I am maybe one of the few who like the Ani-Men. Nice books!!

That was a great find!!

I always found that that book a great read. NICE copy!! (thumbs u

You CAN'T go wrong with that one!!! (thumbs u

Well it's a VERY nice 8.5.

WOW Nice raw #1!!! I would say a definite 9.0 if the back and inside look like the front.

That is a great book!!

I have not checked the census in a little awhile, that is something. I have not seen a 9.6 for availability in a long time!!

Keep this up Ghost Town and I might have to get the lotion out!! As any many DD fans know #12 is very hard to come by in high grade. That White pager of yours is awesome. If you need anybody in your will to accept those DD books of yours.....twist my arm, I could oblige. (beggars can't be choosers so just your DD books would be fantabulous. ) PM me for any information your firm my need to do so.

Man that is a great looking #13!!

How do you possibly choose what to post???

You two have been busy.......VERY NICE BOOKS!!! I think DD #2 is a great cover with awesome color, yours demonstrates it perfectly. (thumbs u (I'm eyeballing a couple in the CC Auction )

+1

I thought DD was so much better when compared to his dashing role in Pearl Harbor. Helll - Oscar material compared to that farce staring Benny Boy. He was horrid in it and the movie just got under my skin upon how historically innacuarate they made that "blockbuster" love -script. To add insult to injury, of course it is one of my Wife's top five favorite love story movies. Brutal, just brutal. As for what you said rodan57.....that is a very interesting take on Matt's historical significance. Works for me!! (thumbs u

IMHO, you own nice copy of the 1st app. and origin of DD....that is what matters in my bias love for DD! Great looking colors on your book. I would love for DD to be considered more than a semi key!! But too many I'm afraid consider him a second tier Character. Maybe down the road he will get the notoriety and love that a DD fan hopes for!!

Good deal Danny. Nice break down, thank-you yet again.

So none of my other thoughts have merit to the importance of these books? Or is that more the TMNT books? ".....the Turtles in comics, to the Comic Industry, the Independent Comic Industry, historically upon the Copper Age and just the simple fact of such a low print run." I'm asking you cause you know more than anyone about the green guys and their history and I won't doubt or argue with someone that knows way more than I about a topic. (Danny and Peter right there with you on knowledge)

Eleventy billion..... I stand corrected. Well, I guess that's why I don't own either copy.

their true significance to the Turtles, True significance? Its a back cover ad. Not an appearance - a back cover ad. They are neat and all - but boy howdy going by this precedent we should all be paying through the nose for More Fun 51s not 52s. You just had to find one statement you didnt like outta my latenight ramblings. Ok here we go,..... Yes true significance IMHO to the turtles, a back cover add. It is their first app. in a funny book. Happens to be an add. I feel some turtle fans with some money, which are not true funny book fans find merit in owning. Just like a funny book turtle fan might find merit in owning. We are NOT talking Hulk 180 here....how many copies vs. 50 or most likely way less in that condition. And I'm not saying you should own them. Yes you should be paying way more for More Fun 51 n 52, if you go by this one sale. If you do, than you're a insufficiently_thoughtful_person. If the turtles were my favorite characters I wouldn't bat an eye at that price if I wanted a copy and wasn't privy to the previous few surfacings and I wanted it now. A comic price can be whatever value someone wants to pay, you know this - so who cares if $90,000 + was paid for an Avengers #4 9.6 Congrats to the owner. Steep price.....but do you think they really care, I don't think it hampered their grocery spending. Jeff's TMNT #1 9.8 is WAY MORE VALUABLE in my eyes than these books. But there is true significance to the turtles and this book IMHO. And I'm spent, night.

If Jeff's lone 9.8 went for sale and it made it's way to one of the BIG Auction Houses, they would advertise and market it to the utmost and I think it would EASILY surpass many expectations on the final price. (I know, I'd be bidding like a Mo Fo on it!) As for the Turtlemania Gold....I think that could go either way. Personally, I think it might pale in comparison to theTMNT #1 9.8. It just doesn't have the clout. I feel that with Heritage's database and connections, they did a stellar job reaching out publicly and possibly personally, to people who might not be aware of these books and their value. Moreover, their true significance to the Turtles, the Turtles in comics, to the Comic Industry, the Independent Comic Industry, historically upon the Copper Age and just the simple fact of such a low print run. I congratulate the buyer, I'm jealous, they sure are a purdy pair, I would love em.

...."who go NeEK!!"
