He's been a busy beaver, deleting mutliple board posts, especially over in Dealers/Ebay Selling Forum. Here's a few that are still up: PGM NM98 https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/462145-pgm-nm98/ My NM98 is for sale on ebay: https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/462266-raw-new-mutants-98-nm-1-3-days-no-reserve/?tab=comments#comment-10991183 9.6 NM98 on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2011-The-New-Mutants-98-1st-Deadpool-KEY-NM-HIGH-GRADE-1-NR-N-MINT-/293408110015?_trksid=p2349526.m4383.l10137.c10&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true

I can’t see this pulling a 5.0 with the all the edge wear and tanning, looks more like a 4.0 to me. The spine looks a bit delicate. I see two small splits at the top and bottom, but in the photo of the open cover, it almost looks like it’s split from the bottom up to the staple. Is that just the photo?

Yup. The white edges are the sharp white edges of a 9.8. Look at other copies with a CU of the corners.

I forgot that Bedrock already posted an Astonishing #53. Oh well. Dupes are inevitable, hard to keep track when a thread gets longer.

For later issues, Daredevil #156.

There's been multiple pressings of that record. As with funnybooks, condition of both vinyl and jacket in addition to the pressing has a big impact on value. That said, I'd probably buy it all day long for $5 regardless.

Okay, I've put on my straw boater and I'm changing my name to Doofus. I've just posted a scan of the correct Spellbound #17, the one that belongs to me. I initially posted an old scan on the computer that I probably pulled from the boards a decade ago.

I'm an idjit! I just pulled mine from the box and it's not. I'll post a new scan tomorrow, I grabbed the scan from my computer and thought it was. I've had several over the years that I've sold, but maybe this was an internet scan I grabbed long ago?

I made it before shutdown!

Get well soon Joe!

It's a tough call. Sticking with Gold/Atom and without going through my boxes, this one keeps leaping to mind:

Hooray for me!

The new one will be #50; this thread is an old one about #49 that was resurrected.

When I was growing up, the FIRST page of a comic was the splash page. I never heard full panel pages used elsewhere in a comic refered to as such. The modern day trend to refer to a 3 panel page with 1 big panel as a splash is terrifically annoying.
