  1. The front cover presents well but it does look like 2 tears on the back.
  2. I'll never defend Gobbledygook but there are collectors out there who'd disagree with you.
  3. I don't get it. Sure TMNT 1 is a major Copper/Bronze key (depending on where one defines the beginning/end of these ages) but is TMNT 1 the first appearance of the Turtles? I'm told Gobbledygook 1 is the Turtles first app. (despite my issues with this book). And the market supports Gobbledygook's place. AF 15 is the 3rd major key of the 20th Century and Spidey's 1st appearance. We are essentially comparing the first appearance of the Marvel and arguably comic book's greatest superhero to what amounts to the 2nd appearance of a group that appeals to a much smaller group of collectors. Posterity is on Spidey's side and it follows that future markets will reflect this as 4.0s currently do. Get both books nonetheless.
  4. AF 15 is the better deal. TMNT 1 is not even their first appearance according to Turtles collectors.
  5. Barton, congrats on getting the MMW 16 - fantastic edition to your amazing 25 Cent Squarebound PFs collection!
  6. Can anyone confirm whether Marvel is renewing it's licensing deal with Bowen?
  7. The buyer got a great deal for that 83.
  8. CGC should be more consistent with labeling since OAAW 112's classic cover should have the designation on the label. Beautiful book that has a unique war cover.
  9. Beautiful book OV- Kubert was incredible with his war covers.
  10. Dan is great to deal with- very smooth transaction. Look forward to dealing with again. One word describes Dan as a seller: fantastic! John
  11. Looking at The Fourth World, I can't help but wonder what would have been had Kirby finished his magnum opus. Jack's work was classic and ahead of his time.
  12. Thx Shep (thumbs u - So am I correct in saying that Sgt. Rock is the only complete Whitman Bronze Age War Comic?
  13. DC Direct and Sideshow Dioramas are incredible. Here's one that I have and consider it to be one of the best dioramas ever:
  14. If that's the case, then could the 329 might be the only published BA war book with the Whitman label?
  15. Does anyone know how many BA War books were reprinted by Whitman?
  16. The Cameron cover to Web of Mystery 17 is one of the all time greats! The cover doesn't get the praise it deserves and as for Cameron himself, one of the all time greats.
  17. Did the CGC 9.8 SSWS 154 sell for a reasonable price on this past week's CC auction?
  18. Beautiful classic book Rip. That's my favorite BA war cover.
  19. Marvel picture frame war covers might make for a good CGC registry set. Beautiful book (thumbs u
  20. So is BA War in a "cool period" in terms of the market?
  21. Not looking for anything in particular. I'm just wondering why things appear to be slow in the BA war market. I haven't heard of any "big" sales.
