    I guess I'm not surprised, but it seems to me a lot of folks here are reading a LOT into a 4 minute newscast.

    So it looked sucky and when you got it even more sucky?

    The top staple can't be seen because as timfinz thought, the book is not open at the centerfold. The centerfold is the next page over. I don't see any issues with the staples. I see both top and bottom staples in the pictures, they don't appear damaged and haven't popped or pulled through.

    That's quite a score! I think a 4.0 sounds reasonable.

    There's 2 in Golden.

    I'm late again. Perhaps my subconscious desire was not to post these due to their shameful condition. I'm joking, but this thread has been a good reminder for me which issues I'd like to upgrade. I have a tendency to forget after I finish a run and file them away. Oh - and #87 has got to be one of Jack's least-inspired covers of the run.

    Mute nostril agony.

    When I've needed to clean used Bandai Godzilla and Ultraman kaiju figures I've picked up, I've mostly used a microfiber cloth, a toothbrush, water and a pinch of dish soap. There are also natural, non-abrasive cleaners like Seventh Generation, which I believe is sold in Canada.

    That first page isn't Ditko, though it's modeled after his conception of inter-dimensional worlds. Marie Severin and/or Dan Adkins? Just looked it up, I was close. Tom Palmer and Dan Adkins.

    Speaking of Barnes and Barnes, one half of the duo, Robert Haimer, just passed away a few weeks ago. The other half, Bill Mumy, AKA Will Robinson, is still alive and well.

    I like to imagine the band sounds like this:

    As usual, sound, solid advice from zzutak.

    Missed a day. My 80s are a mixed bag with some nice copies and others that were picked up so I could read them but still haven't been upgraded.

    Seriously? You're posting specious listing results to support your claim. I don't know what shenanigans were going on with this seller and listing, but ebay's sold listings show the same book sold twice on the same day by the same seller for bizarre amounts. If you look at the book under his feedback thread, yet another hammer price is listed, this time for $140.
