Hey Tim; In light of your fear and obvious OCD behavior here and the neeed for you to get over it, I am wiling to step up to the plate to help you wean off your need to always acquire these CGC highest graded copies of comic books. I suggest we start slowly with a few 9.2's and 9.0's from my own personal collection before moving further down into the 8's. Of course, since we know that overcoming OCD is a slow and progressive step by step process, you can continue to pay CGC highest graded equivalent prices so that you will feel more comfortable and at home during this whole process. Before you know it, you'll be down here in the cesspool with the rest of us chasing and bidding on all of these CGC 4.0 and CGC 6.0 graded copies of books.

I had always wanted a copy but they used to sell for a lot more than I wanted to pay. About three years ago I did a trade with an old time collector and picked up this pretty 7.0ish raw copy.. I’ve got probably a vg copy I picked up in a trade group many years ago. Never did like the cover. But, when you open it up, it has some of the best Alex Raymond cover to cover art in the hobby! Never judge a book by it’s cover... MrBedrock and aardvark88 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tth2 Posted July 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2020 I have to admit, I don't love the Jessie Marsh covers on the early Tarzans. I became a collector of the comics because of their great painted covers. ThothAmon, vaultkeeper, Randall Dowling and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could use a little of Jane in the mix... Yes indeed, as I watched the latest Tarzan movie on TV the other night and I must say that Jane was looking pretty vivacious and sultry in her role. Definitely couldn't say the same thing about her role in Suicide Squard as Harley Quinn though, as I had to delete that POS movie off before the end of the first hour.
