Grail acquired, run completed

:applause: Outstanding garry! Congratulations!

 

You're purdy slabbed run blows away my puny raw lot :cry: and it's an even more impressive achievement! (worship) (worship)

 

Don't sell your collection short mate, I've seen you post some really sweet books from your run :cloud9: and I only posted some of the nicer ones out of mine. I want to upgrade a bunch of them over time. Now the runs complete, I can do it at my leisure.

 

Thanks Garry :blush:

 

The upgrading is almost as much fun as assembling the original run...there's ALWAYS a nicer book :cloud9:

That is some serious dedication. Nice job. Just curious, how long did it take you?

 

From when I started to seriously get the back issues it probably took about 5 years. It would have been quicker if I wasn't trying to collect every other mainstream Marvel super hero title at the same time. :tonofbricks:

 

What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger. Well done.

Great job on completing the run! I've mentioned before that I "kind of" collect Avengers but not with as much gusto as other titles. (I tend to collect snippets of the run.)

 

Nice CGC books you have there!

1-503!?!?! that is simply stunning. How many CGC boxes does that take up?

 

Congrats!!!

 

Thanks, they're not all slabbed. I dread to think how many CGC boxes that would take. I'm aiming to get 1 - 100 slabbed and after that I may try for 100 - 200 slabbed but I'd draw the line there. :eek:
