Now that's an interesting question. That had to be a very unique relationship. Running buddies? Bosom and boozing confidants? Matt keeping the whole thing together?
If I remember correctly Archer St. John died in the apartment of his mistress (of a heart attack?). I'm not sure anyone can shed much light on their relationship given how private Matt was mixed with how St. John really had him control the art and layouts. My feeling is Matt was busy and dedicated and St. John knew the quality of the images even if he neglected the quality of the printing. Sales were enough to keep the lights on and keep Archer galavanting.

18 in 9.8 is certainly a lot. How many of those are direct and how many are newsstand is less clear. The tough variant of this issue is the 35 cent variant, where there are 0 in 9.8 and 19 total graded copies.

So uh, how suspicious is this? Am I reading it wrong or was the price jacked up by one guy?

One of these days I will get around to slabbing my Hulk 2 type books and a few others that are arguably worth it (I sold most of the major keys years ago), but the amount of money I would spend slabbing a host of $75-200 books in my collection would basically be enough to create a whole new, pretty good, collection, yet the market seems to think those should be slabbed. CGC is a great product and if I am spending real money nowadays I want that slab, but criminey there should be a cheaper option for the mid tier books 9.4-6 and below that adds the requisite trust and liquidity. MCS basically creates that for a $7 fee on consignment, but they don't give you that tamper proof packaging. I get it though, if the goal is a 9.8 it probably needs all the bells and whistles. And my guess is that MCS is not doing the same level of resto check on a cheaper book. If some book winds up being restored from them do they accept returns? (But you still get burned on slabbing fees?)
As for CGC, if they lowered fees they'd keep everyone on salary pretty busy if there has been a slow down. They might need to splurge on a good espresso maker.
Red Hulk 2?
There is no way I could afford the price to submit any books as low as $75. My bar is currently around $1,000...even then most sit years before being hand-picked for submission

It has gotten out of hand with eBay. I also sell used auto parts on there and am one of the larger sellers. Their mission to copy Amazon in many ways and mismanagement has caused them their downfall.
They are not organically growing their business and relying on Promoted Listings to show a profit to their shareholders. It is very sad.
Figure between Promoted Listings, Promotions, Free Shipping, Free 30 Day returns, and then also add having to fend off false SNADs left and right it doesn't help at all.
SNADs?

Godzilla 24 $686 in heavy bidding. https://www.ebay.com/bfl/viewbids/115919336387
jordysnordy's Godzilla Marvel registry is complete and beyond approach, so does that eliminate it being battle of registry collectors?
Very difficult last issue to find in high grade unlike #1 of which there is near endless supply. Although in the last ~16 months the 9.8 population has grown from 9 to 14 and its no longer the least populous issue of the title in that grade.
Early direct variant too

I was in line in Providence to do that with mine but the line was all day...I ended up getting a refund and never had the moment with Stan.
