MarkWoodcock Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Picked this up today. It's actually one of those rare times when it's prettier in person than the scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mummy issues are always cool. Glad to see you back on the boards. Did you ever start to rebuild the FF collection or is that a closed chapter ? GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkWoodcock Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Did you ever start to rebuild the FF collection or is that a closed chapter ? It's closed for now but you never know what I might start doing again - FF was always my fave as a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Mine too.....I've only got a handful of my very favorites....but they're real nice. And they have a monster in every issue That's the way my collection is now ....favorite examples of a wide range of genres....can't afford runs anymore. I remember almost buying a high grade TTA 39 from you years ago in the CBG, but it was during my drinking days and I drank the money up. Man I wasted a lot of oppurtunities back then.

DR.X Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) This is one of my favorite covers. I'm surprised it didn't do better in the cover contest. I have a really nice copy of this one too. I'm dropping it off for on-site sub at Wizard Chicago with some other stuff. I'm hoping it comes back 7.5 or better. O.K. I edited my post and threw a scan of it in. I know most of you guys arlready seen this book, but I figured I might as well throw it up one more time before slabbing it.

DR.X Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 I've had that book for thirty years at least. I can remember exactly where I bought it and the price. Just wouldn't be right to let it go. It's like one of the family. DRX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsimanga Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I love that cover. Did you guy see the Straneg Tales #95 CGC 9.4 that was on Comiclink? Looks like its been taken off already. I did see that.. along with a 9.0 early pre hero issue, presumably from the same seller. They werent up that long and then got taken off. I wasn't going to buy them as the asking price was sky high, but they were great books and I was curious to se what thye would go for... anyone know what happened to those books?

Silver Surfer Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Not sure what happened but the ST#95 was killer. Prices were high but that is one of the covers I would be willing to splash some coin on if I was hot after super high grade copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
