drewincanada Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Personally, I don't care much for signatures. I've never sought out SS books. From what I've seen here, SS collectors appear to be a relatively small segment of the collecting scene. But really, it doesn't matter what anyone else does. If YOU like sigs, then go for it. As for grading, as many here will tell you, buy the book, not the grade. You can find books in a fairly wide range of conditions that all have the same CGC grade on their slabs.

ComicConnoisseur Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I would love to get Steve Ditko`s signature on any comic, that would be something. Stan Lee is easy to get, what book won`t he and William Shatner not sign? same with Adam West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Yeah, that's one sig I'd defile a comic cover to get. Heck, if Ditko announced that he had decided to do a sig session, but he'd only sign people's left butt cheeks, there'd still be a queue out the door and down the street.

sassemble Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Let's get things hopping on this thread! I've been rebagging, boarding and grading my SA Avengers (and scanning some). Here are a couple (which are also in the PGM thread) ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassemble Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Awesome books, Drew. I especially am fond of the #26. Can't get much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheetah Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 What a beauty, Andrew. Your scan sucks, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I think in future I should only buy comics from people who know how how to scan. A bit better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheetah Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 knowing how to scan and having a decent scanner are, at least in this case, two different things. I thought it was a good buy on eBay...but I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Bad scan. Amazing Avengers #10. For those who are missing the context of the past few posts, cheetah sold me that copy of #10. (thumbs u It was his undercopy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetah Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Avengers 88 is listed as having a second printing. Does anyone know if this was a modern reprinting or if it occurred immediately after the first printing. Anyone know how to tell the second printing from the first?

Jeff, I found this info on mycomicshop.com: Avengers (1963-1996 1st Series) 2nd Printing #88 Marvel: 1994 Original cover price: $0.15 More information... This is the 2nd printing.

cheetah Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Great stuff, Andrew. I should have thought to check there. It answers a number of questions I had about some other titles, too. It looks like there is a #4 reprint, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
