whisp Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hey guys. Just roughly wanted to get an idea of how much you think it will cost me to pick up the rest of these books. ARAH 2,15,16,17,19,22,23,27,28,87,88,94,95,106,127,129,132,133,154 GI Joe 3D 1,4,5,6 European missions 2,3,4,5,13,14,15 Digest Magazines 10,11 GI Joe special 1 Looking at 9.2 range raw first prints. I know 154 and special 1 are probably the costly ones of the group. Just looking at roughly how much it is going to complete the rest of what I want for GI Joe books and if there is any other books I am unaware of in that list that might be hard to get other then the special and 154. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theskunk33-migration Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 #2 isn't that hard to find in a higher grade but may be pricey...the #5 and #6 3D books are tricky to find in any grade, and you would probably be paying a decent price for higher grade ( I don't collect high grade so I'm guessing but maybe at least $50 each for 9.2?). What are you trying to complete? If you consider the so much fun #63 part of what your finishing that would be really pricey in 9.2 (good and very good quality go for $80 or so). The rest shouldn't be that difficult to find Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whisp Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 so much fun#63? What book is that? I am trying to finish my 80's joe collection. I am getting close. I am sure I will find the 3d joe books for not that bad of a price. Found the others at $1 each. Just have to be patient and keep eyes open. #2 I am assuming probably $10. The rest should be all $2 roughly except the 154 which I assuming in the 40-50 range. I know the special will be the most costly book. After that is done going to hunt down 2nd and third prints but I havnt worked on putting together a master list for that. #2 is done I think since I have large and small 75 centers of that.

Theskunk33-migration Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 There was a company reprinting comics in the 80s called "So much fun". They did a reprint of GI Joe #63- most would consider it the "third" print of this book, as there is a first and second print by Marvel. There were apparently like 5000 printed- they are around but rare. You can tell the difference by the "so much fun" box where the UPC would be, and the "Classic" written on the cover under the "GI Joe" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Smooth Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Anyone have a photo of the GI Joe 21 9.9? I want it as the lock screen on my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest shouldn't be that difficult to find Hope this helps The most difficult ones to find will be the issue 4 of the 3D series with the number 2 printed on it instead of 4. The how to draw series #3 isn't easy. And #6 in the 3D set can be tough. Nothing impossible, but don't come up for sale too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney414 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Here are some pictures of my new sketch cover by Robert Atkins. He started it at Baltimore Comic Con with pencils, but there was too much detail to finish. So he told me he'd finish it at NYCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not know Atkins was going to be there or I would have had someone get me a sketch. I had A-DONIS talked into grabbing me a couple of the GI Joe #1 Con Exclusives and he messaged me back and was like "Want Atkins to do you a SS CGC on the number 1?" Ah, hell yeah! I love Atkins work! Got these quite a while ago: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chip Cataldo Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 What issues of ARAH (or 80's Joe in general) are desirable? I'm thinking of going back out to the 33-cent guy one last time as he had a lot of them. Last trip I snagged a #46, 50, 53, 100, four copies of #150 and #152. In previous trips I got 3 copies of #63, another #46, two copies of #2 that turned out to be 2nd prints (blah) and something else that wasn't #21. He didn't have that issue (or #1) AFAIK. Thanks in advance for any help. Peace, Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you ever get your #21 in 9.8??? You know, of all people, I never did. Looking at the census, I don't think it would be difficult at this point.

Theskunk33-migration Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I am fairly certain that I have found a #21 SECOND print. Came today off EBay. It has black spidey on cover, without any indication on the first page/indicia. This may answer this question once and for all?
