gaz973 Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Hey now, lets not get crazy. No reason for the FF to change . Pretty good creation from the get go. Invisible girl certainly changed powers. That's true but it was very early on. How much have they changed since the end of the Silver Age? Every time a writer tries to show some character growth in Johnny Storm for example, the next writer comes along and regresses him to being an immature fool. I guess at least they don't need a deal with Mephisto to wipe out any progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course any change was short lived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewincanada Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Avengers #30 won on eBay..... Nice one! And better PQ than my #30. Funny that we both picked up #30s on Ebay within a week or so of each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Thanks. Picked it up for a nice price ($105) and there was only 1 other bidder in the auction . I paid $7 more than you, and I got OW pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetah Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 These are some of my recent additions. Drew, you and I need to get together sometime cause I think we step on each other's toes a lot when it comes to grabbing HG Avengers books. And my best purchase in a while. I didn't cost me the left testicle I thought it would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew, you and I need to get together sometime cause I think we step on each other's toes a lot when it comes to grabbing HG Avengers books. [insert scans of 3 really fine HG Avengers books here] OMFG! Those are fantastic. The 19 is excellent, but that #40 is really sweet. Cover alignment is superb, and the top corners could poke your eye out. Wish I could see the bottom edge... Cheetah - let's talk. I'm happy to keep off your toes. PM me.

agro23 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Congrats on the Avengers # 1. What do you put it's grade at? Probably a 3.0 or so. There is a nasty gouge running the height of the second E in the logo up into the Iron Man burst. The paper is still there but it's a rip nonetheless. But the staples are tight, the colors are better than my scanner does it justice, and the pages are off white. There's some creasing here and there and the little chip out at the bottom of the cover. The interior is really nice though. I'm going to send it off to CGC as soon as I get sick of flipping through it and just holding a book I've wanted off and on for 30 years (no exaggeration).
