Not sure what the impact was but there seems to be an aversion to that era slab in the marketplace. We’re grading standards looser then? My experience indicates the answer is yes. $47k for that book is still a lot of money for a funny book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The origin of Orb was pretty intense back then.... It was, and for me in the 6th grade sitting in study hall reading it behind my book I wondered who is this Ghost Rider and how did he get like that. I just had to know. Good times. THE_BEYONDER and ThothAmon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually have the eBay window open on my "Option B" book that I will race to and hit the BIN if I really want it IF I see that the CLink or Comic Connect book ends at an insane price above the eBay one.
