Silver Surfer Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 SS; you just never stop pulling them in - congrats on another great pickup........ Thank you BB. Not without some sacrifice as I had to unload some books to obtain the last few GA gems but less is more in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
october Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Not a bad storyline on this one either. Lucky dog. Does that carry a premium over its American counterpart? Are the Canadian versions significantly harder to find? Very cool book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howardhallis Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Not a bad storyline on this one either. What are the stories like? Does Captain America act like the Crypt Keeper as a narrator? Is the Red Skull featured in any of the weird tales or is he just on the cover? by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Lucky dog. Does that carry a premium over its American counterpart? Are the Canadian versions significantly harder to find? Very cool book. I'd say Timley reprints like this from Superior Publishing are gaining more value and attention as we speak. This issue certainly is not as rare (maybe it is?) as the Marvel Mystery Annual but the lone copy in the CGC census which was sold by PGC Mint last year (CGC 8.0) I believe went for around $7,000. The Marvel Mystery Annual is also fetching big dollars. I have the only Cap #73 in the CGC census and one of only two Sub-Mariner Comics #32 (labelled #31) and that is an 8.5 so if these books are running at a 75% m/v clip in relation to their U.S. counterparts I will be doing cart wheels. I think general consensus is that these books are slightly more rare than their U.S. counterparts so as far as I'm concerned I'd sell my originals first before I ever let these go. You just don't see these very often at all and maybe their are some floating around in attics up in Canada but these are prime pieces in my collection. I'm no expert but in the last 3 years of surfiing the internet for books these almost never surface, especially in high grade. ECComics is probably the resident expert on this topic.

Is the Red Skull featured in any of the weird tales or is he just on the cover? by the way Cap battles the Red Skull in Hell in a very brief (maybe 8 pages) but cool story. I don't want to mess with scanning pages as this is off to CGC for slabbing but I believe someone posted some cool panels in the GA section at one point.
