Pretty books as usual Patrick!

[pickycollector]

Defenders #10 VF+ : $115

Classic Thor vs Hulk from the Avengers vs Defenders x-over.

Would be NM- but has some handling wear that does not break colors, perfect book for pressing..

[pickycollector]

Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom #1 CGC 7.5: $550

To the best of my knowledge, this book was not pressed. Looks great for its assigned grade.

Doctor Strange #169 VF+ : $600

[pickycollector]

Doc Savage #1,2,3,7,8 lot

All are in VF/NM or better condition. Take them all for $100

[pickycollector]

Eerie #81 NM- : $110

Such a classic cover and lot of female nudity in this one.

Looks NM+ but a small pen mark at top right of 1st page and what appear to be two faint finger marks on right edge explain the grade.

Epic Illustrated full run #1-34: $2,050

Many of them are file copies that I bought several years ago at multiples of Guide. This title was rather slow in the past but has recently increased in interest with good reasons: great stories, great art, a lot of female nudity and some first appearances. Issues #26-34 show the classic Last Galactus Story saga by John Byrne.

#1: 9.4

#2: 9.2

#3: 9.2 (9.6/9.8 if pressed) 1st app. Dreadstar

#4: 9.0

#5: 9.6

Fantastic Four #83 VF+ to VF/NM: $60

Would be NM- but there is a small writing indentation on fc, like if someone wrote a price on a sheet of paper above the comic. There is no ink nor any pen/pencil mark and this should be easily removed with pressing.

[pickycollector]

Fantastic Four #87 VF+ to VF/NM: $70

Dr. Doom story and tough issue to find in high grade.

Looks NM- from the front but small crease on lower right corner that does not break colors. Also, I think that this book has been pressed.

[pickycollector]

Fantastic Four #122 VF/NM: $100

One of the toughest BA FF's to find in high grade due to the black cover.

Date stamp on back cover

[pickycollector]

Fantastic Four #129 VF/NM: $220

1st app. Thundra

Looks NM- from the front but light tanning line on bottom of back cover.

[pickycollector]

Fear #3 former CGC 9.2: $85

Book was cracked out of its CGC slab but the CGC label has been kept and will be included with the book.

This is the John Fantucchio copy and looks slightly better imho. The notes mention creases but I barely see them and they do not break colors (except at the tip of upper left corner), tough grading by CGC on this one.

Frankenstein Monster #18 VF+ : $25

Wrightson cover.

Looks much better but light stacking bend on back cover that does not break colors. Would certainly benefit from pressing.
