Comic book collecting with a foreign variant focus 20 20

[user_elisa]

This is the portuguese variant of ASM #2 published in 1983 in Portugal.

It's exactly like ASM #2 published in May '63, with 32 pages and 2 storys.

 

The portuguese print run was 25.000

 

i would like to correct this information, the second story is "The Terrible Threat Of The Living Brain!" from ASM #8 January 1964

Don’t you have a national collecting market in Portugal, Elisa?

If so, you should have an idea on how much it’s worth.

Hi vaillant

Actually, no.

There is no market in Portugal. At least that i'm aware, no.

I know that this is a rare book and it's difficult to understand in Portugal how much is worth.

Do you have an italian variant like this one?

Yes, but I do not use the term "variant", as I have already explained several times, as these are – foremostly – foreign editions of a US originated comic series.

They can be seen as "variants" but it is a misleading term.

 

I will scan and post the italian #2 if you like, but I have to dig it out. It came out around 1970. This is a scan of the #6 which I have at hand:

Hi vaillant

Actually, no.

 

So that’s why Peter spends stupid money on original US editions?

 

[vaillant]

A pair of other italian #1s: Ghost Rider and Conan (the Conan will very likely be on its way to Tim soon):

Is that the Marvel Spotlight that Matt got from you?

Is that the Marvel Spotlight that Matt got from you?

 

No, I have to check but I think it’s another duplicate. If I already have it (I am keeping these italian Devils for now) this one will be for sale.

[marmat]

A few new books. I really like the Star Trek

Here's a link to my Photobucket pics with scans of my collection of foreign editions. I'll warn you in advance though, there's a little over 800 of them in there.

Yes, definitely do not look at Tim’s collection if you are faint at heart…

 

This one is one of the few I will keep. Very likely a NM (very hard to find here) and I love this issue (I have the original as well)…

 

[Mijael.Levy]

Just got this , published December 1964 by la Prensa , no missing pages but no staples that means , cover and pages detached ...

 

 

 

[vaillant]

Very nice. Is that more affordable than the original #110 at current prices?

[lscomics]

Yes, definitely do not look at Tim’s collection if you are faint at heart…

Coming from you that's most definitely a compliment with weight behind it. (thumbs u

I think I've seen one of those lying around somewhere.

[Mijael.Levy]

Yours has staples??

[Silver Surfer]

Great stuff guys, keep them coming.
