A few months ago on eBay I spotted a large auction lot which had twenty or so hidden 35c variants showing in the listing photos, plus a few books which potentially were 35s but their price boxes were not visible.  I ended up winning the auction, and upon receiving my books I found there were 54 35 centers in the lot (see pics) - way more than I expected.  With those books I filled eight gaps in my 35c collection, plus made a few upgrades.  I submitted the Iron Fist 14 to CGC, and it just came back as an 8.5 OW.  Obviously, the IF 14 was by far the best book of the bunch, but I was also pretty stoked to get the MTA 36 and 37, as they were the only super-hero reprints I needed.

What is the consensus on these? I'm buying them at prices that are lower than when I started hoarding them ten years ago. It seems like a couple of these have skyrocketed but the rest aren't following suit. Some issues have more demand than supply.

My 2022 acquisitions to date. The Kull #16 presents nicely!  The X-Men #98 isn’t as nearly nice as my #99 but I’ll take it.

Here's a hard book to find! Fortunately,  I found it on ebay a couple of years ago, won the auction for more than I expected and had it graded. One of my grails that I'd spent 20 years trying to find. Happy to have it, but I still need its companion...141. I know the rules of variant club, but if you know where one is...lol.

Great price too!

Found it at the LCS for $50, I traded for it, about $62 cost to me, for these two!  :banana:

Only vg but I'll take it, as it was more my collecting focus, than the $62 of books I traded. I traded under copies of x-men 99 and 95 only fair condition and some invincible under copies like #68 1st dinosaurus and #75, which I already submitted one and came back 9.6. I think a vf punisher limited #2 was in there as well. So dealer got something that'll sell for him I think.
