    Gotta 'earn' those dollar books under the table.

    Did they serve him, even though he was shirtless?

    I predict the fixed value will not be what people have paid for it at a Convention or Private Signing over the last oh......20 years.

    And probably a reason why I only own 2 CGC books.

    Kind of sad. I mean this is one of the greatest ambassadors of the medium. His role in comics are immense (some controversial with the Kirby and Ditko stuff), but he is about as important to the contributions to pop culture as Walt Disney, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, & Lucille Ball. I bet he never thought this would be happening to him.

    Lists like this can be very subjective. My 100 Greatest Rock Songs are not going to match yours. Same with these pages. Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan....ummmm....ok.?! Poll 100 random people on the street. 98 of them can tell you who Clark Kent is, I bet you not one can tell you who Kamala Khan is.

    Ok this is creepy. Friday, a co-worker of mine was been talking about how has been binge watching the early CHEERS seasons, and he brought up Harry 'The Hat', and how he used to scam the regulars. We laughed about some of his scams. Literally out of the blue talking about the actor Harry Anderson, and 3 days later come to find out he just passed away. CREEEEEPY........

    I put my comics in a gun safe and my guns in a acid free long box.

    I didn't mean "you" personally, just in the general sense of whoever winds up overpaying for it.

    Nope. Given the circumstances, it's just plain creepy. It's not like the KISS comic from the 70's where the band consented (and probably got paid a bunch of cash for putting their blood samples in the red ink). This sounds like it was stolen from Stan under the guise of a medical sample. Report was he got very week from them taking too much. This is just bad mojo.....bad mojo jojo....I don't need that tainting my awesome collection.

    There is no Universe in which whoever buys that will ever recoup their money. You are hedging a bet there is somebody even more stupid than you. Think of the awesome (even harder to find) high grade Silver Age comics you can get for that price. A person can do whatever they want with their money. I don't get it though.

    They (the variant crowd) are going to make themselves go broke, chasing false profits. Sure a few will get some cash up front, early on (these are the smart ones) selling them now. They know the game. But this most likely, will not sustain. These will die down, like most variants do. Remember late night cable, when there were two guys basically yelling at you to buy their limited edition sports cards, and the asinine prices they were selling them for. Worth pennies on the dollar now....Similarities?.....

    Awesome book, but good lord $78K and counting
  22. Mercury Man
    Amen. Watch ebay get flooded the day when he passes, and then watch 3 months after that when prices get slashed in $100.
  23. Mercury Man
    Sure is. And some of those photo op samples.....yikes.
  24. Mercury Man
    Are you currently affiliated with Stan's 'Camp' or are you secretly Keya? You seem to defend the current situation on a few posts. Just trying to understand where you are coming from.

    Given last weeks appearance, nobody should put down their money for his signatures, photo ops. Look at some of the examples in other threads. Stan has finally hit 95 years old and it seems to have caught up with him. Let him rest. Save your $. When he passes on to Valhalla, eBay will have about 500,000 items for you to choose from, for 1/2 the price once supply exceeds the demand (it will take about 2 days).?
