  1. I have no idea. None of the above. wait, or is it all of the above I'd be ok with fully detached covers as long as they are in decent shape (i.e. I'm not afraid to touch them lest they fall to dust) and the book is complete and readable.
  2. This thread is 15 pages long. Who says the forum is dead?! Then again, I'm trying to complete an Uncanny and amazing spider-man complete run at the same time. Disregard anything I say at all times.
  3. Maybe this should be in the newbie forum, sorry if its in the wrong spot. I'm trying the vuescan trial and the results are good so far, but I would like to avoid having to pay 40 bucks for it. Is there a similar quality (or better!) freeware scanning software option? Or even a cheaper option than vuescan standard that produces adequate comic book scanning results?
  4. careful not to cut yourself on those corners.

  6. ha, thanks! I've held them before. But something about holding your own first one in your hands...Is this what people feel like when the doctor hands them a newborn?
  7. I have big news! I finally own my first slab. Thanks to steppinrazor I can't stop looking at it...
  8. Great deal, packaged very well, and books as described. Thanks again!
  9. Plenty of story lines through roughly 300 are worth reading, as has been shared here already. I only have stuff past that because I'm working on a full run.
  10. no do not stop. Full run or gtfo, son.
  11. Most books after 101 (the end of the initial monster keys) are either keys themselves or pricey fillers in mid to high grade. Just get them all up to around 150 and you'll be covered, duh. edit: Somehow I missed this thread was three pages long so my answer is clearly irrelevant and duplicative.
  12. my LCS got a 94 in but it looked like a G+/VG-. Looks really nice for that grade, everything intact, but I'm gonna keep waiting for this grail.
