  1. ..and no, I wasn't going to buy the OAAW 124, I just wanted to let you all know about in case there was someone who wanted it.
  2. Not aware of the title but that's one cool cover. It's very realistic. Congrats! Yeah, I like that very much!
  3. Steve, I'm not sure if you were trying to buy it, but you didn't post a

  5. I just wanted to let you guys know that Ted from Superworld has a sales thread on the boards right now. The only war book is a good one: OAAW 124 in CGC 9.2. Asking price is $400.
  6. Steve, nice one. Did you buy raw or slabbed? I don't remember seeing that anywhere. Tough as nails in that condition! Bought it slabbed, Mick, from Bob Storms at the SDCC last year. Took me a while to buy it. I really wanted it but we spent time haggling. Finally we reached an agreement. Paid a little above OSPG for it but Bob was kind enough to throw in the hard-cover edition of the latest OSPG and that sealed the deal. A little over OSPG seems like a great deal! Free Overstreet to boot??
  7. It's complicated. For a long time, 81 was considered the true first appearance. Some people still consider it to be the first app. Do you mind clarifying? That's not a question until you put a question mark in there. Don't expect an answer yet. Fixed! Great!! As Dave was explaining above, #81, if you opened up the cover and actually read the book, dealt with a character named Sgt. Rocky. It was noted in Overstreet for nearly forever that #81 was the first appearance of Sgt. Rock. Just looking at the cover of 81, it says "The Rock of Easy Co.", so that's where they got that idea from. As the creative teams were obviously working their way towards creating a great, long-lasting character, they hadn't quite hit it yet. So, so close, but Sgt. Rocky is not Sgt. Rock. #82 has a character in it, called Sgt. Rock. I think this is an extremely undervalued book, because it is the 1st Sgt. Rock. He's a minor character in one small story, and doesn't look or sound like Sgt. Rock. #83 is now known as the 1st true appearance of Sgt. Rock. Kanigher and Kubert finally got it right. The man that everyone knows and recognizes as Sgt. Rock is all through this book.

  9. Just had a very easy-peasy transaction with Ramon. I sent the money, he sent the book. The way it should be. Thanks buddy, will watch if you offer anything else up for sale. Andy
  10. I had a decent sized trade + cash deal with Roger. From my experience with our deal, he is quick, reliable, trustworthy, and thorough. Recommended.
  11. Phillip sold me a big book and it was easy-peasy. Thanks bud, Andy
