Custom Set: "The Kingdom of the Spawn #9 Newsstand Editions"

[SW3D]

I love the custom set feature recently instituted by the CGC. This registry feature allows us to create unique thematic sets that normally wouldn't make the grade as a competitive set. But who knows, maybe one day the CGC will host a competition for best custom sets.

 

And if I were to enter such a competition, I would enter my unique and prized set: "The Kingdom of the Spawn #9 Newsstand Editions.

 

Yes!... I'm back and at it again! Not only have I created such a custom set, but I have also recently acquired another example of the ultra rare Spawn #9 Newsstand Edition featuring the first appearance of Angela, otherwise known as Aldrif Odinsdottir, Thor's sister and daughter of Odin... the rightful heir of Asgard!

 

Feast your eyes... 7 copies! That's right! I own 7 copies! I know... I know... you must be thinking... 7 copies? Why collect the same comic over and over again? For those of you who are not aware, these newsstand editions are variants of the direct editions and are considered very rare. How rare? There are currently a total of 977 graded direct editions versus only 17 graded newsstand editions. That is 0.0174002047082907%... or less than 2%... making it a very rare comic.

 

Of the 17 graded examples (I'm sure there are raw ones out there), only four (4) have reached the highest grade at 9.8 and eight (8) at 9.6's... for a total of twelve (12) in the top two grades. I own seven (7) of these. Take a look at my beauties if you would like and tell me what you think: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/wcm/ComicCustomSetGallery.aspx?s=17317

 

Thanks for reading, and as always... Happy Collecting!

Can't go wrong with Angela! I made a couple custom sets myself. First, 2 Birthday Book sets, one for my wife and one for me. (Books for the month & year we were born) - I also made a Top 10, should help me keep my "eye on the prize."
