Especially 1978-1979 Demon In A Bottle issues.

Its basically Dark Phoenix for the Iron Man title in terms of acclaim and quality. However Alcoholism is real and widespread so far more relavent.

My uncle has struggled with Dark Phoenix Syndrome for over two decades now.

Every Thanksgiving by the end of the meal he’s all, “I AM FIRE MADE FLESH!!” and, “I AM THE DARK JOY OF DESTRUCTION!!”

Also, his politics aren’t great.

It's the first appearance of COTTON MATHER in comic books!!!!

Speculators go crazy for this book, I heard. Like, we're supposed to be seeing him for thirty-nine seconds as a background character in Wandavision 2, or whatever the sequel is called.

Oh! That's why, pretty cheap if that's the case. 

If I'm honest I'm happy there is interest, and yet, promising? Unknown.

Another reason may be because there are only (4) 9.8's on the census. That won't last long after this sale.

Do you feel it was a registry collector with somewhat deep pockets?

Agreed have seen same scenario repeat itself many times with various comics over the years.

I think it might be a registry collector. More copies will surface now. It wasn't just one person.  Reminds me of Marvel Team-Up 131 with a black cover (first White Rabbit) when the census had only a couple in 9.8 and now 62!!!!

There won’t be 62 copies of this book in 9.8.

Might approach 10-12, and even that will be a stretch.
