In that event here are some in those ranges that are probably worth holding: rsouxlja7, paul747 and Comic-Fan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the first issue and immediately ordered a subscription. I remember being bummed out when issue #25 arrived and it said "He's gone! The Human Rocket". Still have all 25 issues! I loved Nova when it came out in the summer of 1976. Of course, living next to Riders home town of Hempstead, it was ridiculous how little of Long Island made it into the book. Was really impressed with issues 2 and 4, but I remember dropping the book not long afterward. Read the rest of the issues when I got a collection a few years later and wasn't impressed.

mrwoogieman Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Special Marvel Edition 15 - interesting how after the movie announcement at the beginning of December and that initial flurry of buying it seems that there are no 9.8 copies available on eBay since then, and just one 9.6 (mis-listed as issue 5) priced at $1,000. Where are all the nose bleed or pie-in-the-sky prices to tempt people for this common to the point of people claiming it's a warehouse find book?

That was the next Spider-Man #1 I thought. Loved the cover and was about 15 years old. I kept buying but I honestly could not get into Infantino's art when he started. His latter art like on the Flash (not the SA) was hard to stomach for me. I loved his MIS and SA Flash and much of his other SA art though. I still have my OO Novas - heck for that matter, I have pretty much every book I ever bought from BA through CA then I stopped buying new book in the late 80s and haven't bought a new book since.

rsouxlja7 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 I'll try to remember to post one this weekend.

They really do rise and fall a lot especially X-Men bronze, but right now you cant go wrong with X-Men 101 for the next few months that book is on fire.

Apparently a couple of people at Marvel have said that they are planning on including Nova in future movies. Or something like that. But, nothing is set in stone.

I am getting and offer on eBay for a 7.5-8.0 type copy about $10-13 under FMV based on "this is how many ebay bucks I have" pondering it. Used to have like 8 copies, sold them off the last time the book popped. Can micronauts please pop again??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, not a SME 15 but I do see a 9.4 graded copy of Special Marvel Edition 16 listed on CC's next Event Auction scheduled for March. Not the same thing I would imagine, especially since it has been graded by the other grading company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing wrong with the book for speculation. I don't see high grade copies much, but that being said money will bring them out. For me personally I would be looking at villain appearances just because its more cost effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I also thought the writers could have done a better job developing the Shang-Chi character, I really did like the Paul Gulacy artwork on the book and definitely the primary reason I brought the book back then. Reminded me of a poor man's version of Steranko's artwork. mrwoogieman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought 1-19 from the rack and then stopped buying comics all together. Of course-- I was buying everything available off the rack that was Marvel superhero. My favorite is actually #4 with Thor on the cover. here's my OO rack purchased copy-- not perfect but clearly it was read and enjoyed wormboy, Sandflea, speedcake and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
