Silver Age First Appearance!

The Collector and Guardians! Nuff Said

 

With new marvel movies on the horizon and the introduction of some great character for the first time to the mass/general public and movie going audiences. I give you the first appearance of The Collector as presented in Avengers #28, and The Guardians of the Galaxy as presented in Marvel Superheroes #18.

 

These 2 books are on there way to Sarasota as soon as I complete this journal, and I hope the grading gods bid them safe passage

 

I have been picking up high grade copies (as high as could find) of the Guardians first appearance for the last 20 + years knowing that someday their importance to the Marvel Universe would be recognized. The Avengers issue is a copy that I redirected from the Book Rack deal (see previous post/journal) of which I had several copies but alas now have only the copy you see remaining.

 

So the next time you seed these, they along with a few others will have sparkling new cases and be assigned to b one of my registry sets.

 

Happy Hunting and Good Luck

Love that Guardians book! Almost picked one up at the CalComicCon yesterday, but alas, I went with something else.... (Incredible Science Fiction 33)

 

Be sure to share them when they get graded!

Nice GOTG!!! Those are getting real expensive!

I have been wanting the Guardians book for some time. They both look like great CGC candidates

Is the Gaurdians book a squar bound? Nice Avengers too, good luck with the grades!

Gotta agree with everyone... very sharp looking books!

 

Good luck... I hope they fetch high grades!

Thanks everyone! And yes Brandon the MSH 18 is a square bound copy which makes it even more difficult to get a good copy, not to mention the dark cover that shows stressed lines very easily.

The photos are a little fuzzy, but from what I can tell that Avengers books looks really clean. Now I need to run home and check what condition my copy is in...I'm thinking it's probably 4.5, but oh well, great story nonetheless! Best of luck on your grades!
