  1. WOW link 2 of my faves in one slab Cage & Flash
  2. I was inspired by a good many of the artists you included in your journal here. As you invited us to share work we've down, here is one of my ballpoint pen drawings, from a series of (imaginary) Monumental Natural Formations I did back in the day.
  3. This thread is just awesome on so many levels Michael. The range of life experiences of the members of this board is astonishIng. Bravo!
  4. Odd that GPA doesn't really differentiate between the two. The seller is looking to double what he paid. Optimistic
  5. I just noticed there are 2 Famous Funnies #2's - separated by different publication dates (what I get for doing this at work) So why doesn't GPA distinguish them - or do they . . . Help!
  6. I'm mystified about something. A seller on ebay has Famous Funnies #2 CGC 4.0 for sale and claims it is the only existing copy on the census , which is supported by it, but GPA shows many copies selling over the years. I am under the impression that all the books on GPA are certified by CGC, so why is there a difference in the number of graded copies differ in the CGC census vs GPA? I asked the seller why he claimed it was the only copy in existence, but I'm still mystified by the differences in the two censuses. Wassup with this GAtor? ebay listing
  7. So your avatar would suggest
  8. Did that one in your siggy line ever make it's way into a slab? Inquiring minds (well, at least one, mine) want to know.
  9. Boing Show me ONE Marvel cover from the 60's that comes anywhere close this cover and I'll eat a slab. Infantino + Anderson = brilliant
  10. This is a cool! Great idea. And looking at this photo from the series in the 60's, they did a great job casting Barbara Gordon (forgot her name).
  11. You sold me the WW #29 "D" copy, in the 21-40 run I'm working on

  13. Posted this in the GA Group Shot Thread, but I'm also posting it here and will add individual shots of each shortly. A group shot of my Wonder Woman collection #'s 1 through 20. #1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 16, 17, 18, 19 & 20 are "D" Copies
  14. Thanks! Later on, I'm going to post them all individually in the "WW All The Time". Bob

  16. I see some of my fan club is out and about tonight - thanks all
  17. Behold, a Christmas present to myself, another Wonder Woman "D" copy this #35, courtesy of a fellow board member whom I managed to pry this from his somewhat hesitant fingers.
  18. I can't deny I too was disappointed with this choice.
  19. Acc. to GPA SC #22 in 7.0 was a $2000 book from 2002-2007, then there is a $9000 sale in 2009 and then it went back to being a $6000-7000 book in 2012. Just follow the graph. It's still at a strong number compared to 2007. People lose perspective when focusing on the movie run-up. When you look at it, that is QUITE and increase in only 5 years (from 2007-2012). An the price, while lower than before, during and immediately after the movie, it never went back to the lows prior to the flick. I'm saying I think it would never have risen that fast without the movie stimulating the market. But I think you made the point very well with your research.
  20. But by your own words they lift the prices that usually never return to the prices before the movie. So by this they do significantly effect the market, more that most anything. The other thing is when a series suddenly gets a hot creative team and/or plot line. So I think it's safe to say the effect on prices movies have is pretty strong. But I think this only applies to mainstream characters. I don't think JCOM caused a spike in the value of Koraks.
  21. I hear ya,but the only difference is Spider-Man and X-men were still huge at the box office. Green Lantern was lukewarm at best. We will see another Ted movie before we see another Green Lantern movie. Who really cares if there is a movie or not,if you love the character,and you want the 1st appearance.Isn't that what matters? Bob-a-loo wanted to know why Showcase #22 has had soft prices of late. I am pretty sure the movies now control the market,as Avengers #1 and #4 are big examples of this. It is what it is. Iron Man #55 will now go on to unseen prices. That is true CC, I did ask that. And you're going to have to forgive us, we're a bunch of foaming fan-boys when it comes to defending GL, but that's how we roll here (speaking only for myself of course, but fee free to join me).
