I was admiring this in your top 10 post, that is a nice yellow cover, congrats on the double cover!

Thanks I always liked the cover and when I saw a copy of it I had to buy it so a really nice surprise to find it was a double cover

Weird thing is with UK books they keep the original title.. so if you do submit it shouldn’t say Hulk 181. The inconsistency is definitely strange.. another thing we have found out is that magazine sized comics will still have the old style label (Title from other country) ... so the change has only effected comic sized books.

I'm actually submitting my Mighty world of marvel 198 and both Spanish La Masa’s soon so we shall see how it pans out

That’s just weird and confuses the matter even more with all other foreign reprints being labelled the same as there Us count apart apart from the uk marvels what means if they where just labelling them all the same to skip corners and save time they would do the same with the uk marvels 

I find not labeling the books there original titles ridiculous I don’t want to send of foreign books and have them labelled as originals because you don’t want to upset the person by calling there book a reprint I’d rather have a mighty world of marvel 198 what’s labelled that and reprint of hulk 181 as written on the case then hulk 181 first appearance of Wolverine your just lying to the owner by mislabelling it and also altering the numbers in the census 

My first thoughts on this was despite the grades both being the same uk variants are very hard to get in high grades considering the low print run the amount of copies I imagine where quite low and then to add to that some probably got damaged in shipping and then how many people truly looked after these books if you think about it Bronze Age are getting rarer to find in high grades but pence copies in high grade are near impossible let alone silver age pence copies 

It doesn’t appear to break colour so it’s worth pressing if it will get a 9.8 is impossible to say without photos of the front and back 

Hi I thought I’d post this here and see if any fellow star was fans could help me I’m looking at getting my Star Wars The Clone Wars comics signed by some voice actors who signatures I’d like and sending it to Cgc for grading but cannot find anyone who can help facilitate a signing for the voice actors I’m looking for if anyone could point me in the direction of who I could contact to make this happen I would greatly appreciate it thank you 

I like the old judge dredd comics so I bought a couple of the books collecting them together and managed to get this one signed by the writer who created dredd and one of the artists and asked how much a sketch would cost he said he couldn’t do a full sketch because he had to go but would do a quick one for free what was nice and this is how it turned I couldn’t have been happier with the results of the sketch

Cool club.  

Mine has a slight difference:

 

That’s really cool normally you see Stan lees signature but you don’t see to many of Joe Sinnotts I’ve noticed 

Honestly I don’t mind paying the same amount for both but if someone wants to list a pence variant lower out of snobbery then that’s fine with me that’s there own fault 

Thanks it is a nice one hardly ever see pence for the early dr strange issues of strange tales 

Book is complete and all firmly attached to the staples is in nice condition in general 

Thanks I didn’t know if they had separated the two or not because how they label the uk price variants 

Okay I’m probably missing something obvious but does anyone here have a link to the pence variants for Fantastic Four in the census if so that would be much appreciated thank you 

honestly it’s just a pence variant it’s a mistake probably a fair few collectors have made at some point I never had this because my first comic was a pence issue this one isn’t worth grading that’s not to say that pence copies are inferior to cents just in this case the grade is to low to justify any value and it being a common comic as well 

With that back cover I’d be at a 2.5 max I doubt you can fix that

Count me in.

Beautiful copy I knew the where more collectors on the boards with a copy just getting them to post them it’s got to be Kirbys best cover along with 67 and 72 in my opinion

I’m in!

I have a full “Marvel”, but Benjy’s a bit cropped.

Beautiful copy and you seem to have the same wrap on your copy as mine 

Been trying to work out what grade this would get the insides are all nice and tight the cover has some wear to it but the second front cover is in better condition. Sorry about the images can take some more if you need. Thanks in advance

I have to pick up another FF72 and get the matching custom label for it.

One I need to definitely pick up for my run hopefully they won’t retire the label before I have a chance to get it 

Also what’s with the wrap on this issue you never see the full logo box with all four on the front I’ve found
