Since these are going for $50+ in some cases I thought Id get the big keys! Also got a copy of TFTC book on ebay a few weeks back for considerably cheaper than recent sales. Nice grab on the reprints. Yes, the “keys” are bringing some good money now days. I have seen a couple in the $100 range! I used to pass them up at shows and flea markets for a couple bucks apiece. Now I am scooping up multiples on the better issues… Larryw7 and Raze 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, congratulations on the score. Two Fisted Tales annual 1 is one of my favorite EC covers. What’s in it? Raze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few thoughts on these: 1. Very cool that they removed the censorship on Vault 32! They even added blood to Vault 30! 2. It bugs me a little that the numbering is off. 3. I was very surprised to learn that these were fetching a premium. I have been looking casually, but no luck on bargains!

Popular Post C. Spaulding Posted April 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2022 Here are a couple of ECs I got back from CGC this week. I don’t have many TFTs but I really like the cover of the first one. OtherEric, damonwad, KirbyJack and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian editions too! Great haul! Interesting footnote too -- The cover of the US edition of Weird Science #18 is plagued with varying degrees of weak reds, which tend to make the subheads/blurbs and the explosion look washed out. This one has some of the boldest reds I've ever seen on this cover. grendelbo, Raze, KirbyJack and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve picked up a few over the years. Last couple of copies I grabbed on eBay and Bedrock sold the second copy here for a mere $15.00 in 2015. The first copy was just a bit more but much nicer.

N e r V Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) Anyone know what the current market is for Mad #5 in around 4.0 or 5.0 condition (VG or VG/FN)? I’ve seen 4.0’s in the $300.00-$450.00 range on the higher end but there’s a CGC 5.0 on eBay now at $825.00??? That big a price difference for a one point gain?

Sounds a bit optimistic, but it really is scarce compared to the rest of the run, so I could see it jumping oddly with the general increased interest in EC’s these days. The semi-horror cover could also be getting extra attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Over in my 50 year Junk Obsession a while back I mentioned my buddy Johnny would be selling old unused warehouse stock Weird Science #16 shirts. Go back a few pages in my thread to see the shirts I got from him. Here is the link to his ebay page. You might want to email him and ask about other EC/MAD related shirts as well. Highly recommended and an old buddy! https://www.ebay.com/str/kookieenterprises?_trkparms=folent%3Akookieenterprises|folenttp%3A1&_trksid=p3542580.m47492.l74602 KirbyJack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
