  1. No, bought it on Ebay. Had a guy who was going to sell me another 9.8 years ago but he didn't follow through. I also have an 8.5 but that's well below my minimum goal that I'm shooting for.
  2. Got my 3 Yogi bears Back from CGC with the following grades, Yogi Bear 3, 9.4 White, Yogi Bear 8, 9.0 White, Yogi Bear 9, 9.2 White And I managed to upgrade a Scooby-Doo 9 to a 9.8 (W) and Spotlight 4 in 9.6 (W) Happy with the results. Its getting tougher to find upgrades or missing issues.
  3. How can it be the first ANY appearance?? That's clearly not true. This is not an ad and its not a preview, its a Scooby-Doo activity page made just for HIM and includes mention in the index. It's just Scooby without the gang. and it was probably drawn before the TV show made its CBS network debut on Saturday 13 September 1969 but i cant prove that. I realize a change like this makes some people annoyed or angry. The market didn't decide anything if collectors are unaware of a significant appearance SIX MONTHS BEFORE his perceived first Appearance. I think its very cool too and folks can decide if they care or not. The question was asked and I answered it. Those who want every appearance will also want this one.
  4. It's a comic, listed in Overstreet and graded by CGC just a different size. Its an appearance many months before the other, its a cameo and perhaps not a first full appearance but it is the actual FIRST by the same company that will later have the first full title. The page is NOT a reprint. I have the first issue also and its definitely not the first time he is in comics, however it is the first FULL appearance
  5. No, he has his own devoted page also listed on index.
  6. And the winner is............ Golden Comics Digest #7. Gold Key Nov / 1969. First appearance of Scooby-Doo (solo). Pre- dates Scooby 1 by a whole bunch.
  7. and a Clea solo story in issue 53. I believe a first for her character?
  8. Thats a nice copy! Personally, I think most of them are tough. Unconventional, Newstand only and not the kind of books Marvel fans would buy at the time (I know I didn't) I think most copies were well read and enjoyed by a younger crowd. With some exceptions such as first issues. Someone always hordes those. An Interesting thing about ALL the Dynomutt issues that Scooby Doo fans may not be aware of is that one story in each book is continued into the Scooby Doo Marvel title. The comments on (Dynomutt 5) CGC case should read. .... Scooby Doo Back-up Story, Continued in Scooby Doo 6.
  9. Kirby definitely enjoyed using the photo tricks during his time on this title.
  10. Heck of a set!! I have put together a set of the Marvel 9 issue run and it's been a fun challenge so i know this was definitely a labor of love for you. These are WAY tougher to find in nice shape.
  11. The big change is around 1985 when the direct editions start over taking newstands.
  12. Back in the day in 1976 when Saturday morning TV was still fun the Krofft Supershow also had Electra Woman and Dyna Girl. Electra... sounds like a familiar name? The following years Marvel Started creating numerous female superheroes.
  13. This thread is definitely incomplete without this fellow.
  14. It's not crazy but i would get all their info, phone number, address. etc. Have they sold before and where? References? Check out the home online and call them if needed. Do what makes you feel confident about the transaction. Personally, I wouldn't do it if I'm not feeling 100 percent they are legit Your right to be cautious.
  15. Thats a gem! Not often I see a higher grade of this such as yours. First X-men cross over, first Avengers crossover and first Tales of the Watcher back-up stories. Ties with or falls between Avengers/X-men issues 2 to 3. Steve Ditko art on X-men. (I dont think that occurred very often} definitely a bargain considering its relevance.
