Interesting. So you’re saying NOW is the time to scoop up copies of TDKR? I love that book and i’d like to sell my collection in 20 or so years and make a little coin, so.... ??

Can someone let me know what "TDKR" is??

As for me, I’m battling.000 for this auction.  Took one good whack at an offering, but at the last second the outfielder made a leaping grab before it crossed the fence and robbed me of a home run.  I’m on the verge of being sent down to the minors and being forced to play in the *shudder* Copper league until my batting average improves.  I’ll probably hang up the bat and glove rather than take the demotion.

I'm with you.  I keep bidding with zero results, but that doesn't mean that I'm giving up!

Thanks for your reply.  I'd be very happy with that.

I was able to pick up these 4 between the Nickel City con and a VFW show in Rochester this weekend.  Very happy with them, especially the Sinbad - the interiors are as nice as the cover!

Wondering if I should get this graded or not.  Your opinions would be appreciated, thank you.

As I look at the top of the book, I see green on the fc, the actual comic, and then the bc.  I hope I didn't get a touched book  

It doesn't look like spray, more like a marker

Not sure how well the scans show it, but along the right side there is some staining in the stone.  I love this book, just not sure where to put the grade.

Here is one of mine.  Not a nose bleed grade, but I really like the presentation and color strike on this Lady. 

Super smooth transaction.  Very happy with Rube11, thanks again

Thank you.  If the book grades a 4.0- 5.0, any guesses on where the grade might land with this type of interior defect? 

Thanks for your insight.  Has anyone else submitted a book with this type of flaw that can share their experience?  The book is mid-grade and I wouldn't bother grading the book if it came back qualified. 

I have a Silver Surfer #1 that has a coupon removed - that doesn't affect the story.  Would this come back a Blue Label or not?

Thanks in advance for any help here.

Weird War Tales #4  CGC 9.2  OW/W  $85

 

I'll take the Weird War Tales #4

Most Image and Marvel that I read (ASM, Iron Fist, Might Thor, Moon Knight) have letters pages.  Image is especially in tune with them for the vast majority of their titles.  I only read Batman from DC - perhaps with a $2.99 price, they can't afford the letters?

Book is listed as Incomplete - why does this not have a Green label?  

I guess I don't understand why I see Qualified books and non-Qualified books with staple that are pulled/popped.  What is the official rules for this - can anyone explain why this occurs?

eBay just sold a Sugar #1 for $844.  Any thoughts or comments on the final price.  Seems like one of the staples is pulled?

I have made some purchases.  If I have bought from you, please let the forum know about it - thank you.

I disagree. He was Marvel's best "up the nose" cover artist of the 70s.

HA!  Never understood his love for that angle.

Gil Kane.  There, I said it.

What is this still doing here? Strangulation murder and a concentration camp story inside. Steal of the thread, with all due respect to a lot of nice books!

If this is still available, I'll take it.

I'm always impressed by this cover.  The detail is great
