Pre- Hero Marvels!!!!

Here are my latest pickups. The TOS was a Christmas present from my brother, and the two TTAs were self-submissions (with a press from Joeypost). I'm really happy with the #12, but was bummed with the PLOD on the #24 (that book actually got through the pre-screen as Universal, and only post-grading did it switch to purple). I may look at having the resto removed on the #24 since it is pro work.

Nice group of books!! Hopefully that CT can be removed, TTA #24 is such a tough book.

Here is my first (and probably only) win from the January Clink auction. I also went after the #4 but didn't bid as high as I probably should have because I really wanted the #5 and couldn't really afford them both. Did any boardies win the #4?

Even though it's in a new slab, the serial number indicates the AA 5 is a very early submission. I wouldn't be surprised to see it get an 8.0 White if you resubmitted it. GOD BLESS...

I love the pre-hero Marvels you fellows have been posting in this thread. It's a pity Marvel had to drop the publication of these stories in order to concentrate on superheroes because of the restrictive distribution deal Marvel had with DC at the time.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I always heard that that deal was why Hulk had to get cancelled after #6 so that Marvel could launch Amazing Spider-man. They had only so many titles they could do, and they wanted to get a title for Spidey so bad they had to drop Incredible Hulk. Is that how that happened, or have I been clinging to bad information for 25 years (which wouldn't be the first time, of course...)?
