Do the mylars fit in standard comic boxes??? The few that I have seem too tall and wide for my comic boxes....this is probably wht I didn't buy some before.

[Red Hook]

Yes.

Preacher prototype?

 

 

this cover just slays me. our SUPERHERO is about to fall into the water and DROWN?!?! no wonder Antman didn't make it.

 

and that one with the PROTECTOR - now he looks like a real kick- villain.

It depends on the size of the mylar and the size of the box. For the Silver/Golden Age mylars, I use magazine boxes because they don't fit into regular comic boxes that I buy at my LCS. But the modern age mylars fit fine in a regular box.

Yeah its PT Barnum's evil half brother and former ice cream truck salesman gone mad. Nice covers but man were those stories lame. I didn't know Antman couldn't swim.

The only caveat I would add is that I have seen magazine boxes (and own one myself) that while plently wide enough for Silver/Golden Age Mylar sleeves, they are not quite tall enough and scrunch down on the lip/opening of the sleeve when you put the lid on all way. Consequently, you really can't or shouldn't stack these boxes without the posibility of damaging the sleeve. I am specifically referring to E. Gerber brand Silver/Golden Archives in this instance. I don't know what brand the boxes are, though.

 

I'd post a TTA, but I don't own any.

 

However, I did get a another 8 TOS issues over the weekend. Maybe I'll scan and post a few of those tonight.

That's what I thought as the few mylars I have house Silver Age comics. Do you just pur the comic straight in or do you put them in a regular bag and then slide them in? This wouldn't make sense, but I though I would ask anyway

I just put each book into a 4 mil mylar with a full back. Some people use the Mylite2s and a halfback, close the flap on the Mylite2 (which is basically a regular comic back made of mylar), and slide the whole shebang into a 4 mil mylar. I don't do this, but some people swear by it.

[kryptonitecomics]

Got it!!!! I think I'll go with some of those lock tites and full backs. Start off with like 100 and then see how many more I need. I'll leave the moderns in the normal bags etc.

 

 

Thanks for the info FFB and anyone else that responded

[Mister_Comics]

Let me show you all some of my favorite early monster TTA. Someone host my scans. I need an email address to send the scan TTA covers.

Thanks in advance.

Here is a couple

[burntboy]

cool covers and great shape on those books

 

is that first one the number ONE issue??

[Samruby]

Burntboy,

 

Thanks...They are very close to that condition, but I touched up some parts of them for display purposes...The first one is a #1, that didnt have the number printed on it for some reason...Maybe because it was "too low" a number for potential buyers back then?

[Aces]

The whites and colors on that issue 1 are Astonishing!

Jeffrey, that TTA 29 is one of the best of the Monster Covers! I only saw it for the first time last year. It puts the capital "I" in Invasion!
