I searched far and wide for a HG keeper copy with deep colors and A+ gloss. I eventually found this copy.

I love this book! TTA 44 is my favorite story from the Tales to Astonish series.

 

[AGGIEZ]

Here's my ticket to the club….

 

 

[Boboset]

Sweet copies everyone! I'll make a who has what breakdown on the first post once we have more join the club.

[Bomber-Bob]

Nice copy Boboset, really looks clean.

Here's my copy. I picked this up in an OO collection some 20 years ago. The book was never pressed.

 

[jreezy]

Looks like I'm the only one with a beater copy. Always loved this cover.

 

Been delaying my upgrade for awhile now. Anyone see this book going crazy between now and the release of ant man?

 

 

[jreezy]

Nice copies btw guys

This seems to be the grade to have.....

 

 

 

 

 

And it's already gaining in price, has been for a good 12 months - Evangelline Lilly being confirmed as 'The Wasp' would really kick it on though.

Movie hype or not, TTA #44 is a terrific book. It just doesn't turn up as often as one would think.

I know - that's why I bought mine a couple of years ago...

[Skhambati]

Count me in. How do I attach a scan of my book?

[Skhambati]

Agree. Way undervalued relative to other tta books. If hope van dyne becomes the new wasp then watch out. This thing will become hot and skyrocket in price!!!

[MagnetoWasRight]

I love this book...walked into my LCS a few years ago and this copy was there for sale for $30.00. I snagged it having seen very few copies for sale. She's a solid mid-grade copy.

 

 

[gadzukes]

Wow, $30! That's amazing.

 

Looks better than the grade.

[gadzukes]

Here's mine.

 

I bought it less than 2 years ago for $800. I think it has nearly doubled since then.

 

[gadzukes]

Here's my undercopy. A little rough, but I still love it.

 

 

 

[Sandflea]

May I join?

 

[Jaydogrules]

Awesome books guys. I'll have to take a scan of my little lovely love and post here once OP catalogs them on the first page. Nice to see this book (and the much put upon wasp) finally getting a little TLC on the boards. Founding (and first female) member of the avengers. What more needs to be said ? (thumbs u

It would be a shock if marvel doesn't have the First Lady in future movies.
