These are exponentially more difficult than any American book,,

 

just think, with alot of money you can buy ANY book at ANY grade whejn you log onto Heritage Auctions or Ebay...

 

These books took me half a year to even find one copy of each...

 

They are so rare they are all ZERO CGCed in existence.

ZERO CGC'ed

These are not too expensive but I turned down $250 for each one at WonderCon due to rarity

Greek Amazing Spiderman #1 and Amazing Fantasy #15

Itai Supes has blue boots

 

German Supes has shorter legs.

 

haha yeah i guess the germans didnt like the American so tall.

Isnt it great for the bulk of the heroes to be American ? (thumbs u

 

Just imagine if Schuster or Seigel were German in 1940's

 

We would have a VERY VERY VERY different "Super-N-A-Z-I-man"

My biggest comic purchase of the year arrived from Spain yesterday.

 

I had posted in a previous post about getting 7 issues of the Ediciones Vertice Dr. Extrano series, and was actively looking for the other 7 when I found an auction offering the entire run. Since these are very rare, I decided to go for it. So here's the whole series! (Each book was wrapped so nicely in plastic I decided not to remove it when I did the scans, so some books might show some glare.)

Finally, also from Spain, another cover not published in America:
