ciorac Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Gotcha :thumbsup: The L at the top just made me think about that Ped. isnt it the second or third best ped behind Church and neck and neck with the Reilly/San Fran ped? I'd say that is pretty accurate. It has garnered a lot of cache in the hobby. So many big books, and variety in the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KEY ISSUES Comics Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 No scans yet, but my latest submission arrived. Most were pleasant surprises, which more than make up for the 3 "major" disappointments. As usual, it's my expected grade listed first, then followed by the actual grade. X-MEN #94 - 7.5 (6.5) AVENGERS #33 - 9.0 (8.0) MARVEL SPOTLIGHT #4 - 9.2 (8.5) Those were the 3 major disappointments.... A couple of surprises/mild disappointments amongst the following, but overall VERY pleased. FF #167 - 9.2 (9.4) X-MEN #134 - 9.4 (9.6) X-MEN #266 - 9.0 (9.6) (thumbs u X-MEN #266 - 9.4 (9.8) X-MEN #266 - 9.4 (9.8) NEW MUTANTS #87 - 9.4 (9.6) NEW MUTANTS #98 - 9.4 (9.6) ASM #300 - 6.5 (8.0 SP) ASM #300 - 7.5 (8.5) (thumbs u ASM #300 - 9.0 (9.6) ASM #252 - 9.0 (9.6) ASM #252 - 9.0 (9.8) X-MEN #94 - 3.0 (2.5) AVENGERS #32 - 9.0 (9.2) (thumbs u STANGE TALES #72 - 6.0 (6.0) ACTION COMICS #252 - 3.0 (3.0) That restored ASM #300 really surprised me since I got it from what I thought was an OO collection.... And I cannot believe I got an ASM #300 9.6. I'm usually good at identifying the higher grade stuff, but this one didn't make my cut for anything above 9.0-9.2. I'll take it!
