Amazing Spidey Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Those look like nice high grade copies. Those creepy yearbooks were tough for me to find in high grade. And that vampi annual is so underrated. It is her origin issue. I think it is just as key to have as issue 1. Congrats! You have some great reading ahead of you.

Happy more people don't realize how tough Warren horror mags are to find in high grade yet,one day they will get their due. I mean isn't it crazy that you can find a Creepy #1 in 9.0 or above for less than 200 dollars? Or a Vampirella #1 in 9.2 for less than a thousand dollars? Insane to me,but kind of glad that I can pick up these gems before they get noticed more by the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing Spidey Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I agree. I think a lot of collectors don't realize that these mags have great art by many many of the greats of the silver/Bronze Age. Where else can you get Colan, Ditko and Wood all in one issue? Not to mention Marcos, Wrightson, Kaluta -the list goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magelsa Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Wow - those Planet of the Apes copies look fabulous. Where did you get these from? I've been looking for a top condition copy of #9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickamabob Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I have 30+ double cover comic books but this is my 1st double cover magazine. That's interesting because I have a double-cover Mad from the same time period (issue #184). I'll take a pic next time I am sorting through the issues. It's really a shame your copy of that double-cover Mad isn't in better condition, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really a shame your copy of that double-cover Mad isn't in better condition, huh? I was actually surprised how nice it was when I received it. The seller graded it a 6.0 but it's much better than that. I'm thinking 9.2-9.4 with a press. He must have been grading it on the outside cover only.

Sounds like 1976 to 1978 is a prime time period to look for double cover MAD magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were in a buying mood I would snag it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickamabob Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I was going through one of my magazine boxes today. Decided to re-group a lot of stuff, and take some fresh pictures. Here are some of the magazines in my collection (some new acquisitions, but most of them older). I am sparing you my collection of New Yorkers, National Lampoons, Games Magazines and other sentimental but not-that-interesting material. Instead, I will focus on the more out-there magazines I collect (and again, this is just some of what's in one box...). First up: Some of my #1 issues of cool but not notably valuable comics/magazines. It's fun to have some #1 issues. I wish I had a #1 Vampirella to add to this group (I had one, and foolishly sent it back to a seller because a cover tear wasn't disclosed. I should have just kept the dang thing).
