Jayman Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I can't help it, I'm a geek about stuff like this. That Gaines Cert is one of the coolest certificates there is, a bit of comics history in your hands! Oh, and the book is just crazy nice. Congrats!

vaultkeeper Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I have an extra certificate for a Weird Science 10 Gaines copy #5 if anyone is missing one. Will this work on any Weird Science #10, or just Gaines copies? [shrug] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straw-Man Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Yes I am missing one. Unfortunately I am also missing the book. a couple more such examples of "dry british wit" and i'll develop a conflict for a certain weekend in may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaultkeeper Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 These just came back from CGC. Not super-high grades...But the Mysterious Adventures #12 is a census topper. [cloud9] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Always loved the cover to MA 12, congrats! Wonder why CGC didn't note "Devil cover" on the label of the MA 17? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryw7 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Wow, congrats on that MA 17. For me, this has been the toughest issue to locate in any kind of decent shape. I used to have one that was barely a fair, and the one I have now is GVG at best. I think that the extremely grisly contents prompted a lot of angry parents to chuck this particular issue in the bonfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaultkeeper Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 No "Devil cover" on cgc notes, but I still call it a devil cover. I bought this copy years ago and I havn't seen too many since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
originalisbest Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 MA #12 and #17 are two of my fave issues in my collection. Nice copies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
originalisbest Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 It is a tough one to find! For me, MA #19 hasn't turned up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
