Haven't studied them in awhile, gotta yank em out for more accurate grades.

ASM #17 8.0ish

ASM #18 8.0ish (one of the few books I bought when I was 13/14 that I had the foresight to get in decently high grade)

UXM #94 7.0ish =(

ASM #129 9.2-9.4ish (Thx calm-mix!)

Bonds, great books, but you've got some kind of death obsession - you really go for the, uh, macabre!

Funny that you mention that. I was just looking at the books tonight for the first time in a while, and I thought the exact same thing as you did. I've got some issues! insane.gif

I was bored so I thought I ask the question, including the grade. For me:

 

TOS #39, 5.0

FF# 4, 6.0

FF# 12, 7.5

Avengers #4, 6.5

SS#4 , 8.0

 

No super grades to get excited about but I love them just the same.

 

Add my Marvel Comics #4 to my growing list. tongue.gif
