One of my favorite westerns.

I believe the female character said his name in the word bubble.

Truly unprofessional behavior.

Urban dictionary shows something else.

Wow, nice job. I had it at 8.5 pre-press.

It does not look like it'll press above VF with that back corner water stain, and slight color loss on the front cover right edge.

I can't see the stacking lines, but I see the spine stress and the top right corner. As is, it's pretty hard to tell unless you can get some better pictures of the book.

I looked like it's in Fine + (6.5), but that foxing on the back cover brings that grade down quite a bit. I'm not sure how much CGC would drop it, but I think VG+, or VG/FN, is possible.

I would say to check ebay sold or completed auctions, or mycomicshop.com. The books you've mentioned above are definitely keys so good job at separating them from the others. I would get any book, in its current condition that has a raw value of over $100, graded.

I wouldn't trust comicpriceguide to get accurate pricing on your books. There are probably a few decent books in those boxes. The three copies of Aliens#1 could be worth a few hundred dollars each in high grade.

Nice looking copy. I'd say the highest would be VG+. I can't imagine a book with so much staining being in FN condition.

This parts gets me. You claim you weren't always the highest paid person, and had to take less some times, but were able to afford to buy a Harley. It doesn't say it was before or after to started your business, but if it were purchased after you started your business is super messed up. You had clients sending you books and money, while a lot are still waiting for the work to get done. That Flash #1 still being worked on after 9 years is pure BS. I'd be pissed if I spent that kind of money like what the poster for Flash #1 paid, and then finding out you got yourself some new toys while the book just sat for years.

Unless that right edge is from bad lighting, I can't see it getting higher than VF, or maybe VF/NM.

I can't think of 3, but I'd easily pick these up if they were under 5.

#1 were the rage back in the 80s. I've collected quite a few of the types of books you're talking about, waiting for some day for them to become sleeper keys. 40+ years and still waiting for some of these books to take off.
