When I started it I figured it would take MUCH longer. Here is one of the Shasta codes. Bonus points if you can figure out the issue Strange Tales 96 or AAF 12 Edited July 22, 2021 by RICK STARR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Shasta's date 3 months prior to the issue month. The JIM 67 is an April issue. The 2-9 date, which I assume is Feb. 9, threw me off.

Sweet Lou 14 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) It's actually a pretty sophisticated use of color on Strange Worlds #3, to highlight the difference between seeing the monster through the glass or not. Can't think of any other examples, especially from that time period, unless maybe this one.

bc Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Just saw this: Best Silver Age Sets Sweet Lou 14 - X-Men (1963) #1-#143There has been a multitude of upgrades since this set last won "BEST IN SET TYPE" IN 2018. This is an extremely controlled, consistent condition set. It starts with a very nice 9.0 1st issue. Issues #2-93 are ALL 9.4. Issues #94-120 are ALL 9.6. Issues #121-143 are ALL 9.8. AMAZING! Nearly all are photographed for our viewing pleasure. Great job assembling this wonderful set! And thank you for sharing it with us!! Big Congrats to @Sweet Lou 14 and all the other award winners! -bc Frisco Larson, KirbyJack, RICK STARR and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Congrats to @Sweet Lou 14 and all the other award winners! -bc Wow, that sure caught me by surprise! I'm super proud of my collection across the board, but I never end up with the #1 set in any particular set type. I believe there were two temporary exceptions -- my X-Men set took the top spot in 2018 before someone else came along with a "better" (but far from complete!) set, and my Thor set held the top spot in 2020 because there was a brief moment where I was the only guy who figured out you could add JIM #83-125 to that set. It's a little funny that they chose to give me this award for my X-Men #1-143 set, since they could say the same thing about my X-Men #1-201 set which extends the 9.8 run to #201 and Annual #9. But anyway it's really exciting to be recognized. Thanks for being my hype man! KirbyJack, mysterio, bc and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
