I thought I had already posted mine; old label goodness.

Here's my one and only. The book was part of a collection that I bought, and subbed by me without pressing.

While I'm at it, here's another great Stevens cover that you don't see everyday:

Here are some pics, to give you all a sense of what it is: Front Cover: Back Cover: Inside Front Cover (with Steven's sig): Table of Contents: Price for Playboy #1: So, it really is a price list for a Southern California dealer in 1983. Probably personally knew Dave Stevens and got him to do the cover. I would imagine that these are indeed quite rare, since there would be no reason other than the cover to keep it.

Wow; I'm truly shocked at the final price. I have a signed copy that I picked up 5+ years ago. I'll try to post a pic when I get home and can dig it out. It's very tough to find since it's essentially a Playboy back issue price guide/catalog. Obviously a fantastic cover, though.

Here's the Annual #1:

I loved the regional pricing; in the late 80s, I attended college in western Massachusetts, buying a lot of McFarlane or Liefeld books for $1, then taking them back to Los Angeles during vacations to trade towards Silver, Bronze, or Copper books.

if still available (I think they are): Captain Storm #15 Captain Storm #16 Ghost Rider #3 GI Combat #168 Power Man #48 (7.0) Star Spangled War Stories #151

I own the Albedo #2 and the TMNT #1, but not Cerebus. Never got around to buying a Cerebus, and have honestly lost interest in it when I read the series ending. To me, and to stay copper, I would swap Cerebus for Bone #1 first print because of the low print run to be consistent with the Albedo and TMNT.

I think for Wildcats #1, it was an incentive ratio, and I recall it was 1:100. I really wanted one, so placed an order for 100 copies of #1, just to get the #1 Gold, which was signed. I don't recall if the Gold unsigned was an option or not.

I'm in.

My copy is pretty well centered...a little bit off from the top/bottom.

Matthew, Is it this one? The Comic Book Heroes? https://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Comic-Book-Heros-Will-Jacobs-Gerard-Jones/253915282644?epid=1265973&hash=item3b1e87bcd4:g:dQ8AAOSwX7BaZ5ix

I've found Stan to be incredibly kind and generous with his time. He does quick sketches for free (see my avatar), and will also take commissions. I had one done at SDCC years ago, and it turned out great, and I picked it up later in the weekend. Not sure what his current commission list is like or how quickly he will do them.

The best was Ren and Stimpy #1, which came bagged with a secret message on the cover. The secret message is "You eediot! You opened the bag!! Now the comic ees worthless!!"
