  1. Anyone out there. :cry: (Shouts into the wind.)

    Am I the only one collecting theses things now. (shrug)

     

    Anyway it should be obvious I am not really after super high grade on these right now, though 7.5 seems to be my low cut off point at the moment.

    After I fill in most of my holes I will worry about upgrading them.

     

    So what are the hard to get in grade books from this run? 1-93.

    I know 1-66 are new and 67-93 are reprints. I know Neal Adams did a few covers, but which books are the most difficult to acquire besides #1-10?

     

    If you are looking for 7.5 or under, it shouldn't be hard to find any of these books. It's when you get to 9.4 or higher, that it get's a little tough to find them. Out of the 11-93 run; 73, 74 and 79 are the toughest to find in 9.0 or higher. And they get very pricey in those grades.

  2. WOW.

    No silver X-Men post since before Christmas.

    Well I am starting to move over into the Silver age from the Bronze so that will change.

     

    Here is a book I just purchased from Steve Borock this morning before the ascension. lol

    Great book, Arcade. Welcome to the Silver Age Arena. :applause:

  3. Sweet books, John!!

     

    Thanks Casey!

     

    So are you still upgrading your x-men books?

     

    Ever going to Turn your #1 into a 9.4?... :insane:

     

    Here and there. If I see a book that strikes my fancy, I'll pick it up but I'm not going all out like I was when I was putting my run together. I highly doubt that I'll upgrade my #1 unless I resubmit the one I have and it comes back 9.4.

     

    Since your are done your x-men collection, what are you collecting now?

     

    any new runs?

     

    Well, i'm not entirely done with the x-men. I still have a few holes in the modern end of my run and I continue to collect after 500. Not sure what else I will collect. X-men crossovers for one. Looking for inspiration. And will be cutting my budget for other expenses.
