jcronin Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Just curious. Why are the newsstand GI Joe #21s listed for such high prices when the early 80s had no shortage of newsstand issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are still less common than the direct market ones and are typically harder to find in high grade... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re correct, not the hardest book to find in newsstand. 9.8’s that get listed on eBay are around 1 out of 3 for a newsstand. I like the 8.5 Canadian in auction right now.

Ceito Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Hello to all.. I didn't have these particular ones in my previous collection, but i had #21, and remember buying it at my LCS. I've got these in my possession now, and if i remember correctly, the 9.2 is a first print like the 9.6. These are identical in each way. I've done research, and as i recall, 3rd print #21's have the black spidey head in the UPC area, and the reach for the stars 'blue' back cover with Cap as well. I'm 'assuming' that the 9.2 was mislabeled as a 3rd print. My question is how could this be labeled as a 3rd print book? Any help, and comments would be greatly appreciated. My apologies if i posted this incorrectly in this thread as i didn't know where else to ask.

Comixroc Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 (edited) Hey guys. Could use some Joe help here. I tried looking for the Joe thread in Modern, but could not find it. So forgive me if I’m posting in the wrong thread. I’m trying to decide if this book is worth grading. I believe it’s #34, Red Foil, Graham Cracker variant. I understand it was limited to 1,000?🤔. Anyway, I’d say it’s in 9.2-9.4. Is it worth getting certified or signed? Edited April 19, 2020 by Comixroc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubmonkey Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 If it were a 9.8 I would say it was worth it. As a 9.2 or 9.4 I don’t think it would be worth more than the cost of slabbing so unless demand sky rockets I would leave raw... philsbackpack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAR1979 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) My random GI Joe thoughts: #2 is my favorite in the series, always has been. After all these years it's still a great read. Glad I picked up a 9.8 years back. I recall at a con I attended in the late 90's JHV had short box full of 1's for $2 each un-bagged. I picked up one of the copies I felt was in nicest condition. Had it slabbed in 2000, it received a 9.8 (old school label!) and have kicked myself in the arse ever since for not grabbing a few more that I thought were equal in grade to mine.
