  1. PGM-Xmen 266 This is the one I'll bring to the con this weekend to be signed by Jim Lee, looks like maybe a little soft corner at top left of spine; great centering though and 3 sharp corners any help appreciated
  2. how much do you charge for your services I found one raw, didn't press it though, thought it'd come back in the 9's at worst 8.5, came back 8.0 even those who held it in hand raw were surprised.....plus at LCS nearly every copy they've had for a while has been priced at $300 raw......
  3. I just realized that I have copies of Wolverine: Limited Series 1982 that I never read that are signed (not graded nor COA, another story) but rather than risk not making my money back on those, I went and bought reader (so called) copies today for $10 in short I was embarrased that I had never read the Wolverine Limited Series of 1982 Frank Miller wahoo!!
  4. I went back and bought them since the copies that I had previiously are signed I can use these as reader copies, silver lining and all
  5. I just went by my LCS and they had reader copies (so called) of the Wolverine: Limited Series 1982, 1-4 for $15, they were packaged in a bundle.... I did't buy them idk my signed ones may end up being my readers, but I spent $102 on them way back when....
  6. Your seriously going for the gold on the Punisher
  7. Hi everyone I'm late to the party, and evidently first prints are something else, to be tallied as such! As first prints are expensive, are 2nd prints worth their salt for TMNT #1? I've just started to research and could use some simple advice, if it is simple. I see at the LCS TMNT's #3 in VF for about $40 and they're sized differently than modern comics. Are they Magazines? or is that what you Sub them under? at what number do they stop being this size #5? LCS also had a #4 for cheap, and of course it's the type of LCS that I don't know what print they are ie 1st 2nd 4th. Also of 1-4 which have multiple prints... idk this is a lot to ask and I understand it's probably common knowledge around here, so if anyone feels the need to pm me rather than take up space here I understand I just hope that I could rap my head around it....and get some knowledge
  8. How about this, I got back into comics, and bought Wolverine the Limited Series #'s 2,3,4 signed by Len Wein on the cover raw. Then I bought #1 and had it signed by Chris Claremont on the cover raw So none of them are CGC'd and not a COA in sight, I could go to Voldermort but they're not worth the price in value, $25 to verify a sig, what a insufficent person without empathy I was, they are, ery'ting is pffft
  9. Now a days I still don't know what's going on sooooooo make of it what you will
  10. I signed up for a subscripton of Spiderman Classics when I was young, which is like Marvel Tales, reprints but specifically Spiderman. It had Stan writing, which was first appearances of characters so I felt like I was getting the "full" story. Amazing Spiderman around #170 seemed, when I read it, to be in the middle of what was going on and I was to young to connect the dots. I'm sure the guy has done other stuff, but specifically on the Spiderman, it left a bad taste in my mouth.
  11. i'm just glad that I'M not the but of your jokes, oh no did I step in it?
  12. I guess I misspoke. Maybe it wasn't totally the art, but the books didn't look attractive when I was a kid (single digits) in the 80's. Seeing them in dollar bins didn't make me want to look through and when I did, it might have been tainted with looking at the new stuff. I can't say that I was old enough at the time to appreciate much. I liked JR JR growing up, but didn't know better. I guess the real reason I didn't like them was because it seemed an old style art but not old style writing, so I couldn't really get into it. I also think that around Mcfarlane I was a bit older and it seemed modern. if that makes any kind of sense
  13. Was at HPB and was selling some stuff to them and went to look at the comics, this one made me so I bought it for a buck DEFINITELY NOT 9.8 but beats paying for shipping

  15. I had also bought some spidey comic off of ebay that said "...and bonus comic", and it turned out to be any issue from Brand New Day, what a drag
  16. I had said in a previous thread practically the same thing except mine was a subscription to Spiderman Classics in the late 80's
  17. LCS believe it or not...plus they were celebrating being in business here in Dallas for 28 years and were having a sale the original price was $20 for each and the sale was all back issues under $75 were 28% off, I had limited funds because of a comic con coming up, so when I found these two I bought them and left before I went over budget (and then theres the 8.25% sales tax ha)
  18. Are you talking about the "dirt" by the staple?? I'm curious too, because I bought a Ms Marvel #17 that is mostly a white cover as well that "looks" dirty like that.....
  19. Thanks If I ever get it graded, I will get it pressed and cleaned and try to secure a high grade.
  20. Yall's put mine to shame, but I rescued this copy today at the low low price of $15.58! I couldn't pass it up at that price, it's a reader so I read it and Darkseid's first allegiance is all it had, ahhhh, no actual Darkseid in comic? Anyway: staples firmly atached, no rust on staples, not brittle thank God, and complete I know it's probably only an investment of sorts in high grade, but at this price I couldn't pass it up wanted to see all the hubub BUB
  21. Oh and not many, it looks like, have sold in low to mid grade....except for raw
  22. I've looked several times to see if the one's that I have, if I got them for a good price. But I think that you said it yourself, it's heated a little, but really ASM 129 has remained constant other than heating a little to secure $100 a point for a minute there. And those are usually CGC copies, as far as a raw go with your gut Basically it has embers, if you know of anything that will stoke the fire let me know... @Readcomix
