  1. Random Vent... Why do so many MLJ that I want have brittle pages.. I cant bid on anything...
  2. Hey Mitch, I have not seen this particular copy, but at 9.4 how much risk are you actually taking other than a severe lecture from the wife for spending $14k on a comic...
  3. NBC (no back cover), nice pages. Never get tired of this one Steve I hope you upgrade someday A copy missing bc is about all i think i could ever afford in this book. Heck, I d be happy with a front cover only or just a coverless copy.
  4. Nice!! Dont see it very often. I passed on GACollectibles copy a few years back and prob made a mistake to not pull the trigger. Oh well
  5. I also prefer Adventure as a title to Action, and the early books are why. This is my absolute favorite Flessel cover! Thanks! I agree it is top of the list. Not only is it a great composition, but the inking is masterful. Anyone know if Flessel also did the inking on his work or did DC have anonymous artists filling the gaps for dead lines.
  6. No, I wish I had the talent. I had it commissioned. Congrats again! Sleepless nights, poopy diapers, burping I miss those days. A big congrats to Gino!! I am surprised your getting to sleep now : ) The day is coming when you will get as excited over the daily reqd poopy diaper as when that next new GA book arrives in the mail. Take care buddy
  7. Nice Super Duck I never got into humor much as i generally didnt even get the jokes in these older books such as Prehero DC or later MoreFun issues, but MLJ are quite good. Some of the funny animal art i saw in PEP even rivaled Disney IMHO. At least I enjoyed it as much.
  8. I missed this post, what a trophy Ed! High fives
  9. Here is my other recent pick up. Fujitani is the MAN! Hangman 7 by foxtrot70, on Flickr
  10. Thanks to all those who gave up bidding early so I could win at a decent price. BlackHood clink cgc 6.0 by foxtrot70, on Flickr
  11. This thread needs a bump - here is one of my favorite Top Notch covers. This was my first MLJ which was purchased a few months ago. IMG_3232 by foxtrot70, on Flickr
  12. the older the listing, the less likely the OP still has the book they were trying to sell. Sometimes it works out, but more often than not you make the offer or the buy and then a few days later your purchase gets rescinded when the seller notifies CLINK that the book is no longer available. That is helpful info, so if someone tried to buy the same book before me and it was not available, Clink would have scrubbed it already. I went a ahead and tried it so we will see what happens. Appreciate both responses to help me. I dont think this is actually happening. Or if it is, it's not happening every time. There are books with "offers" that have had those "offers" for as long as I can remember. CLINK is in the business of "least effort" (cause effort equals manpower which equals them spending $). Thus why no back cover scans on books, old website design, very little data scrubbing/inventory mgmt... Well, guess your right. I got an email that book was no longer available. Fortunately they removed it from their dbase.

  14. I have never used CLink. The website style appears old and outdated and I noticed many listings of comics being posted in 2007, any chance these older postings are valid? Anyone have experience they can share? Thx
  15. Funny, that issue is on page 1 of this old thread.
  16. Oh man, don't I know it. I started this back in 2006 or so, and there's a few Weirds in the #11-20 range I've still never seen for sale other than the specific copies I picked up. I've seen #1s go by and just not found the right combo of condition & price, plus missed a few I might have otherwise taken just because of timing. But as I say, this is the year! I've posted some of my issues piecemeal over the years, but once I finally complete the run I figure I'll dedicate a thread a la Miamiknight's with full scans of all the covers and some interiors... plus shout outs to some kind boardies. (thumbs u Thats the ticket - & thx for the group shot Jon
  17. Sold Mitch an EC comic. He was local to me, so able to pick up in person. Mitch is a great asset to this community. Hope hang out again in the future. Take care Scott
  18. I challenge anyone to put together a New Adventure run, regardless of grade. It's been done before, but good luck doing it now. I was really hoping that was the next thread youd start... day after day posting each Adventure issue up to say... 51 - ending w the classic sandman cover.
  19. Thanks! It was driving me nuts that we (I) couldn't figure out one of the [...]man comics from that time period. Different logo on that one and a great cover (at least the other half, the one we don't see, is). Below #3 is Human Torch. That pic has it all.
