  1. Thanks! And besides that Investment Comics article here were my other reasons: My reasons were: 1. I just don't have faith in WB/DC when it comes to doing a live action Flash movie. They will have only released 1 movie in 2.5 years with MOS being the last, and then there is no guarantee a Flash movie will drop in 2016. 2. Hulk is a Taurus like me! We are both born in the month of May, so I feel a connection with the character just like Batman (Taurus also). 3. I don't feel Flash will ever rise to the marketability or popularity of the Hulk. Besides Spidey, the Hulk is Marvels next most popular character. 4. Even though the Showcase #4 is the rarer book in high grade, IH #1 is still rare in a high grade in its own right. And there being only 4 pedigree IH #1's kind of makes up for that. 5. This is currently the 2nd most valuable SA book on the market, right behind AF #15. Showcase #4 may be 4th or 5th. 6. The majority of my collection is DC, so I wanted to add the mega key Marvel comic book to my collection to give it some diversity. Nice pick up. Interesting points and should be a sound investment. Overall in 8.0 for the sa I think it's still 1. Af15 2. Ff 1 3. Ih 1 4. Sc 4, hulk has a good chance of taking a clear cut lead on ff 1 sometime soon though. Also, I think iron man has been marvels top seller, even dominating spidey
  2. As long as the tape isnt archival tape. It's a blue label.
  3. The poor mans run of 2-20 with a low grade AF15. Hope to find a nice 12 or 15 next.
  4. Traded my x1 7.0 away for an af15. Remove me from this club
  5. Whadoya have the grade at? At least 6.0 (thumbs u You going to submit it? Very nice book.
  6. Clean back and spine? I'm sure a nice press will get it to 5.0.
  7. thanks! I actually sent it a few days ago to get it pressed and resubbed. i'll probably get a 50/50 vote from people saying "wth" and "yea, go for it" but hey, like you said it presents really well and I'm willing to take a gamble on it getting a higher score once its done (thumbs u Hmm did the person pressing it give feedback on upgrade potential? Only reason I ask is the pic looks like it has tanning. CGC has been knocking books pretty hard due to tanning. Either way, good luck. Nothing like that good news of an upgrade.
  8. That FF14 though, think it was docked a bit for writing. That stance has since changed. CPR that thing!
  9. Is this for sale ? It will be 3-4 months before the movie hits theaters. ha ha ha sad that the hobby has come to this If you need a G- or a VG I can hook you up right now. I have very little collector interest in the comic. At this time I don't need the money bad enough to sell so I can hold it as I feel this comic in this condition has plenty of up potential. I should have put a or a or a as I was making a funny with my post. I'm a marvel guy, no DC for me. Those 3 books you posted are gems and tough in grade. Just everything seems to be revolving around movie speculation in this hobby lately. Gets played, this avengers 55 is a prime example.

  11. And I was too cheap to pay that 1200 for a 7.0 last year
  12. Really really nice. Wow, the cover is still attached. That's amazing for this comic. Did you ever think about erasing the pencil in the "A"? You dont erase anythign on mega keys
  13. i don't collect DC. Just trolling to see if I could get the anti pressers all crazy. Troll attempt failed.
  14. pressed a 7.5 into a 9.2. pics up shortly. ow pages though
  15. Honored, wish I could own pieces of GA books and put them together for completes as the years go on.
  16. is that what you are bidding? Youre the king of franken books. It's perfect for someone who has an interior. Cover is gorgeous and its a perfect restoration candidate since it has brittle pages and needs to be married.
  17. Holy Stromboli! Quite the trio! Seeing group shots like this makes me want to quit my spidey run and go for the big ones
  18. WHAT THE F******************************************************************************************************************************************************************* is all that i can say after trying to search for REPRINT on the label.
  19. I thought I had the nicest ASM 4 8.0.... this sure does give me a run for my $$$ No kidding, just a beautiful book with great color, a pretty spine, nearly perfect PQ, and a strong cut. Steve, long time no talk. Hope all is well!!

  21. Simple for a 9.8 WBN 32. Buy one with a misswrap having the white spine and face job it. Preferably a 9.4 with a couple light ticks.
  22. Thanks guys. This is a 7.0-ish looking book that is super flat and appears to have been hardly read, if at all, but likely not handled properly as evidenced by a small missing triangle on the bottom corner back cover and a one-and-a-half-inch long vertical tear, also on the back cover. The white pages sealed the deal for me. Happy to be a co-member of Club JIM83! Nothing like a key that presents great and is sitting in a 5.0/5.5/6.0... Those are the best kind
  23. Looked solid and clean for a 5.0, I think it went so high on the pressing expectations. It would need to get to a 6.0 to be worth it.
