Wow Rich's first post in 3 years and its here at enormous. This Thread IS ENORMOUS and Rich

I submitted 11 enormous books yesterday at a con , the two Phantoms (s-tooth) I put in had corner pinches , so I had them pressed. I will let everyone know how these covers press at CCS when they get back but its going to be a bit, no fast track as I had a bunch of other books and they busted the bank.

I have 4,269 copies on the treasury

that hastings was my buy

It waaaas funny, got me going on my spider-spider but tooooo serious here

I heard they are coming out with a Spider-Spider , the original spider that bit PP's staring role

the three I got show no color flake, no turn, but do show some color loss on spine, flake or just wear its hard to say

yup picked up a couple myself today at LCS

I bought 5 from him earlier at $59 they were perfect

He's ( cesradjr ) Back , but now $74.95 5x ENORMOUS 1 PHANTOM KAIJU SPECIAL EDITION B&W EXCLUSIVE VARIANT 215 Ink RARE

speaking of artists just got back from picking up my books and Mike Mignola (hellboy creator) was in the store getting his, . How about him for a cover

So yesterday I walked into a LCS off my normal beaten path in Manhattan Beach California and asked about enormous backs. He looked up and said " WTF is with that book, I'm getting calls and people looking for that this week" Congrats Tim this book has legs, ENORMOUS legs

I remember searching 7 11 racks for copies of Plop.

Tradd Moore would be cool Sergio Aragones would be crazy fun, can you imagine what he could do

Please, Please keep the numbers in sequential order. Readers and collectors are so tired of the reboot. I think it will definitely hurt the following of this book. Just using the Vol 2 signifies a negativity to all collectors, and tells readers that “oh boy you already missed a bunch”. They may not pick up the book just based on the fact that this book may not make sense as I haven’t read Vol 1

Yikes is right That’s a new seller the old one was cesradjr he started of selling them 5x for 59 then went to 69, now not listing multiples that I can find, The new seller thecomicmarketnh is at $99.95 for 5

Looks like the listor for the multiple copies of the B & W PHANTOM Kaiju has stopped listing, ran out? Could this be a sleeper, with our estimate of only 150 copies printed?

Thanks guys

Sorry if it was a dumb question. I'm new to slabbing books, not to collecting. I just wanted opinions on what books should or should not get slabbed. Realizing that no one predicts the future , wanted general opinion on what you guys think

I guess my question is . How much value change does slabbing these books do, being that they are not first 3 issues. Irregardless if i sell or keep

I have a question for you CGC pros. I have about 6 of each of the 4A, 4B, 5A , 5B covers, they all look perfect, no wear blemish, or corner issues. My question is , I am Going to a con next weekend and cgc will be there. I am planning on turning in 2 of each for my personal collection, but should I just do them all.. Does slabbing these make sense. Just looking for opinions wont come looking for anyone later

Sign it in gold then it's worth it for sure

baconbakecakes? . that speaks for itself

prob not him that guy has never sold on ebay before, at least that's the way it looks. edit Uh I see Bill said it wasn't him
