...ah, to live the dream of finding an ASM 678 variant at a show, for next to nothing...will probably never happen but ya never know. :cloud9:

 

 

Wasn't at a show but the one I got in Sept 2012 that got a 9.8 was at an LCS for $30, Never say "never." Unless it's about the price of this book dropping. Then it's definitely never lol

 

Easier said and done eight months after a book comes out than 4 and a half years. lol

This seller calls this copy a "9.4" based on a small colour break near the bottom left hand corner...

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amazing-Spider-Man-678-NM-Joe-Quinones-Venom-Variant-Near-Mint-9-4-NO-RESERVE-/291729567599?hash=item43ec6fef6f:g:cmsAAOSwpIdW7fuw

 

But I've seen CGC graded 9.8 copies of this book with more noticeable spine ticks than that, and even with multiple spine ticks. hm

I have always liked the cover, but the one thing that has always bothered me is the way they drew he right below the belly. Looks like she has fat folds / fupa / pouch. Needless t say, I would still buy one if the price was right.

This is the third time the seller has listed that copy. Others were BINs.

 

Good close-ups of the front and back, but only a far camera pick of the front cover and it's still in a shiny sleeve. Would probably do the seller better (or worse if he's hiding defects) to also include a front and back cover scan.

There are very large front and back cover scans in the item description...

Technically they are pictures and not scans.

 

I agree that they are adequate nonetheless, however.

I think when a book is placed in a scanner and an image is generated that it is indeed a scan...

I've never been able to figure out why you bother to post as often as you do in this thread.

 

Baffling.

 

-J.

I'm here to learn four syllable adjectives and read mostly, I read modern threads much more than I reply in them. Though I will point out that I don't like posting with people who edit their content to make my posts appear out of context. ie - ruining the joke

 

Also, even though it is none of your business - I'm a Spider-man collector and reader for many years.

 

How 'bout you? Why do you post as often as you do in this thread?

Just kidding, like we both don't already know. ;)

 

So since we're playing Q & A about Spider-man 678 - what recently took place that was pivotal to the story in this issue?

Yeah I did that. Felt a little douchey in the moment. :devil:

 

Yes I post in the thread because I love the cover. Adore it. It was the first modern variant I ever decided to purchase already slabbed for significantly over cover.

 

Is your question pertaining to Peter's premontion of the future in 678?

No. It related to the twist that helped Spidey save the world after him and Grady mess around with some time travel tech.

I vaguely remember the plot of 678 (though I do remember liking it and wishing the storyline had been longer than a two-parter).

 

I haven't read past issue 3 of the new series yet.

 

Sounds like I need to get caught up though. :)

That's what I get for not scrolling down.
