  1. As it happens, I have two awesome pieces, both Adlard. I would love to own a Tony Moore piece one day. I will share soon! Also, I am in Salt Lake City and heading to the Con. Anyone else heading to the SLC Comic-Con? (Don't sue me San Diego).
  2. I followed the forum for a long time, and just lost touch with it for a while. I've continued collecting, and have a huge WD collection, just looking for some of the books ive missed. I posted a banner a while back, but had a hard time getting good images of my slabbed books for the image, and I included an image of a slabbed book from another grading company, and received a fair amount of grief over it, so I stopped following the forum for a while. In any case, I am back and would love to gloat about share my collection with the board!
  3. Long time listener, first time caller. I know this is not a "buyers" forum, but as this is specifically Walking Dead related, I wanted to see if anyone on the boards may be able to track a couple rare-ish books down, or may have them for sale? I am looking for the Wizard World Ohio Mike Zeck sketch Walking Dead 1 issue, as well as the Wizard World Portland Walking Dead 1 2nd print books. I am a long time Walking Dead collector and huge zombie fan, and I am trying to collect every issue of Walking Dead, so please...if you have them, I am interested, please PM me.
  4. Totally disagree, this is a Walking Dead thread, not limited to the book only.
  5. +1 I totally agree. We already know Negan is heartless. I just hope that Ezekiel is a better class of villain/hero/frenemy.
  6. Walking Dead 12 - $57.50 http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Walking-Dead-2003-12-1st-Printing-Robert-Kirkman-Tony-Moore-Adlard-NM-/290830342237?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item43b6d6d85d Walking Dead 15 - $54.99 http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Walking-Dead-15-in-9-6-to-9-8-1st-PRINT-/110987050692?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item19d757fec4 Walking Dead 21 $44.95 http://www.ebay.com/itm/WALKING-DEAD-21-1ST-PRINT-NM-MT-9-8-STUNNING-COPY-KIRKMAN-ADLARD-MOORE-/280985820191?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item416c0f5c1f For ebay prices, you can't always assume that one sale means that comic is worth that much. Case in point: Walking Dead 27 CGC 9.8 sold for $630 yesterday. Congrats to the seller! http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Walking-Dead-27-CGC-NM-MT-9-8-1st-The-Govenor-Martinez-Woodbury-27-/281050486652?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item416fea177c&nma=true&si=c2ihGa8bM%252FY7nTEg%252FWlBpvWRe40%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Uh, same book is currently on sale for $379.80. Why would you bid more than $379.80 for the book above? Maybe this book below is a great price? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Walking-Dead-27-cgc-9-8-1st-Governor-Woodbury-Kirkman-Adlard-amc-/251211051923?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3a7d587393 Other sales on ebay for this same book are even lower. You have to look at the trend of sales on ebay, not just one sale. I totally agree, but am still thinking about jumping on that train while prices are high. I have some dupes. that I would consider getting rid of, if the price was right.

  8. Almost all of my WD books are raw, some with duplicates. How would you suggest to appropriately value them? I have looked at recent eBay sales and some raw non-keys are selling for $40-60. Overstreet is clearly not the authority on books this recent. Any suggestions?
  9. Damn nice page, I was 2nd in line behind you for that one, but it was gone so incredibly fast.
  10. Ok guys, I need someone to educate me. So many boardies seem to have vast CGC collections, which must cost a mint to have done. I have quite a few books I would consider slabbing, but my LCS says its about $50 for 1 book, $20 per additional book. So it would seem that a bulk order may be the best option, however that is not including the fast track so I should have my books back right about the time Carl becomes a man. What is the best way to go about having your books slabbed for a reasonable (I know its not cheap) balance of time and money?
  11. I love the conspiracy. I went back and re-read 95-105 to see if I missed anything, and I am certainly suspicious.
  12. I've only been on this site for a little more than 2 years and I've seen at least a half-dozen threads on his scam auctions. I mean, awful. Please add him to your block list on eBay. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=5976592&fpart=6 http://cgcforum.gpanalysis.com/cgcforum_thread.asp?pagenumber=47&ThreadID=4688592&forumID=4&threadName=Ebayer+to+watch+out+for%3A+bijoubaby05 http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=6061764&fpart=13 http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4688899&fpart=47 Holy balls, who is this clown! This is a total scam and this guy needs to face some penalties. What a jerk, he's out to ruin this awesome hobby. In other news, can anyone pull back the curtain a bit on PGX? Where are they located, company history, controversy ect? I know that the comic community does not think well of PGX, so im certain there must be tons of info out there.
  13. +1 , I totally agree. The black label escaped me for quite a while, but I finally picked one up this last fall to complete my collection!
  14. That's fair enough. I want to be clear that I don't care for PGX, I think they are a joke. While we may disagree on grading on raw books, a professional grading society should know their mess. CGC certainly has some slight disagreement between graders which can result in a 9.2 vs. a 9.4 but that is so incredibly slight. PGX seems to be the amateur hour of professional grading. I intend to get this book CGC'd along with a couple of other books at the same time.
  15. Out of respect for the boards it should be removed I'm fairly new to the boards, so please indulge me. How is showcasing this book disrespectful?
  16. Missing a few: ASM 1, 50, 121, 129 Hulk 1, 181 TOS 39, 52, 57 X-Men 1, 94, 101 FF 1, 52, Iron Fist 14 Did get FF 48-50 and Silver Surfer 1 recently, but have a ways to go. That FF48 you got recently was sick (and I haven't forgotten about that avengers 1). We'll see what happens in five years.... I picked up quite a few books in the last 2 years: ASM 129 Hulk 1, 181 TOS 39 X-men 1,94,101 (really 1-540) FF 1, 48 Iron Fist 14 Iron Man 1 Avengers 1, 4 Captain America 100-106 I still have a few on my short list though: Journey into Mystery 83 Hulk 102 FF 2-12 ASM 1 Amazing Fantasy 15
  17. I'm personally not a fan of PGX, but I bought the book graded and intend to keep it that way. I may have it cgc'd eventually, however I just picked this book up in December. Awesome sig, really really awesome. That FF 1 is sweet. Needs a nice shiny blue label though. And yes shrink that bad boy he's all I see, it takes away from your post. I'll do some updates this weekend to shrink it down. I have a 27" monitor, IPhone 5 and IPad Andy sig doesn't look oversized on any of them. Perhaps your resolution should be ramped up? I just picked up another sweet silver age book (Tales of Suspense 39) that I will add to my profile picture.

  19. R.I.P #1 Fewer legit #1's just means that our #'1's are more rare!
  20. Man, I need a bigger scanner. I suppose my Iphone camera will work for now. Sign me up!
