We are not worthy! (worship)(worship)(worship) curious, but when did you start assembling your spiderman run?

I started collecting as a kid in '70s. But I bought most of my ASM keepers in the '90s and early 2000s.

 

Great time to buy back then I think.. If only I was born earlier lol I'll trade my AF #15 for yours :baiting:

Seriously, Barton is a comic GOD! (worship)(worship)(worship)

 

I'd pay money just to spend like an hour in his comic room!

 

Actually being ahead of him in one measly little minor Registry set is probably the crowning achievement of my comic collecting career! :cloud9:

Most impressive run of comics ever seen by man.

 

I'm not sure I'd be in the hobby if I had that much investment in it.

 

It's like we came, we conquered, so what's next ? (shrug)

Your AF15 is pretty freaking sick itself! Not to mention your sons! (worship)

 

I'm scared to even look at how nice I'm sure your Spidey run is :o

It's comic heaven there. I think Barton says "it's all fun". That AF15 is out of this world. (worship)

Wow! Amazing!!! So much Old Label Goodness there too. :o:cloud9:

 

An interesting aspect of the certification lookup tool is that you can identify books that are old label-graded but have a new label due to reholdering since they show the grading date in the detail. My ASM 1 has a new label, and I was already aware that it used to be in an old-label holder because forum member Robert Zipperer used to own it and I saw a scan of it when he first bought it via E-Bay, but now that they've opened the cert tool up, I found that it was graded in early 2000 shortly after CGC started up. I wasn't sure until then whether it was a crack and resub or just a reholder. So I knew it was old-label, but I didn't know it was THAT old-label. :whee:

And because I don't love the lighting or focus issues on the group shot...

The stuff of dreams.

 

I'm amazed at the quality of your run. Regardless of the grades (which are stellar), the wraps, the PQ, and the colors make for just absolutely gorgeous books. Clearly you were picky in putting it together. Fantastic (worship)
