Arcade Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 WOW. No silver X-Men post since before Christmas. Well I am starting to move over into the Silver age from the Bronze so that will change. Here is a book I just purchased from Steve Borock this morning before the ascension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcade Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Posted these in the Comic Link Wins thread but they need to be here as well. Got 5 silver age books. Most for under $35.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcade Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Anyone out there. (Shouts into the wind.) Am I the only one collecting theses things now. Anyway it should be obvious I am not really after super high grade on these right now, though 7.5 seems to be my low cut off point at the moment. After I fill in most of my holes I will worry about upgrading them. So what are the hard to get in grade books from this run? 1-93. I know 1-66 are new and 67-93 are reprints. I know Neal Adams did a few covers, but which books are the most difficult to acquire besides #1-10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's when you get to 9.4 or higher, that it get's a little tough to find them. Out of the 11-93 run; 73, 74 and 79 are the toughest to find in 9.0 or higher. And they get very pricey in those grades.

Thanks Casey. I am however doing 7.5 and over, not under. I will probably make most of the reprint issues 8.5 or higher I have spent so much on my high grade bronze run that it will be nice to buy cheap books again. I will keep an eye out for good copies of 73,74 and 79. Thanks, Leon. Edited February 2, 2009 by Arcade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
