  2. That's really cool.guess its earlier then marvel tales 1.

    I figure the OP wants something authentic but what I did for display purpose was find the highest res. scan I could find and had it printed out and put a reprint behind it.I don't like any of those with the boarders on them.I thought there was either a German or Mexican reprint a while back that did an exact replica.(see the German has euro price)?

    This is easy for me.  AF15 and ASM1...  Despite the advice of many to go ahead and buy an AF15 first then the ASM1 then the rest of the ASM run keys, I did it backwards.  So I have most of the big keys but not the two most important.  With the money I spent on those books I could've had a nice mid-grade AF15.  I've had more fun doing it this way though!  :)  

    I did this also.though I did buy ASM 1 right out the gate.looking back to 2013 I should of gotten AF 15. But I do like have all those SA marvel runs nearly complete.and I have owned AF15 before.

    Hasn't it been selling for more than that for a while?

    Last two raws went $140 each. Really kicking myself for passing up a raw a few weeks back for $60 now.

     

    And then you have,most interesting guy in the world who doesn't always just jump feet first into that which he does not know...

    Don't like the art?! Are you more of a Jeff Lemire fan?

    The only thing i have written by lemire is the current Thanos series.I haven't been judgemental about it because thanos iis my top favorite villain.but...truly i find it mediocre at best.and the art has been taking a steady decline since it started.

    Now the art thing with preacher...yes the covers are great,but the interiors? Kinda like to today's stuff,great covers but romper room exploded inside.but not to that degree in preacher.I think it could of been a little more polished up instead of looking so sketchy.

    As far as moderns I do like,I went all in on all the abbnett and lanning cosmic stuff.covers matched interiors on most of annihilation/nova and conquest.guardians started slipping later.and the last few series have been decent enough.I really liked what looked like painted interiors on all new gotg #3( I think?)

  6. So GOTG is pretty cold right now.can't resist picking up some of them like 1 and 25 and the variants.they're at least half of what they used to be,speaking all raw and nm-ish.of what I initially paid on some copies anyway.bought an entire run the other day for $40. Writing on the wall? Thought vol2 was a decent watch.looks like it had impact.

    Any thing else hit hard lately?
