  1. I have a copy of Irredeemable 1 and the Daily Bugle Red Hulk issue, as well as various lower value moderns, available in my booth.
  2. Conan, I can confirm that I actively avoid consignment items and second guess auction bids due to the inability to piggyback shipping with them.
  3. Thrilling Crime 49 is one of those books that can seem expensive today and then look like a missed bargain tomorrow.
  4. I know some neighborhoods where the stabbings are free.
  5. Not much action on these, or any really. Someone will get these cheap.
  6. Anyway, here's my favorite Baker romance cover. Nothing more romantic than getting lit up by flaming death.
  7. This quote always bugged me since I couldn't reconcile it with my own knowledge of Baker. Feldstein says that Baker was famous for headlights. But that's not really true. Baker was famous for being the overall best and fastest draftman of GGA in his time, and probably ever (and also for dressing nattily as everyone seemed to point out). He wasn't famous for drawing big juggs and often didn't. This Feldstein comment is reductive and somewhat insulting. I think his memory failed him here.
  8. With regards to UF 4 specifically, there is a growing rumor, baseless or not, that a handful of dealers are sitting on massive amounts of high grade raw copies that are being slowly leaked out to the market. Could be nonsense but if enough people believe it they won't pour thousands into a 9.8 if there's even the possibility the rumor is true.
  9. My Suayan just moved out of CCS and into SFG.
  10. You should read it. It's really good.
  11. I have an Economy FT that was received 5/10 and is currently in G/QC.
  12. Jason, do you have any pictures of the packaging? MCS has always expertly packed my books so I'm curious how this one differed from their usual practices.
  13. Yup, I saw that. Strong price.
  14. People have been proclaiming the death of the comics market due to lack of kids being interested for 50 years.
  15. The collected Swamp Thing books do well but not really individual issues, other than 37. People just want to read the Moore run, rightfully so.
