Hmm interesting, well will look forward to seeing how that finishes.

I won't be happy if it doesn't set a new record.  Need one of those apes with diamond hands and a rocket to take this to the moon. :Rocket:

I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue...(:

Surely you're joking. I have a 9.2 GSX 1 ending tonight sandwiched 30 seconds between a 9.4 and a 9.0. I'm already on my 3rd tube. doh!

That's amazing.  Since Disney got Fox the F.F. woke up from a long slumber and has been on fire ever since. Good job! ^^

Finished strong!

The previous 7.0 that sold for $12k in 2020 had Off-White pages, and the back cover has some characteristic discoloration from this.  It's being offered on Heritage's site for $18,000. The 8.5 (highest graded) sold for $43,200 in 2021 has White Pages.  A lot of crazy prices were flying around in 2021, so not sure if it were sold today that it would hold or move up.  My 7.0 with Off-White to White pages deserved a better selling price over the previous 7.0 due to page quality*, but it took me by surprise, happily,  by how much better it ended.

Black Knight #1 has taken off since 2015.  The whole 5 issue run is a short, sweet set to collect with beautiful Maneely art.  I hope the new owner goes for the set, :cloud9:

* Check scans on both books and tell me what you see.

Won two, lost one.  #1 went lower than I expected but not crazy low.

The Archie’s definitely did well so it’s a little surprising the relatively low hammer for those two beauties. I put in some punishment bids on all the Archie’s I need but only won 2 of the later ones.

Where's the freaking crash?!

Crypto down, stock market down, cards down (supposedly), real estate down (supposedly). 

But comics up.  Like always. 

I have collected comics for over 50 years. If you told me when I started, or all along the way they would be worth what they are today, I would have said you were crazy.

I have always bought what I liked and could afford with a minimal interest in value. And I kept most of them. Was I smart? Lucky? Maybe a little of both. I still love my books a lot more than a pile of cash though. The only thing money means to me at this point is the ability to buy more…:devil:
