Icculus308win Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Nice man! They subs or purchased? All purchased. I have a bunch of DDs that I'll be subbing soon. I've got a growing pile ready to go. I miss those days already with DDs, I do have a growing pile of Gold Key, FCs/Dells and Turtle books that I need to get to subbin.

MintyMint Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 (edited) Picked this baby up at Heritage today. Not sure why it was relegated to the Saturday session but am grateful all the same. Edited February 20, 2016 by MintyMint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romanheart Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 It sure is an attractive early cover. I'm sure it's pretty costly as well. Makes my head hurt when I think of what a high grade 16 costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MintyMint Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 It sure is an attractive early cover. I'm sure it's pretty costly as well. Makes my head hurt when I think of what a high grade 16 costs. This 17 went for 58% of the high for the grade on GPA and for less than a 9.4 copy sold for in 2011. As for high grade 16's, yeah they're pricey but a nice copy in 9.4 sold for around $1,200 a year ago which doesn't seem that crazy for such an awesome book...

Silver Surfer Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Barton you need to resub a ton of your 9.6's because they look like 9.8's to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Town Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) #12 such a hard book universally to find or get in HG. #31 was another for me personally. Your #10 is a thing of Fricken Beauty btw!! #31 was really tough for me too. My copy is from the Hollywood Hills collection that SoCal Comics sold on eBay many years ago. I'm not sure why that book is tough in high grade compared to others that were released around the same time. Maybe it's all that black on the front cover?

Icculus308win Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Interesting that for you too, #31 was a speed bump. (I definitely know of the HH collection. Was there a solid DD run, or just piecemeal run or books?) It has to be that cover. The black, the charcoal and than gray must all contribute to the toughness of finding HG copies. Such a killer copy you have!! Just checked census: 2 9.8s 3 9.6s 13 9.4s I would surmise that of the 5 top tiered books, not many have seen or will see a new abode anytime soon Edited February 23, 2016 by icculus308win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
