Third acquisition of 2025, more green extraterrestrials mixed with crazy G.A - what exactly is going on here?

Thank you for all the kind comments! I'm going to close this down Sunday, last opportunity to inquire before I send off to Heritage.

I have coverless copies of Police Comics #6 and Police Comics #7 for anyone who could use them on a marriage assist.

Second acquisition of 2025. I've been slowly morphing focus over to Robots and green extraterrestrials. This, of course, fits into the former. Also, slowly dropping hesitations towards label colors... high prices can tend to have that effect I suspect. Piece out? Coupon clipped? No problem, 7.0 GA sweetness.

I saw in news Mel Gibson lost an antique book collection, books going back into the 1600s.

I officiated a few marriages in 2024. The gig isn't easy, and doesn't pay that well - but is very rewarding and satisfying. A boardie assisted with the arrangements on the first one (thank you!).

I think I "lost my mind" on this one, but I own it now and love it...I had been in remorse ever since I let one go here on the boards a number of years ago. Its just so GA wild and wonderful imo. Its a cover only for now with another GA book stuffed in side to maintain the spine shape (tip: I've had some covers that were stored folded/flattened for years and the spins split after a few opens/bends) until I can find the correct Zip #18 coverless to slip inside.

I recently did a sell/buy scenario that really awoke me to the "vig." I'm sure everyone here is familiar with the "the vig" situation, but been chomping at the bit to share my tale. I had a highly prized book, front cover only, I was willing to sell and did BIN on feebay and got my $749.99. I almost instantly funded the purchase of a full cover only on mycomicshop of a book I had (but sold, here in fact) and really wanted it back. Therefore I "what-the-hecked" it for $650 (seller didn't take offers and I had tried via email a year ago, but I digress). Why not right, its essentially a "trade" and I'm up $100 right? Well, wait a minute. The selling costs and shipping were $124.89. Let's say I'm paying ~20% on the profit on income tax, so take another $130.20. I'm at $520 now on the sale. On the buy side, the $650 added another $70.85 for buyers premium, sales tax and shipping. So now I'm at $720 on the buy. In the end, the cover trade where I was up $100 turned out to actually cost me $200 (plus the original cost of the cover I sold). I'm still happy and excited about my new cover, but one can see that if you carried this process out dozens of times you would very quickly be drowning under water. Its a theme I picked up on another recent thread here - buy what you like and figure on holding, else be ready to take what comes. I personally like the buy/sell/trade interactions - it adds to collecting for me. I do wish straight up trading would become more of a thing again, like it was back in the day.

Anyone happen to have a coverless copy of Zip Comics #18?

It does! And also a terrific cover in its own right imo. Got this off the boards from our own @Spyder! One of my most cherished books.

My current coverless prize: Detective Comics #39

I have a complete coverless Science Comics #2 (and a The Human Torch #5 missing cover and two outside wraps) which I'd love to trade or offer up to anyone who has a cover.

This Fantastic Comics #3 was my best coverless, and also best find ever. I sold it earlier this year (back cover was actually attached... if you can believe that). So close!
