Yep! Sure miss those days but all relative. Probably felt it was pricy then. I remember a SDCC in the late ‘80’s passing on a very nice solid copy of Pep #34 for $120. Seller was Marty Hay from AZ. Anybody remember him? I was gulping offering him $100. And he wouldn’t do it…

Yep I remember Marty. Passed on a high-grade copy of that later Silver Streak with the torture meter cover he had. Probably from 1993 SDCC as well. Can’t remember what he was asking. Haven’t seen one that nice ever since.

ICYMI, and in case you lack only a Planet Comics #1 in 8.0 to finish your run of 8.0s, there's one up on MCS for only $49,999.95. (Here's something weird, though - the "want list" email I received had this price, but the site shows $59,999.  Maybe I get a discount

That would be highgrade for me tough early number

Absolutely phenomenal collection of Planet Comics coming to Heritage next month. Several Mile High copies.  Lots of high grade stunners.  I’ll be looking to snag an upgrade but not going to hold my breath!

I recognize several of those books. So many!

Just looked in OPG 52nd, and still no love for Planets

Overstreet is a joke and has been for as long as I can remember

Resistant to the sharp price increase which must be a bigger problem than ever in today's market!

[Spyder!]

I seriously got back into the hobby ten years ago, and I haven’t seen a single series priced even close to actual value by Overstreet in that time. It’s not just the sharp price increase. Just totally out of touch.

Whoops, I did it again.  In today's mail from MCS

High grade beauty! Congrats

I’m pretty thrilled about this one! Been after a copy ever since I first saw one years ago. I guess we’ll never know why they decided to change up the colors on this Zolnerowich classic, but I am here for it!
