thedude Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 I just wanted to thank you Alton, for starting one of the best threads in my 14 months with the boards. I am expecting a package from CGC today. I may post a picture of my group of two. I would also like to thank everyone for posting their great collections. Every one of them is most impressive. Mike no problem comicdonna, I was only inspired by the group shots I've seen in prior threads, like Ian's pics, Batman-fan and others.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotemo Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I tried this the other day but my files weren't linking from my remote location. Here are some groups of comics from my collection. I haven't been able to get good photos of groups of comics but these are okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I must say, this thread has been excellent! So many great books, such a wide range of collecting interest. Everyone, thanks for posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Here are some groups of comics from my collection. I haven't been able to get good photos of groups of comics but these are okay. When I first looked, the first and second pics blended in with each other and I thought "he's got 2 runs of Archie!" Then I looked closer and realized it was two photos of the same group of books. Still, very, VERY impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mica Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 I tried to photograph these, but I sure didn't like the results. I only lined up a few books to see what they would look like. I'm glad I didn't do this for all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
143ksk Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Awesome books, lotemo. I'm jealous of your Peps (especially the #44 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobpfef Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Nice Classics Mica. I've got a short box of readers, they are neat comics. Do you try to get all the different covers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mica Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Nice Classics Mica. I've got a short box of readers, they are neat comics. Do you try to get all the different covers? Thanks, yeah on occasion I may go for a different cover, but it's not necessary all the time. Sometimes the interior artwork changes, but often just a slight cover change is all that happens.

Zonker Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Thanks for lightening it up, Scrooge! When you first posted Saturday, I didn't really see the point, as the two versions looked very similar on my home computer. Here at work though my original is very hard to see. I'm not sure if it is due to different graphics cards in the two different systems, or just the lighting here in cubicle-land, but regardless... thank you! I was also going to comment on that Adventure 65. Not about the odd colouring but about the sweetness of the cover itself. A great book, married cover or not. I do tend to like those S&K Guardian covers as well. Glad you broke out the camera Zonker Aussie Russ, those look like great books and there was something fun and exciting (I don't need much) about seeing new Blackhawk covers Here's a lighter version so we can see the other books besides BH # 19 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comicdey Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Here's a little mini group shot..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comicdey Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 One more mini group shot (as it's only a four issue set). I need to crack the two slabs or buy a lower grade reader copy for the #4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Nice books! Love the Planet. What's the difference in those two similar but very different version of Northwest Mounties. The cover dress is different as well as the art! Is this US versus Canada or different time / printing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point Five Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I was wondering the same thing, Scrooge! The NW Mounties on the left seems to have a pence mark in the LLC, no? Maybe there were two different printings, and the second printing had to be redrawn/swiped because they didn't have access to the original art for some reason? I'd like to see closeups of those.

Comicdey Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 The Northwest Mounties #2 are U.S. Version on the right and Australian on the left. I purchased the Aussie version off ebay out of curiosity. The cover is a complete re-draw. I'd have to go back and check to see if the interiors are as well.

ronm3-migration Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Here's my group of 2 I hopew to add some more soon. That Action 83 is the nicest 4.0 I have ever seen! What am i missing on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicdonna Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I graded the book before sending it in. It is very solid, with off-white pages. Right on top of where it says april, there is a tear measuring 3/4" right on the money. CGC did a great job, making sure it didn't show. I was very pleased with the book. CGC was a little hard on the #99 IMO It has white pages, with no tears. I like the idea of buying raw, and looking the book over before sending it to CGC. I am going to be very careful, and search for books with nice colors. BTW the seller gave the #99 a 8.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
