Once again thanks for the positive feedback on the Avengers #2 guys.

 

Jason, the back cover isn't as good as the front but there's still only a few small defects rather than anything major. There's a slight stain, water mark about 3/4 of the way up the back cover edge which can only be seen on close inspection and measures about 1cm by 1.5 cm. you can only just see the outline of this stain it's not solid. Then in the top spine edge corner there's some slight flecking of ink. To be honest I can't tell if someone's tapped the end of pen lightly on the back or wether its an original printing ink defect. These few specks once again only occur in an area measuring 1cm by 1cm. Maybe these things were enough to bring the grade down or there is something more on the the interior. But I'm still obviously more than happy with the overall presentation of the book for a 7.5, I also paid nearly a couple of hundred bucks less than the last GPA sale of a 7.5 so got a great deal. Even though the last may sale of the book is quite high.

I've been wanting this particular book...

(the Beth, pedigree one. Since I really am just fond of Bethlehems for so many reasons and its tied with only one other as the highest graded thus far)

...for quite some time now. Finally just decided to pul the trigger before its locked up somewhere.

 

Such a fricken awesome cover imho.

Here are my recent Silver Surfer acquisitions. My goal is to get all 18 original issues, although numbers 1 and 4 will be tougher given how expensive they are. So far I've got 9 down, 9 to go.

 

That is a great series to complete. Half way there!

The Sgt. Fury #1 is the exact type of book I'd look for on a Marvel key - nicely presenting mid-grade copy with great pages. Love it.

 

I'm on the hunt for a white paged Avengers #2 after passing on a copy last month; that's a nice looker, as well.

 

Love that SgtFury1 and definitely one of the toughest keys to find. I just picked up a copy for my vault!! Note there is a 9.0 in this month's CLink auction :cloud9:

I do love my Sgt Fury #1. Thats a great 7.0 with nice white pages. Think I'll have to stick with my copy for now as don't think the 9.0 will go cheaply. Be interesting to watch the auction though

Save for one of the 9.8s (Boston), pretty sure most, if not all the 9.6s and 9.8s are File Copies

 

And if you look at the numbering on all 3 copies posted, they were sent in at the same time.
