gona? what? learn how to spell and construct proper sentences and paragraphs?

Both books purchased from Flaming_Telepath He graded the #136 a 9.0 and the #137 a 9.2 I guess the wanker can grade

that was what was special about the direct market books. They didn't have to have anything for a UPC box if a) they wanted to present a cover image with nothing to detract from it and b) they just didn't want to use one From 1991 on, on most direct market books, they didn't use the spidey head, but rather began celebrating anniversarys of titles; ex. FF 30th for 1991, X-Men 30th for 1993 and so on. Really there was no rhyme or reason other than they could and as for #58.... why mess up this?

issue #68

If this has not been answered to general satisfaction, I would like to chime in: I think the UPC is the first print. The Spidey-face UPC is direct. And Black Spidey-face is 2nd and maybe third print. Can anyone back this up? If it has the Black spidey on upc will it say inside that its second printing? And what about the direct edition with upc bar? It does state inside that it is a second print. There was no direct edition with UPC bar. K so I am a bit confused. Here is a book that says direct edition with a upc code on it. And when you say black spidey do you mean this one or is this the face one? Reason I ask is because I have a bunch of these black spidy faces and I looked at the text and there is no mention of second printing in them. Btw I am assuming that this is the spidey face normal one. They started doing the UPC codes with Direct edition written in the box in the mid 90s. Issue #138 is the beginning of this. Before then, the direct books had either spidey's head, Captain america's head or some other character or artwork. That is indeed the Black Spidey head. The G.I. Joe #21 direct market first print had the normal Spider-Man Face (White with Black Webbing design). The later prints have The all black Spider-Man Face. Issue #23 is the first issue who's first printing had the all black Spidey face. This ran until around the time spidey went back to his old costume, then the direct editions went back to the normal Spidey face. That is indeed the normal spidey face here is a scan of a direct first print. Remember, all-black spidey face is second or third direct print.

Sharon - One other thing I could add is that many of us around here (with darn few exceptions) are ADD when it comes to purchasing comics......., give it five minutes and we are chasing after some other shiny new bauble that has caught our eye, and have forgotten our fleeting interest in that other book....., whatever it was......, I don't remember......, Mike shiny new bauble :cloud9:

You were distant that whole weekend and I told you what you wanted to hear. For me it's just books not my livelihood. I don't want to ruin the persons rep like what happened to poor ghastly even though he was in the wrong. We want to hear about Tahoe. the video is on youtube

I think the seller needs to be outed

Excellent. I would have used a few more swear words, though. It's the new, kinder, gentler FT...you :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:

You work discounts? Yeah, he does

discounts

Mike, what is this all in reference to? Arex see the thread about a certain former Silver herald of Galactus who was also a Surfer

Kudos to Flaming_Telepath for the undergraded What Ifs and MegaKudos to the Mail Service for the ground shipping from the UK that arrived in California in 6 days :o (worship)

Kudos to jonjesper for the sweet modern drek

Yup. That's getting my vote. Post one new thread a day. Or add to one thread a day. The beauty of this is that you then can break your sales items down into as many threads as you think appropriate, given their nature, but you can't pimp more than one at a time. (thumbs u unless somebody bumps the various threads then we still end up with one person owning the front page

Kudos to dzminn (thumbs u for the great books Shipped fast and safe Thanks Dave!

Fixed that for ya JazzMan

More than two in my opinion. And just to be clear, I politely mentioned Dale's three threads in one day and why it might not be a good idea. He has decided to be pretty bullheaded about the matter...very similiar to what happened in his other pulled sales thread. Jim Oh, there's a surprise. Tell you what...I'm going to start a new thread every time I have more than twenty books to sell. I'll have the whole front page all to myself, 24/7. Or I could decide to be reasonable and fair to everyone else and just keep using the same thread until it reaches...oh, let's say 270 pages. 270 pages of drek :cloud9: That's the point...it's not all been drek. I've posted a Batman #84 in there, Neal Adams X-Men, FF from about #20 through to #200...and just about anything inbetween. Ah, what's the ing point...be on the look-out for as many threads as I feel like starting on any given evening. (thumbs u (worship) (worship)
