Came to the realization I couldn't afford an Amazing Fantasy #15, so I settled for an amazing #1. Now I'll focus on the villain first appearances

Nice book!

I'd do the same if I were you. I'd take piecing together ASM 1-15 over waiting forever for AF 15 anyday!

p><p> I

 

It's that line of thinking-whether you agree with it or not-that leads me to believe that ASM 1 is a better book than people have at times given it credit for being.

 

Second appearance of the medium's (arguably) most popular character, and the first issue of the company's flagship title. Is it an AF15? No, but it's a pretty big book nonetheless.

 

And count me as one who actually LIKES the cover.

 

Nice presenting copy, btw.

Awesome thread. Not sure why I've never noticed it before.

 

I'm just starting after Spidey 1-50 and AF 15. I've got a ways to go! lol

 

This is how I'm planning my set:

-1: 2.0-3.0

-2 through 10: 4.0-6.0

11 through 19: 6.0

20 through 50: 7.0 or higher

 

Already have 13 (7.0), 14 (7.0), 31 (7.0), 39 (8.0), 40 (8.0), 41 (7.5), 46 (7.5).

 

If anyone happens to find any that are on that goal list, please PM me! :grin:

I'm working on completing the run too...I like how you broke down your set goals...I never laid my own that specifically but seems to mirror my own balance of budget and grade...I'm not going for all CGC books though...Do you have a time frame by when you would like to complete it? Good Luck!

Great minds think alike... ;)

 

I figure that I'll have at least 4 through 50 by the end of the year. AF 15 sales are crazy right now and I may have to wait a year or two to pick one up.

 

Good luck to you too!
