And look for her in the Jan HA Sig. Killer book - congrats! You get you $'s worth on this one, not just 1 but 4 babes on the cover! Question: If it's her wrist that's sprained, why is he holding her?

Popular Post Darwination Posted November 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2023 Got excited when I saw a 3.0 at Comiclink of the issue saying one of 2 graded copies.

Darwination Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 (edited) Depicting the lead story involving the prospect of kissing cousins, infidelity, pregnancy, and blackmail. Johnny's just no good. There's a confusing change in hair color of the heroine (red on the cover and splash, blonde everywhere else). I'd guess it's a Dana Dutch script, but it's not listed as such at the GCD. https://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=17306 Edited November 29, 2023 by Darwination comicnoir and Point Five 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Yeah, looking at the ish now, it says both. I think people tend to check such claims anyways - I know I do. Price: $600 (pending) Condition: CGC 3.0 GVG Census Rank: 2nd Highest Graded Census Highlight: One of the Top 2 Graded Overall! Page Quality: Cream to Off-White Pages Type of Holder: Universal Degree Of Restoration: Unrestored Pedigree or Highlight: One of only 2 Graded by CGC! Really, I was just hoping to smoke out some super sweet copy one of these mooks around here likely is holding so I could see it in high grade. Looks like a 7.5 and 7.0 are the top two of the ten in the census I did see a 7.0 of #17 sell there in the last auction, too, a fun cover ($3,734): comicnoir, Sqeggs, pmpknface and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does say both that it was one of only 2 graded and also one of the 2 highest graded. About the only thing I don't like about ComicLink's stuff is that the descriptions/info can be off at times. I've seen it happen a few times, and I usually do check the info on the slab to make sure it matches with what is being stated as being sold.

LadyDeath Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Potential dumb question: Is manually searching titles (i.e. "Pictorial") in exchange/auction the only way to find Bakers listed on ComicLink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try going to advanced and searching "Baker" in the description. It's what I do for LB Cole books, but it's not always 100% accurate. With some of the more obscure covers there's no description. Besides that, it's looking at every listing. Unless anyone else has a better way??? LadyDeath 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless anyone else has a better way??? That works, infinitely better than what I was doing. I looked at the advanced search before but glossed over putting his name in the description. Thought I had to fill out all the information fields so I didn't bother. Admittedly I'm not super familiar with ComicLink and just started using it recently.
