I got it when I was 11 or 12. I've never been interested in upgrading it either. Many times I've thought about cutting out that last panel, Wolverine's first appearance. One day I might. Don't cut it out, just fold the back cover back, and put it in a mylar with the last page facing forward. I remember back in the 70s when dealers would fold National Lampoons with Neal Adams Son O God Comics back so the Adams art would be displayed.

I'm going to claim it, and will post up my offer of a low-grade Ninjak comic shortly. I did not clip the Hulk 180 page from the book. I purchased an Ebay lot of pages removed from comics that contained all 307 of the Marvel Value Stamps from the mid 1970's. Each page is the entire letters page from the book with stamp included. As I collect MVS stuff the auction was tailor made for me. I purchased the lot and it included a few other pages including the one from Incredible Hulk #180. I do like to have the framed page up on my wall though. I wouldn't have any reservations of taking that Venom page from a beat copy of 299, and neither should anyone else. The book isn't rare. grendelbo and MGsimba77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fmaz Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 It’s your book, do what brings you joy. If we were talking about something exceedingly rare and valuable the above would STILL be true… only difference being that the amount of value you’d be destroying might give you pause.

MGsimba77 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 The venom page from 299 with a Mcfarlane sig in a slab might be more appealing than the slabbed book. Unless it's a 9.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
