I really don't get it. Why don't you just collect old Penthouse or Hustler issues? At least some of those books are arousing.
Why not collect mens underwear catalogs instead of super hero comics? (shrug)

 

lol

 

 

I fear that uber high grade means >9.4,

but here are some of my u-comix slabs.

click the image below for a slideshow:

Cherry Poptart #1 CGC 9.8 W - (1 of only 5 in highest grade)

Won't be only 5 for much longer. ;)

In fact with any luck the entire Cherry core series should all have a 9.8. :whee:

well not everyone has the patience to collect truly rare books in 9.8, like Chew... :whistle:

When I worked at a comic store, I always wondered why these guys would pay $3-4 for a porno comic, when they could get a Hustler/Penthouse for a couple bucks more. Buy a video fer christ's sake, at least it's got real people in it.

 

And when did porno comics become undergrounds? That's insulting to UGs. People just trying to justify their porn collection I guess.

Underground comix have had sex and nudity in them from the very beginning. Have you ever read or seen Crumb? They were purchased in headshops and were not meant for the faint of heart and prudes. I think the main difference that you're failing to understand is that these "porno" comics are not used in the same way that a hustler or a penthouse would be used. I collect Cherry because I appreciate the talents of Larry Welz. The art is gorgeous and the stories are funny. It was very ballsy to do what he did. I guess I can only speak for myself but I've never used these comics for "arousal" purposes.

 

"Porno comics, in general (like Eros). So no, not all of the books in this thread. "

 

BTW - I have no idea what "Eros" is. So I can't speak to that title. Maybe you know more about "porno" comics than I do...

Not uber HG, but a peach nonetheless:

HG for undergrounds is accepted as being around 8.5, so it is a nice HG copy. I like it, anyway. (thumbs u
