Re-listing this set. Looking at what some of these issues are selling for by these days is quite amazing.

Is that the new trend in the FS thread, to list raw books without putting a grade condition? There seems to be more and more of these recently.

Always a pleasure to do business with, highly recommended buyer!!

Undervalued book. 1st origin Red Sonja

I added this one to my collection last week. Very tightly graded 8.0, great centering with full stamp, stunning colors and unpressed book. Probably would get an upgrade with a straight resub but I don't want to take the risk of damaging it with the new CGC slabbing process.. and I don't really care about the number on the upper left, I bought the book, not the label and I love this book. This one will remain in the picky vault for a long time and will remain unpressed

Bill has bought several books and magazines from me over the years and is a repeat customer. Great person to do business with, always quick payments and smooth transactions.

Watch for Avengers #52 (BP joins Avengers) and #62 (original 1st solo BP story reprinted in JA #5) as well

Another fine example of "Buy the book, not the label" I almost did purchase a 9.0 a few months ago but finally did pass. That 8.0 is a better book

Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu 19

JIM 85,91,92

Here is my FF #9 CGC 8.0 (and unpressed too)

Still available

Re-listing this set

Missing scans added

I have three stress lines on my copy (one that is visible on scan, two that are very, very tiny) and that is it, I wonder what grade CGC would give me for this copy

Please, I repeat, I am selling these as a lot, I will not sell #5,6 individually, do not ask me.

To everybody, offers are always welcome and the worst I can say is no. However, since I got a couple PM's please note that I am selling these books as a lot and therefore I will not break the run to sell only #5 and #6 (although the opposite could be possible )

It is there

This is my personal run of the character. Lot includes Jungle Action #1-24, Black Panther #1-15 and Marvel Premiere #51-53. Most Jungle Action issues have been purchased from Todd Lange (zillaf4) throughout the years; most Black Panther issues have been purchased from board member etanick. Here are terms: People on the probation list, or that I may have on ignore, are not eligible to purchase. Raw books: All my raw books are unrestored and not pressed unless noted. Return policy: All my raw books are accurately graded and your satisfaction is guaranteed or your money back (except shipping costs) as long as books are returned in same condition as sent within 7 days of receipt. However, since I am selling these as lots, if you are not happy with the purchase of a lot, you will need to return all books in the lot. Shipping cost will depend of where you live and how you want your order to be shipped. Time payments are possible if that may help you. I do accept PayPal or international money orders.

Avengers 83 isn't the first appearance of a character, just the first published depiction of a character's likeness - as portrayed by an impostor. You might as well just go full Ween. Really now, you haven't even read the issues you're discussing, have you? In all 3 of the first appearances, the Enchantress is the one to give the Valkyrie's likeness/personality/powers to each character. In Avengers 83 she used the likeness on herself against the Avengers. In Hulk 142, she used the likeness on Samantha Pennington to attack the Hulk. In Defenders #4, she again used it on Barbara Norriss to help her with the Defenders. What in the world is the difference? Avengers 83: 1st time Valkyrie's name is used? Check. First Valkyrie's likeness? Check. Prominent cover appearance? Check. Valkyrie's looks exactly the same as in every appearance over the next 30-40 years? Check. The same would be true then with 1st SA appearance of Captain America in Strange Tales 114.. Strange Tales 114: 1st time Cap's name is used in the Silver Age? Check. First Cap's likeness? Check. Prominent cover appearance? Check. Cap's looks exactly the same as in every appearance over the next 30-40 years? Check First appearance and "first SA appearance" are not the same thing? Check. -J. Actually I do consider ST 114 as the 1st SA Cap appearance. Point being? Everyone already knew (or should have known) who captain America was when they "brought him back" in the SA. There was therefore context to the "imposter appearance" in ST 114. The same cannot be said for Valkyrie which was actually a first appearance of the character, irrespective of the subsequent ret-con. -J. It does not matter. If there was a Valkyrie appearance in the Golden Age, we would have the same discussion except to discuss which comic is the first SA appearance of Valkyrie, same as Cap in ST 114 vs Avengers 4

Points are: Overstreet considers Avengers #4 as the 1st SA app. of Captain America, not ST #114. Avengers #4 worth much more than ST #114
