gyro-1 Posted September 12, 2012 Author Share Posted September 12, 2012 You did read the part where I wrote this didn't you? "So I'll agree that she is in issue #33, albeit briefly. Which is probably why she's left off of some list of appearances in Conan for #33" You have to agree she's not part of the story line like she is in issues 24, 43, and 44 etc. Banana dancing not withstanding. There are more pictures of Captain America and Red Skull in Marvel Feature Vol. 2 #5 than there are of Red Sonja in Conan #33. Of course it's in a Twinkie ad or something like that, but would call that a Captain America appearance? For the record, I never said she wasn't in #33. I said I didn't know if she was or not because some lists have it and some don't. OVER! Sorry cant read what you wrote need new glasses ! And a dicionary And red sonja 7/8 Have pitty on a blind old man ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizardseye311 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Thank Mytra that Mr. Suydam decided it would look much better with a half naked Red Sonja instead of another tiger. Did you see the 9.8 #1 Savage Tales Feat. Red Sonja Virgin cover on eBay? Started at $49.00, and had one bid last time I looked. Love these covers. He also did some great Vampirella virgin covers right around the same time as these. I think these painted covers are some of his best work.

Although I've received brand new books that were just horrible. Looked like they were used to play Hockey with. I always ask plenty of questions. Almost to the point of being annoying, but I'd rather get it out of the way than to buy something I'm not going to want, and have to return. Unless I'm looking for a reader copy, I stay away from VF (8.0), and look for NM/M listings. At least if it's over graded it should still be a pretty nice copy. Of course there are some dirtbags out there that will say anything to move their garbage. You have to consider the price. Is it too good to be true? Or is it too high for what's in the pic? Occasionally you get lucky. Like my pence Marvel Team-Up #79, but it's rare. I've talked to a few British sellers, and after describing to them what a 9.8 is they'll agree that what they have is nowhere near that quality. It's a tough grade, but I tell them to keep an eye out because that's what I'm interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gyro-1 Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) I just found this photo in google images and it seemed very familiar to me for some reason. Then it hit me. Isnt there a projector machine you shine on a picture and it transfers the image to another piece of paper for tracing ? Think I saw it in a james bond movie?

gyro-1 Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Easy easy guys It was my idea to add the price varients I asked months ago for the adition and was ignored When the change for the 9 poped up I asked again I was very surprised that it was added And very happy about it and still am There is no way in heck that CGC would lissen to me to add a new set then now or in the future ! If some one has the pull to get CGC to make one I am all for it ! I did not do this to screw anyone over just to add books to my colection But I guessed that some colectors would be less than happy So its simple some one can ask CGC to add a new set or remove the price varients from this one Me I like this but am sad others dont and would like to add more varients So fellows have fun colecting There is a bright side to this in that we know now there are a few Red Sonja colectors that care And Logan510 is hogging the Edited September 17, 2012 by gyro-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardseye311 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 It's like this. The census lists the price variants for #'s 4 and 5, and both issue dates for #9. If a certain person does or doesn't collect these for whatever reason has no baring on the issue. The registry, if there is any logic to it, should reflect the census. There are no registry sets for say, only the yellow covers, or only odd number issues. That would be ludicrous. Just like saying only my set should be the one that counts. The census should be the only thing that matters, and opinion should not cloud the issue. To date there are 6 graded copies of the #4 35 cent cover, and 3 for the #5. There are 13 graded copies for the 5/78 #9, and 6 for the 11/78 #9. These are all grades combined. As any collector worth their weight in poly bags can see, these are quite rare in highest graded examples. It stands to reason that as collectors we should strive to bring forth these rarities, and display them with pride. Having someone's opinion of what the complete set comprises of conflict with the census is simply short sighted. The facts could not be any clearer.
