Popular Post Steelrain41 Posted January 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2020 I've wanted this book for a long time but didn't think I'd ever own a copy with how high the price has been. Thank God for auctions lol. I'm really happy to cross this one off the list. badback83, PunisherPunisherPunisher, ADAMANTIUM and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbukiLord Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Ordered and paid for this set, Derrick Chew Giant size X-men retailer variant. He is coming to Cape Town, South Africa Comic-Con so might get the virgin signed and slabbed. Krismusic, mec3437 and ADAMANTIUM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By "picked up" - I mean purchased. Supposed to arrive next week. I still haven't read anything, yet, this year. That mini-series might be the jump-start for 2020. I know a few people who crapped on it, but I actually enjoyed it. I'm not a big Superman reader, so maybe that has something to do with it. I liked Red Son, and that might be the only Superman story I've read all the way through, and it might not count because it was Elseworlds.

I gave Batman Damned a try, and it was okay. So, I'm gonna give the Black Label Superman a try (probably this weekend). Elseworlds Superman stuff is some of the best that there is. If you haven't read Kingdom Come, I'd recommend that. It's a Justice League mini-series, but I would say Superman-centric. Never read All-Star Superman? Some would say that it's his definitive series. Just a couple of titles to think about if you'd like to read more of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And cost only $331, which is at least $100 cheaper than my other 2 copies hahahaha, I either need to learn to put down the shovel or wave a white flag or something I just couldn't pass up the chance to upgrade at such a low cost, but my other 2 copies I may never get my money back, which is fine, with this book not all its value is monetary with me But at 3 copies, even I'm wondering when enough is enough! maybe since this copy is a "newsstand will make me feel better, haha HA At first I thought there was a big dent on the back and was going to say "Hey, get that big dent pressed out, maybe you can upgrade", and then I realized...it's a reflection of your hand. I never claimed to be that bright. Congrats on adding to the hoard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think That one was hard to take a pic of, I have a cold or "the crud" and couldn't hold a still picture, unless I got right up on it, so reflection! I get on a roll sometimes and it's hard to not look at past purchases, as I have a lot of VF's that at the time I didn't want to pony up for a NM, and in this case, the VF/NM was cheap enough to be due for an upgrade F For Fake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up a 9.8 back before the first big increase in value. I paid $350 or $400 for it, which I thought was a lot, but I felt it was the right time. A few months later I sold it for $1200 (or thereabouts) which I figured was SURELY the ceiling for the book. What do they run now? $2k or more? As stated, I'm not that bright. So I say enjoy your hoard! I don't think the book is going to tank anytime soon. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
