A seller can't say "yes" if a buyer doesn't ask. Sometimes, a seller's ask is ridiculous. Sometimes, a buyer's ask is ridiculous. It's all a game.

Amen. Anyone who has ever had a garage or yard sale can attest to this.

4.5-5.0

But that's still better than my copy. 

Yeah, 6.0-6.5 is how I would list it raw for sale.

Wait till the end...

This is a double-covered 100-pager! The outer cover is loose, as these had staple-bound interior pages and their covers were glued on at the spine. So the outer cover never got any glue. 

That does indeed help! Thank you!

I'm on Team 5.0. Good luck and congrats!

I agree with 5.5. Very nice book.

Hi, all! Found this beauty misfiled in my collection and I'm stumped as to whether to get it slabbed. It's got amazing cover gloss you could signal airplanes with, BUT it also has pronounced Marvel chipping across the top. I truly appreciate your input/feedback. Grade? Would you send it in?

RE: cockroach Spidey

This is proof that Jack was a better writer than Stan is an artist.

Best thread on this forum hands down. It is always fun to see the awesome pickups people get.

Love this thread. Keep hunting!

5.0-5.5

Most dealers I know (comics and other collectibles) look at their stuff as a commodity more than something to hold onto for years. If you can own your own business, make money and put food on the table, there's nothing to look back on and regret. You do what you do to keep the lights on.

True. My rule of thumb now that I'm liquidating my collection (slowly) is "don't get high on your own supply." A sale is a sale, and a $50 bird in the hand is worth two $100 birds in the bush.

(Just wash your hand after.)

What am I missing here? It's rare, but not THAT rare...

Miracleman #24 on eBay

First submission ever: 10 books. Please be kind.

Very proud of the Nova #1, as I bought that myself when it first came out yearzzzz ago.

Can't wait for Man-thing to take off. Long over due

 

it's always a good day when your Man-thing takes off

Untruemor: Hasbro just signed Eli Roth to direct "Littlest Pet Shop: The Reckoning."

Morbius looks like he just beat Spidey in a dance-off.

"You have been served, Web Slinger!"

8.0-8.5, but an awesome book!

 

Oh wow, that looked horrible.

It wasn't good. I saw it in the theater when it came out. I was a kid and was introduced through Marvel's comics and magazine adaptations, and read the first paperback in the series.

What seems to have happened, though, is that the studio did a quickie nostalgia cash-in with a campy tone rather than a more faithful adaptation that took the source material seriously. (For example, the musical score was based on John Philip Sousa marches.)

I loves me some Rock, but his tendency to wink at the camera will have to be controlled. Let's have faith in Shane Black, though. I liked "Iron Man 3."

If you want to throw money into ongoing traffic.........Aquaclown and Subby are dead...D...E...D......nobody is banking on 2 guys that swim real good and talk to dopey fishes,or live in some stupid place under water and hates humans.....good luck with that special snowflake story.......

 

I would say that he's part of the JLA so like it or not aqua man will be there even if it's a brief appearance.

Namor is teh shizzle. Atlantis 4 Life!

just watched drugstore cowboy check out the comics!

Zell? Who's Zell?
