I'm the first to admit that like Captain America, I'm a man out of time on this one. Had to check GPA when I saw that sale, and realized that it was a nick below the average over the last three months. Is this book copper? Cover date is March, 1983. Same date as UXM #167 and FF #252.

As the ASM 238 heats up, there is a rash of FF #252 being listed with either missing Tattooz or no mention if they are in the book. I am sure a good number of the ASM #238 raws are 'franken-books'.

Yeah ASM 138 is copper. If it says March 83 then it was probably sitting on newsstands around Jan '83. I think bronze ends in Dec 82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think bronze ends in Dec 82 That is debatable. There is no real official end of the bronze age that is accepted as absolute. Many people in the hobby believe different things when it comes to the start and end of the comic ages. ThothAmon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shang Chi I had at least 12 nice copies of that I could not give away 6 or 7 years ago. I put them in ebay grab bags and effectively got about $25 each (25-33% of guide at the time) for them. Ditto Moon Knight 1, Rom 1, Ms. Marvel 1, and Nova 1, basically gave them away at 25-33% of guide.

FineCollector Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 MOKF is going to be everywhere, although I doubt many will care about anything but the first appearance. How deep are those boxes buried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyThreeSons Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 There were 2 copies of Marvel Special Edition CGC 9.8 consigned to the current comiclink auction. The first ended last night and hammered at 1600. The other ends tonight in about 3 1/2 hours and is up to 2100. I bet the first consigner is bummed the news didn’t come out one day earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shang Chi I just started collecting again after about 30 years off. I was looking at this book for other reasons people have not mentioned. I was looking for something to collect from the BA in 9.8's with low runs just for something fun to collect that wasn't too expensive (I'm also collecting Marvel 1977 Godzilla's for example). Maybe this is the case, everything else is too expense so these other more obscure issues are heating up HAHA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 9.6 almost tripled what the one from 11/29 went for...450 vs 1147. And last night's 9.4 was about the same as the 11/29 9.6! Movies make it happen. At least for a while.
