While I agree a pin up isn't continuity, what would your opinion be on a "file" with an image containing "info" on a character, presented in a way that suggests another character (as well as you) is viewing it?

My opinion of bio pages, regardless of how they're presented, is generally very low. That said, they can occasionally contain something interesting, at least in the context of their time of creation/presentation. MR SigS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your prior comment made me think of a discussion [here, I think] whether the Deadpool "file" at the end of X-Force #1 should be the 2nd (minor) appearance, but with that said I don't want to steer away from the Bronze any further than I already have.

Wishful thinking or do you have some info here? Lol I hope you're right although I'm not sure that I would part with my copy unless the price went absolutely berserk. littledoom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iqc23 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 No news. It’s an undervalued marvel book. It’s just seem like every key marvel book is on the move. So it’s only a matter of time. I only have one copy too that I picked up few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Tales 1 IS a great book even with the Man Thing origin story. It's a shame that that is what drives this book's value. divad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm voting no but just because Man Thing has really no chance of creating a stir in movies or in modern comics (reboot). I'd say a book like Adventures Into Fear 19 or Vampirella 1 would be a safer bets since Howard the Duck could see a reboot or a show and Vampirella is always in the mix for a tv show or movie.

You know, in an age where marginal characters like Groot and Rocket Raccoon and WTF? characters like Squirrel Girl can become hot commodities, anything is possible. To declare otherwise is ignoring what has happened in the recent past. Does that mean that Man Thing will become hot? (a hot Man Thing??? ) I have no idea but I surely can't rule it out, given the wackiness we've seen. Remember, books like She-hulk 1 and Ms Marvel 1 and Black Panther 1 and Eternals 1 and Nova 1 were considered garbage books for years. Now look where they are.

The 2005 Man-Thing movie was a creative masterpiece akin to David Hasselhoff's 1998 Nick Fury. But honestly, I would love to see a Man-Thing movie if they could channel some Gerber/Ploog magic.

Now look where they are. Quite a few years back, the contributors to the Overstreet guide commented regularly on how "plentiful" 1970s comics were, AND strongly implied they would never attain any significant value. People didn't go to the trouble of carefully preserving the books -- after all, the experts more-or-less called them worthless. So copies that have survived in very high grade are finally getting their due. I always treasured the copies I hand-selected off the newsstand. My local LCS owner wouldn't even consider buying post-1969 back issue comics from customers as late as 2015 -- a stupid policy.

For years most shops/dealers/collectors thought bronze was trash. I clearly remember being laughed at while cleaning out stores of their high grade bronze for pennies.

If so do you want to sell them for a few extra pennies profit? 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
