    I'm wondering that as well. Aren't the grading standards supposed to be the same for Action 1 and New Mutants 98? I love the kiddies . . .

    It's a play on "crime" doofus A pre-superhero homage . . .

    On the other hand, I can truly say that the Eternals never did anything for me ( even as a huge Kirby fan.)

    I was referring to the book itself, not the marketplace. The title had its ups and downs but once Moench took over the writing and Gulacy the art, I think it was pretty special, and Starlin started it all with SME 15 and 16. I’ve gone back and read them and enjoyed them immensely.

    Personally, I wouldn't buy any book that said "Wal-Mart" on it.

    What's really unspeakable is that CGC could be "fooled" by that BS.

    So . . . who's your favorite comics character?

    This is basically correct, but a little harsh in its conclusory language. All newsies are harder to find in HG by virtue of end-to-end handling. HG newsies after approx 1985 are not only HTF but getting increasingly harder to find. I would suggest that modern newsies after 2005 are fairly plentiful in HG, although still present at a much lower percentage than Direct copies. The straight-line hypothesis posed in other threads is purely an over simplification of the real world. The Sandman example is an anomaly. But discourse rules, of course.

    You're calculation of the BA may be slightly off, or the books are heavily slanted towards the end of the BA.
