I really want one and I can probably pay for one around 1000. So here is the deal. In order for me to get it, it’s going to require me to sell the modern slabs I have to get it. Books like power girl 27, wonder woman 184, detective comics 880, zatanna 16 and others. Would you do it? Yes I would You would be able to re buy those at a later date presumably While I like and own most of those books as well, I don't see them springing to life any time soon to make them unattainable oldbsturgeon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbsturgeon Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Well that’s what I sort of figured too. Got them listed on eBay right now ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Ries Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Absolutely do it. I have learned my lesson about trading off or selling a cool key book to get another cool key. All my acquisition decisions are lateral moves now at most. Not going to lose any more keys unless it's an offer I can't refuse. oldbsturgeon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I definitely sold all my modern slabs but I instead used that money to pay for some bills instead of buying the HoS 92 I don't blame you, times can be tough right now, glad you had something you were willing to part with and hope you made decent coin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually in a fairly good spot especially working from home right now, but just decided to pay bills with that money instead of my paycheck comicdonna and ADAMANTIUM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just me or does the flat colors add to eerie pop colors. Kind of an oxymoron, but snap it's like its midnight on the swamp by candle light and the moon a flickerin'!

Old_Man_Adam Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Love that cover , I recently sold a few of my DC / horror keys this year and that was one of them - for the most part it’s been funds to complete runs and continue with Marvel keys - but always a sought after book ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
