Now if only I could find a high grade raw Vampi #3.

You and me both, sir!  That's been harder than any of the others.  I would even pay GPA for a raw copy but there just aren't any around.  

That's some unadulterated hoarding!!

It might not be illegal, but that doesn't make it right!   

This is an awesome thing to have put together!  Many thanks!! 

This is a great book.  If I didn't already have a copy, I'd be all over it.  And you're right about the interior artwork- great stuff!

I don't like the way he's manhandling those comics!  

Bryan's one of the best guys on the boards.  Absolutely the best communication and a top notch member of the community!!  Thanks again, sir!

I've had a pole since this thread started.

Damn!  I didn't see that coming, Bedrock! 

That's a great bunch of books, Robot Man!  Those laminated covers on the A. Merritt books are really frustrating.  I've had several only to watch them delaminate over time.  Had a very nice copy of Dracula that just separated in front of me.  

I'll do 10% off on these books for any that are interested.  The NYX books are a great deal at that price!

Too good to pass up 

Thank you, sir!  

If anyone is interested, I'll sell the rest of the books left in this thread for $200 and will throw in a dozen other mid to high grade Heavy Metals, Warrens, and Marvel Curtis mags to sweeten the offer!

That's exactly what I do. No tape near my bags. Just tuck the flaps in! 

 

I heard someone else on here make a suggestion that they use color coded post-it notes instead of tape. I might try that idea and see how that works out. 

I've been using those post-its for years and never had a problem.  Even had them catch on a book once and they don't leave adhesive or take material off of the comics.  Highly recommend!

Eerie 78 is sold per pm

And last but not least, a pretty copy of Zatanna 15, very tough and increasingly harder to find black cover of an Adam Hughes classic. 9.2-9.4 but would grade much higher with a pressing. $50  SOLD!! Edit: the scratch at the bottom is a scanner artifact and not on the book.

Gotham City Sirens Lot 9, 13, 15, 18. Avg. 9.4  All cool covers! $20 for the lot.  With discount- $15!

Gotham City Sirens Lot 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.  Avg. 9.4-9.6  Great set of classic Guillem March covers showcasing Harley Quinn, Catwoman, and Poison Ivy.  $70 for the lot- With discount- $52!  SOLD!!

Gotham City Sirens 1 NM 9.4.  Just a beautiful copy, nice, tight and square.  Slight NCBC keeps from grading higher.  Pressing would produce very high grade. $70 with discount- $52!!

Set of 3 books:  NYX 3 (First X-23), 4, and 5.  All are perfect 9.6 or better copies that are fresh and unpressed as I've owned them since they came out.  $700 buys all 3.  With discount- $525  SOLD!!

NYX 3,4,5 - Gotham City Sirens - Adam Hughes!!

My perspective, as a kid that started reading and collecting comics in the 1976-1977 range- nobody cared or knew who Wolverine was until 1980-1981 at which point he was just a part of the unbridled success of "the New X-men".  Yes, fans talked about how cool he was then but they also couldn't get enough of John Byrne in general or any of the X-men related material (x-overs, etc.). It was some time around 1982-1983 that the run up on Hulk 180 and 181 started in earnest.  Before that, you could still find them pretty cheap in back issues.  After that, they were "wall books" or kept in the glass case.  Anyway, that's just my recollection.

Believe it or not, I had friends at that time that didn't even like Wolverine as a character.  To them, he was rude, dangerous, unpredictable and oddly aggressive.  To them, he wasn't really hero material.

Different time.
