Silver Age Key for $500

[Disco Stu]

What silver age key would you recommend to get for $500?

 

I'm fine with GD grades as long as it has some decent eye appeal and is complete.

DC or Marvel?

I would save it until you have another 500,then ask us again when you have that.

You should be able to get a nicish looking Strange Tales 110 for that much.

 

Problem is, Dr. Strange is not on the cover, so it is different than 99% of the big key/1st apps out there (other than Iron Man 55 I suppose)

[Primetime]

Avengers 1 or 4

sgt fury #1-GPA for a certified 4.0 is between $450-$500

Prolly would help to have a little more criteria. For investment? DC? Marvel? I'm not privy to your likes or dislikes, so speaking from just a straight investment potential, I think the Silver DC keys might have a little more room for growth and have a shorter supply. For every 100 ASM 14 I see, I see probably ONE Action 242, so I'd rather have the Action 242, but that's me and MY taste and my opinion.

I agree - the answer depends on

 

1) what are you buying it for

2) what characters do you like/dislike

You guys are funny.

 

The comic is for my collection and possibly an investment in 40 years if my two boys don't like/appreciate my comics.

 

I'm mostly a Marvel man, with a focus on X-Men and Captain America, but am open to DC.

 

Right now I'm leaning towards an Avengers 4. I wasn't sure if an Avengers 1 was possible at that price.

 

The biggest reason for posting this thread is because I want to branch out in my collecting and start with a key; not just any ol' issue.

 

Plus, the other $500 is going towards my X-Men and Cap collections.

 

P.S. If there weren't enough mini-paragraphs here, post quickly the Wondercon is only 7 weeks away.

Avengers 4 really isn't much of a key,now Avengers 1 is a good one! (thumbs u

Can't agree bug slapper Avengers 4 is a cool key and one of the few he can afford for $500. He also likes and collects Cap so makes sense.

[tjanse]

Silver surfer #1 but thats my two scents can buy a decent one for that price

Bug slapper! Just pulling his chain on the AV 4.

BB 28 may have some upside.....since the OP mentioned investment. If he gets the Av 4....he may be more likely to hold long term. Getting stan's sig on the splash might be a nice touch. GOD BLESS...

Oooooh, I like it! Can that be your new custom title?!?

 

Oh, and I vote AV4 too.

[chrisco37]

Spidey is the most liquid title. Has been for some time now, and I don't see that changing.

 

ASM #13, 14, 15 are always good books to have. #31 is the most "under-appreciated" of the key Spidey books. Can't go wrong with 39 or 40.

Another interesting book is Fantastic Four 4. First Subby. If they ever include him in a movie it will jump in value.
