    Schomburg and Timely frequently made the heroes slightly bigger or just completely out-sized bigger to attract the eye to them. My personal theory is they thought that this made the heroes stand out to the casual observer on the newsstand.

    I'm surprised nobody's made the comparison to Comic-Keys and Danny. Comic-Keys was selling restored books as untouched but they were also selling cracked out books as higher grades. Before I knew better, I bought an ASM issue, don't remember which one, that was "guaranteed" 9.4/9.6. I bid like it was a CGC 9.0, won, sent it in for grading, and it came back an unrestored 9.0. Lucked out. This guy (woman?) appears to be a low-rent version of robojo. I am also surprised at how many people are just shrugging and saying "Buyer Beware." Makes me sad. One reason I like the CGC Boards is that there has always been a sense that we look out for each other and the comic collecting community. I hope that isn't going away.

    Get the latest Overstreet grading guide that has CGC graded books on the front cover. Link to Overstreet Grading Guide 2016., I think? While I do not think CGC has officially said they go by that guide it is at least blessed by them since they allow Overstreet to use their graded comics as examples.

    It is a startling change in style but I still love it. I passed on this book the first time I saw it on Metro's site but snagged it when it popped up a year later. I had kicked myself for a solid year for missing it the first time. Two other, lower grade, copies had shown up during that time and I missed both of them by seconds. The #1 is the book I was happiest to purchase, my wife bought it for me , but the #2, the #8, and the #11 probably tie for 2nd place. Love these books.
