  1. Picked up a few the last 2 nights on Clink. My usual Avengers and some randoms that i thought were just going WAAAAY too cheap to pass up.

    This was the very 1st comic i ever bought and read off the stands back when i was 5 years old. One of my alltime favorite books still :cloud9:

    My brother hasnt collected comics in about 30 years but when we were kids, this was easily his favorite book. He would bring it everywhere we went so i bought it for him.

  2. And they will change again, so hang tight ;)

     

    the probablility of SC #22 eclipsing AF #15 in our lifetimes is zero

     

    +1

     

    I'd say the likelihood of even SC4 ever eclipsing AF15 again is very, VERY slim (thumbs u

  3. didn't it used to be different? Showcase 4 ahead of Fantasy 15 at one point, my dad always says that Showcase 4 used to be THE book. When did marvel jump D.C. substantually in the guide?

    What was the first year of the Guide?

     

    Maybe i'm crazy but when i was a teenager, in the mid-late 80's, it definitely seemed like SC4 was WELL ahead of AF15 in terms of a MUST HAVE key book (shrug)

    Wow!!! That is funny!

     

    I swear to god, i was 50/50 on wether to bid on that book and was like "nah, surfers probably bidding on it". I didn't have time to pm you so I just passed on bidding. I can't believe you a tually were bidding on it! lol

     

    Nice grab! That's a sweet copy! (worship)

  5. wow, those are high grade, and sounds like you got a great price on them

     

    The prices were insane

     

    Not a ton of recorded sales but most of them had a 9.6 Suscha news pedigree sale from the last 6 months. The suscha copies went for like $116-126 and most of these went for like $40-65 with the buyers premium! (shrug)

     

    There definitely wasn't any shill bidding going on with these! Most of my max bids were triple what they sold for and a couple were only about 1/5th my max bid! I always hear people say what incredible deals they get on Heritage but this was my 1st time getting crazy low prices in one of their auctions.

  6. Thats a SWEET #1 there Hulkfan! (the 3 aint too shabby either!)

     

    It's starting to worry me that i'll never get the #1 i want. I have my heart set on doing my 1-230 run all in at least 9.2. I'm getting fairly close ( i'm only missing 2 issues from #10-105) and i have a 9.2 #4 but i dont know when/if i'll ever be able to swing a 9.2+ #1 :sorry:

     

    There's just SOOO many other books i cant help but buy which makes it HARD to build up a big enough pot for a book as pricey as a 9.2+ Avengers 1. I dont really want to but i've been considering selling ALL my ASM's, FF's, Iron Mans and Hulks to get the Avengers 1. So far though, i havent found one nice enough for me to really seriously consider if/how i would buy it.

     

    I'm not at all jazzed about selling that many of my books i love to get it but if a REAL nice #1 shows up, i'm going to have a really, really tough decision to make.

     

    I definitely envy you guys that already have your keeper #1's. CONGRATS :applause:

  7. Yeah, my #85 (the melting earth issue) is one of my favorite books. It's one of the 1st Suscha News pedigree books I bought. I LOVE that book! In hand, the colors are insane! I love that damn book :cloud9:

     

    Good idea btw :applause:

     

    Favorite artists: Adams and Buscema

     

    My 5 favorite Avengers (in order): the Vision, Yellowjacket, Hawkeye, Ant-Man and Thor.

     

    My 5 least favorite(in order): Starfox, the female Captain marvel(tough call, I HATE both of them with a passion!!!), Mantis, Quicksilver and Giant-Man.

     

    5 favorite Villians: Ultron, Thanos, Absorbing Man, Egghead( :screwy: ) and Korvac.

     

     

  8. Sweet books there Sulphur Server! (worship)

     

    I'm loving the new blood in here posting their Avengers! The last few months, unless ssasemble or I posted, this thread hit page 2 by the end of the day. With you guys now, this has been on page 1 for a couple weeks without me posting a single book :applause:

     

    Keep em coming guys! Earths mightiest heroes deserve page 1 status just as much as Spidey, FF, etc. Dammit!!! :preach:
