Raw Planet 12 just added to eBay. Be careful! I’m quite sure the staples have been replaced although it is not disclosed in the listing. 

Good to know.  I was checking it out when it hit ebay. 

By the way, do you have some ebay alert type thingy that is spying on Planet Comics or something? You sneaky devil...

Sorry about that, I made you pay a little more. You have yourself a very sweet book there

Very nice copy. Last book before the reprints started (albeit with great covers), then a brief sputtering gasp of new material, and finally with #73, no more.

I didn’t mean that to sound so gloomy!

This is my very first Planet Comics purchase.  I grabbed it yesterday on the bay.  In fact, it's my first Golden Age purchase ever.  It's low grade and I have no idea if I overpaid for it! But I don't care, I wanted it.

I have been collecting Spider-Man for 6 years, mostly SA Ditko books.  I have some other SA and BA stuff, but I have recently become infatuated by the Planet Comics run and decided to sell everything else except for my SA Spidey books to start collecting Planet.  Say goodbye to my money...

 

Wow! Has it only been one year since my Planet addiction began?  What a riveting year it has been.

I’m very happy to check all the rivets off the list. Apart from the two of you, I’m not sure how many others there are.  Maybe jhutton still has his? I know of 4 or 5 other boardies that are super close to all the rivets.

Now I must be patient in assembling the rest of the run.

I still have them

Happy to have this copy of 20 in hand. Love Zolne rivets.  I’m hoping it will grade higher than my 3.5.  Might be close.

nice colors and a great cover

Thanks to Rick for helping me upgrade my 19! Can’t wait to see this book in hand. I’ve always loved the ray gun from 19, probably my favorite weird space weapon in the run.  There are lots of cool guns in the Planet run though. What are some of your favorites?

Anyone know who owns the Cosmic Aeroplane 65 7.0?...and if there are any other known pedigree 65s?  It’s interesting that not only is it missing from the Church collection, but almost every other pedigree as well.

I wasnt aware the Church collection did not include a Planet 65.

You might be right.  I don't know either way.  I just know it wasn't part of the group in the Event Auction from last year.

Doesn't mean there isn't one that has been in the past with certain books

I hear you.  More often than not, that kind of thing doesn't remain a secret though.  I mean the guys at Metropolis must have been told right?

[Ricksneatstuff]

I have been told there is not a Church Planet 65

Is this correct @Flex Mentallo and/or @jhutton2 @kelholt @adamstrange @Artboy99 ?

If it is out there and you enjoy copious amounts of money reach out to me please.

The Planet run was sold by Chuck before he put together his catalog, making it difficult to verify. 

Chuck sold a number of comics early on and a neat cover like Planet 65 (which would have been cheap at the time) could have been picked up by someone of modest means.  It would probably not have a code and could be out there in the collecting ether, hopefully to be eventually discovered, though perhaps without attribution to the Church collection. 

Or Edgar Church may never have owned it.
