Hello all 

I have a whole bunch of books (93) listed in this month’s Comiclink Featured Auction.

SA to Moderns - all are CGC graded, ranging from 6.5 to 9.8. There’s quite a few Marvel Picture Frames, including a few tough ones. ASMs, FF, Hulk, IM, Subby titles all represented. 

Books will be listed below in alpha numeric order as direct links. That is NOT necessarily the order they will end in the auction. 

NOTE: The listings with a *** are part of a small OO collection that @Hey Kids, Comics! and @joeypost went in on with me. Big shout out and thanks to them! More to come from those in the next couple of auctions!

As always, thanks for looking!

Hardly a new thing. Remember all the warehouse finds of the past?

Books start closing tonight

This book is new in my collection in that while searching for my older Charlton Blue Beetles this morning, I found it in a box of miscellaneous Gold Key, Charlton, etc. I have no recollection of purchasing this book, which is odd, for how hard these are to find. I'm looking at my Gold Key inventory sheet - no Scarecrow #2 in sight.

Reminds me of a story I told to @crassus last month - I'm staring at my SA Green Lantern inventory sheet, and it says I don't have #60. I'm thinking that can't be right - it's #59 that I don't have, and I've been actively bidding on #59s for the past year, and scheming on how I can possibly afford one. But my inventory sheet says I have a VF- copy of #59. Whelp - time to hit the boxes and solve this mystery. Yup - I have a VF- copy of #59 and no copy of #60. No recollection of when or where I picked up the GL #59, but I'm guessing it was here on the boards.

That’s a not so easy to find book in that shape 

I’ve only seen a few at shows, and nowhere near that nice…

Define young.  I don't see anyone in that crowd that is under 35 with most over 50.  I was going to ask if they prevented women from buying a ticket but I think I see one in the back of a couple pictures.

I was there. Both in the main dealers’ room and the swap meet room, there were more than a few twenty-somethings, and there were quite a few women as well.

Another reason may be because there are only (4) 9.8's on the census. That won't last long after this sale.

I think it might be a registry collector. More copies will surface now. It wasn't just one person.  Reminds me of Marvel Team-Up 131 with a black cover (first White Rabbit) when the census had only a couple in 9.8 and now 62!!!!

There won’t be 62 copies of this book in 9.8.

Might approach 10-12, and even that will be a stretch.

Hello All 

I have a dozen high grade and not so high grade key/nice books listed in ComicLink’s Winter Featured Auction. 

Books are listed below alphabetically (not the order they end in the auction), with direct links. Any questions about them, please message me. All books (with the exception of ASM 194 and TOS 39) were worked on by @joeypost

THE BOOKS:

Amazing Adventures 4 CGC 9.8 oww - Inhumans, Black Widow solo stories

Amazing Spider-Man 41 CGC 7.5 ow - 1st appearance of the Rhino

Amazing Spider-Man 194 CGC 9.8w - newsstand edition

Avengers 4 CGC 7.5 ow - 1st SA Appearance of Captain America. Sharp copy

Avengers 72 CGC 9.6w - 1st appearance of the Zodiac. Captain Marvel appearance

Avengers 97 CGC 9.4w - Conclusion of the Kree-Skrull war. Black picture frame Marvel. Tough in grade.

Conan the Barbarian 22 CGC 9.6 oww - Barry Smith cover/art

Ewoks 10 CGC 9.6w - newsstand copy - I thought this was a 9.8. Still do.

Fantastic Four 123 CGC 9.6 oww - Picture frame Marvel. Silver Surfer & Galactus appearances. Sweet copy.

Human Torch 5 CGC 9.8w - not the greatest wrap, but a surprisingly tough book to find in high grade

Tales of Suspense 39 CGC 6.5 oww - 1st appearance Tony Stark & Iron Man. Copy is an absolute stunner for the given grade. Structurally a 9.0+, but CGC hammered it for the FC stain due to minor color loss. In my humble opinion, it should be sitting a half grade, even a full grade higher. The stain is not that egregious in hand…This is likely one of the the best copies in-grade you will ever find.

X-men 107 CGC 9.4w - 1st appearance Starjammers

That’s it for this month.

As always, thanks for looking!

I witnessed this epic moment!

If you were talking to Joey at the time I now have a face to go with a username 

Last few books are ending this week, starting tonight

My first time going. Glad that I went…I had a good time. Bought a few cheap raw books which made the trip worthwhile, and picked up a book for a friend from Harley.

The half mile walk back and forth from my hotel to the festivities was a welcome bit of exercise, until it wasn’t. 
 

Nice seeing @greggy,  @joeypost,  @Gsims718,  @ciorac

I recognized a few other faces, and probably walked by a whole slew of Boardees and didn’t even know it.

I was the dork with the little flashlight 🫣

I can't picture the guy, but the name sounds familiar. My Google-Fu is not turning up anything other than pics of the Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons.
