  1. Thank you to Patriot6, Cliff R., and OdinsSecrets for asking if I had any more Archies to offer at the beginning of my last sales thread a couple weeks ago. As a result, I went digging and pulled an Everything's Archie #113 from my boxes. When I ran some searches to figure out what to ask for it, I came across half the OA from Stan Goldberg's "Archie the Barbarian" story from that issue. Love the version of Cheryl Blossom in this one!
  2. Some of my favorite reading when these came out -- I read 107 and 109 (among others) over and over and over.
  3. On the other end of the size spectrum, I traded for this today. Not the easiest Matt Baker cover to find.

  5. So can anyone around here pop a copy of 128 into this thread?
  6. I think it's two different questions. In terms of value, a high grade bats 121 would probably rack up a higher number in an auction vs a comparable (and likely more common) copy of ASM 14. In terms of historical significance, ASM 14 hands down. Green Goblin is Spidey's arch villain, Mr Freeze (as a character) barely matters. Don't drop the bricks on me over that one -- I didn't say the concept barely matters; Captain Cold rocks as a villain. But Mr Freeze has not been significant in th Batman pantheon of villains in a long time. And he was never top dog.
  7. Absolutely gorgeous copies! Seeing these makes me want reader copies because, growing up with bronze and early copper, I always thought the Spidey villain Hydroman was a neat concept. I'd love to read these to see how directly he was based on this hero. (And clearly Man o' Metal looks like Stan recycled him into the Molten Man in the silver age.) Thank you for sharing them!
  8. Many do, especially first printings, which can be hard to tell. I'm far from an expert on UG; I picked up about 80 as a subset of a large collection I swallowed. I bought a Fogel's Underground Comix Guide; it was well worth the money! (About $40) Hope this helps.
  9. Feel free to PM -- offers, requests for more pix, any questions at all, etc.

  11. First, congrats! I keep hoping to find one in the wild in an Archie pile and never do. My first reaction is 4.0 maybe 4.5 but should press higher from what you're saying, no? However, is that discoloration at the bottom of the back cover? Might that be limiting from Fine range?
  12. Just posted six out of the seven issues of "Hammer Horror" (Marvel UK magazine) as a lot over in Mixed.
  13. Just placed six out of the seven issues of "Hammer Horror" (Marvel UK magazine) as a lot in mixed.
  14. CLOSED Offering as one lot -- here we have six out of the seven issues (missing #4) of the Marvel UK magazine "Hammer Horror." They look to be on the high side of Fine, in the 7.0 range. I'll do (was $75 shipped) NOW $65 shipped in the U.S. (These are taller than Marvel mags and will probably require a medium Priority flat rate box for safe transit, I'm thinking.) Rules: 1st here wins; check or money order as I do not have Paypal; no HOS/listy sorts, returns with notification within 3 days of receipt and on your dime, unless I missed something.
  15. Nice to see them! Thx! Until I stumbled into the #1, I wasn't aware of any of them.
  16. Saw him this summer at Tanglewood with the Boston symphony Orchestra...for some reason, the stage made Mr Evans look much shorter than he actually is
  17. Thx! John, the owner of Excellent Adventures, is the creator of the Albany con. See ya there!
  18. No but I know the LCS owner who runs it, and everyone says he does a great job. (Knowing him, I'm sure it's accurate.) Plus, Joe Sinnott is coming, so how can you go wrong? I plan to finally go this year.
