Spidey 62

Gotta be tough running 2 big sales threads at the same time.

I grabbed a nice ASM 82. Well packaged and shipped very fast. Excellent person to do business with.

It was a strange route this took, but I got it back...almost. Not quite in my hands yet. I was, evidently, conservative in the grade I thought I might get. Some glare and the outer bag screwing with the sig. I couldn't be happier, and white pages!

My question is more about the look of the Kirby sig. I am by no means an autograph expert, but it looks fishy. I did see that the Kirby is listed as "written on cover" and so not a witnessed sig.

This was posted on a Facebook group I visit. The Stan Lee is witnessed, but does that Jack Kirby look less than legit? Was he around for the milestone books?

So, when I put in a title and issue, the links that come up are just the links to the selling sites, not to the page on the site that has the book?

I was a part of the 94 club briefly, back in the fall for about a week. A friend and I bought a collection and I was the designated seller. Damp-ish basement loosely boxed original owner 80s and 90s stuff. Part of it was a sporadic run of the Byrne X Men, including a vg ish 94. Lasted on the bay for about 10 minutes. Neither one of us are X guys.

Oh, sure, I don't disagree. Just pointing out eBay's thinking on the matter. And eBay's thinking is seldom rational. Agree... Ebay and many other companies.

Yes, there are penalties for filing false reports, but if I was sent to someone, who wanted a report, and they told me this story...I would say that it is a civil matter and a police report is not needed. Some people just want something on paper that has some police department boilerplate. There is a trend where people simply want to criminalize everything in order to get police involvement where it is neither needed or even required. Sometimes the police are not the answer to every problem.

Also, I have never understood what the necessity is for a company to "require" a police report. A report ony parrots what the complainant says (at least where I work) . And in this case, what would the charge be? This is a civil matter, not criminal. In this case, the seller is simply saying the item was returned in a worse condition then when it was sent.

That might be a worthy entrant at Cannes.

I have a Marvel Team Up 65 (the Captain Britain one) that has a Pizzazz magazine insert. I have checked ebay cgcs and don't see any with a notation. Apparently an insert isn't necessarily an insert.

NICE books.

FTFY. It doesn't seem that difficult to put a good hero movie together, but these people continue to screw it up.

What he said

ASM 11. From here. Happy to still have it, and the other 30 odd slabs, since then.

Yes, true, he wasn't big, ugly, nasty, Venom until Eddie Brock.

Is there any interest /value in Bronze Archie and related books? I have 30 ish and, although I used to read when I was younger, they really don't fit in with my books anymore. Same question for Silver cartoon Dell/Harvey?

I am always hoping to pick up the next ASM silver villain 1st. I want a 9 next but I have to accept the prices.

Agreed, Venom isn't Venom until the symbiote merged with Eddie Brock Technically, the black suit is Venom. Like it or not, it is the same entity. There was an internal tug of war between the good of Peter and the aggressive nature of the entity/suit.

per pm

It's the origin of Venom technically. I would consider it a Key but to each his own. I agree, but it isn't in continuity and I think that may hold it back a bit. Also, it is a quite dumb sequence on how he got the costume/entity

I use a similar perforated folding mailer, white on one side, brown on the other. One book with 2 cardboard stiffeners is still 1st class. Had to go into my eBay history. Bought from value mailers.

Why wouldn't that book get a purple label? I don't know. Green label with note that says 5th wrap married. I am just assuming how the wrap would get installed. I don't think married stuff gets purple.

I recently purchased an ASM 13 5.0 green label, 5th wrap married. I paid half the price of a blue label. There would be a lot of work in marrying a 5th wrap, I would suppose. Unbending the staples, matching the new page staple holes, and reassembling the book. I don't consider it a glod. I consider it a gthi (glad to have it).
