By far the toughest. I have a feeling how this round will go (in terms of the answers) and if they go the way I think (which I will reveal when the grades come out), it was a very very well thought out round.

Ok last try here. $500 shipped takes it all obo

Cover appears detached or barely hanging on. Because of that combined with the other wear I think a 3.0 is best case scenario here . If the cover were firmly attached I could see as high as 4.0 As for whether it’s “worth it” to grade, you’d have to consider what a 3.0 sells for and determine if adding an additional $40-50 to do so is worth it on top of what you paid for it

Looks 5.0-5.5 for me. It could hit 6.0 but that stain or whatever on the back might prevent that

I’m at 11 now. There is hope

Is it next level must have content? No Is it a fun series that’s cheap to collect with decent art? Yeah.

5 for me. I was way too far over on the Shocking Mystery (had 6.5). Otherwise two bullseyes and two off by just a hair.

Take 10% off everything (including the bundle deal)

Mine are in:) I mean they could be so wrong it’s almost better they weren’t but….c’est La vie

This is what I was hoping to hear. Much thanks!

So out of pure nostalgia, I buy a hotwheel every now and then. I have no clue what I’m doing but I go for cars I like (usually muscle cars, especially ones with more metal than plastic). Well this was at the grocery store and I grabbed it, thinking nothing of it. But for funsies I googled it when I got home and was floored!

This makes sense. In those examples though were the glasses attached to the comic in some manner, in which case you can clearly see where they were removed? With the book I have I see no indicators of such a thing. Hence I do not know if they were attached to the comic in some way. If someone else had a copy of Blackthornes 3-D Sheena with the Dave Stevens cover to know that would be the ultimate answer

Yes this is the book in question I cannot see anything inside the book (a page or anything near the staples) that would suggest that the book had the glasses attached inside. And the other 3-D book I have from this era (The Alien Worlds issue) was acquired with the glasses just "in the bag". Upon researching then, I determined that yes these glasses were correct for the book but had always wondered how they were distributed or if I was missing how they were attached (other than just being slipped inside when purchased). When consulting the CGC census on the book in question, there are 202 graded copies that are blue and only 3 qualified copies. I wish I could know why those 3 were qualified to get a sense if the glasses (or lackthereof) played a role.

Hi all, I had a question about how CGC grades books from the late 80's/90's (or any I suppose) that came with the 3-D glasses. Many of the times I find these without the glasses and I wondered if CGC gives the book a green label in these cases. Can anyone confirm? I mean, I know that ASM #238 without the tats is considered green label (or hit hard with a low grade blue label) and I also know a book missing a poster or pinup is treated the same way but was unsure if the 3-D glasses were. Curious because if I ever do send in my one Sheena Queen Of The Jungle 3-D comic (double cover too!), I would like to know what label I could expect.

I'll say! I bought a lot of 30 or so of his covers in 2019. Those same books are worth close to triple what I paid then, when looking them up on an individual basis. And a few of his covers like the Planet Comics and Space Vixens issues are much higher now than a few years ago. Well deserved for a great artist who was not with us long enough.

Pressing won't have any negative effects unless the presser is bad at their job. If doing for free, I would definitely say sure If charging you $10-20 per book, well that gets super expensive and is not worthwhile at all for these books. Especially if you are a reader collector and especially if you don't plan on reselling soon. The "damage" that the books currently show won't get worse (if stored properly) so I would not worry about pressing in this case.

6 for me Like many I undergraded the Supersnipe. I had 5.5 and convinced myself to go 5.0 I was also a grade lower on the Super Mystery. The rest, two bulls and one a grade under. I’m still in the “there a hole in hell zone” so I’ll take it

My nemesis! Hahaha, I was very excited to get it, along with some others in that auction that I think went for a song The Pep splash makes sense, as it def looks splash page-esque!
