  1. Keep in mind the big upsurge in prices that happened during the pandemic is over and prices are settling close to where they were in 2019. GPA shows the 12 month average for #1 in 8.0 is $270, 90 day average is $244 and last sale was $230. With the reprint #4 and mid-grade #107 consider yourself in good shape if you make back your slabbing cost.
  2. I wouldn't mind a nicer copy of this one but it's low on the upgrade pole.
  3. I wouldn't consider the lower prices a crash but rather a correction or readjustment. Comics and collectibles across the board had an unprecedented run-up during the pandemic, around 2021-2022, and since last year have been stabilizing and returning to 2019-2021 levels. You might be interested in this thread: Furthermore, Fantastic Four in general saw some big leaps after Marvel got the film rights back in 2019. While movie-hype books invariably dip down after film's release, I'd attribute lower FF #4 prices to the current market correction more than Wakanda Forever.
  4. There's always an inherent risk in re-submitting a 9.8, especially for Sig Series. I don't think that I would do it, especially given the CGC QC issues that have been going on for a while now, but it entirely depends on how important the 9.8 is to you.
  5. Okay, one more and then it's time to pack it in. Journey Into Mystery #64, apparent VG. There's a small glue tear seal on Rorgg's back by his middle leg. There's also smears of something on the back cover, only visible in raking light. $90.
  6. I think Mark Haspel was involved in some way. That's what I heard anyway. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) I always thought it was an offshoot/subsidiary of Clink. I've never seen those stickers anywhere else. https://cvacomics.com/the-cva-team/
  7. So I missed 10/56 Forward in the title but already scanned these from earlier in '56.
  8. He also drew breasts in tight fitting clothing quite well.
