  1. Klozd I was wandering does your Hulk 216 variant have a printers crease on the right edge of the front cover just above the red banner"Countdown to Castastrophe" I have seen three of this issue and they all did and I don't know about the other two but mine also has a printers crease on the back. If yours does their must have been a problem at the factory with this issue at least the 35 cent one's I have also noticed every Ghost Rider #26 variant I have seen also has a large printers crease on the front cover to. I will attach a scan to show what I mean. Just curious if all the Hulk 216 variants are like this frown.gif. Also If anyone can rember what variants Motor City had I would love to hear.

     

    Yes, mine has the printer's crease defect also, something I took into account when grading the book. With it being a printing defect though, would that lower the grade on the book or no?

  2. blush.gif Great find on all those variants did you find them in the dollor boxes or did you have to pay full price for them? It is always exciting to find a 35 center in the cheep boxes cloud9.gif. I found a Nova #12 in the 50cent boxes in a Comic store in Nashville TN. and even though it was in such bad shape that cover was falling off I was still as excited as a little kid with a new toy blush.gif. What kind of condition is the Hulk #216 in?

    Does anyone know which 35 centers Motor City had for sell any tough to find ones like Sgt. Fury or Super Actions?

     

     

     

    I talked with Brain from Motor City, and got to take a look at all of their variants including the Scooby Doo #1, a very nice book, but for $3500, I had to pass. I don't remember exactly which other variants they had, but they had ALOT.

     

    Two of the books I found I got for half off what they were marked at Graham Crackers booth, the other six I found scrounging around for $1 or less. I just got done grading them out and here is what I've come up with:

     

    $.30ers

     

    Conan 61 VG-

    Defenders 35 VF

    Howard the Duck 3 VF

    Inc. Hulk 202 F-

    Marvel Presents 4 VG

    Warlock 12 VG+

     

     

    $.35ers

     

    Inc. Hulk 216 VF/NM

    Marvel 2-in-1 29 VG+

     

    I like to think I'm pretty tough on grading all the way down the scale, but I think they came out about right. The Hulk 216 is REALLY NICE, and unless I can get a decent buck for it raw on either here or Ebay, I might just send it it to be graded. I'll have to see.

  3. My booth was located right next to Motor City, and they had some pretty nice books, albeit pricey. During downtime, I scavenged the con floor and turned up the following variants:

     

    $.30ers

     

    Conan 61

    Defenders 35

    Howard the Duck 3

    Inc.Hulk 202

    Marvel Presents 4

    Warlock 12

     

    Also Kazar 16 (3x), not sure if this is a variant though, but considering 17 still had a $.25 price, I picked them up anyway.

     

    $.35ers

     

    Inc. Hulk 216

    Marvel 2 in 1 29

     

    I didn't bother to put them up for sale at the con, noone was really asking for them. So, they will be up for sale on Ebay by the end of the week.
