery because of the Citizens,the paper,decision to not carry the strip any longer. Sorry...VIZ is my absolute top rank UK comic....just pure greatness... Well,no..MarvelMan,Captain Britain....ahhhhhhhh.I love it all,and it is all so difficult to find here...I really love the black and white reprints....Sinister Stories et all and the 1800s penny comics....sigh....

I'd like option four with the two Cobra Commander figures added on Sorry guys,but never having had a sales thread or anything,I just have to do this.... thank you sir!

Glad you participated Jimmers! Glad I didn't have to sweat it out,but now have a stack of stuff ready for next time. Very happy you found something due to my offer as well.Smooth stuff,I was anxious!

Sorry,I promised my UK friends I would have a visit to their corner for 20 000... Was good times,lots to.see....
