john72tex Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 Except the fact that I have not won an auction in the last 2-3 big auctions... I probably won't win any of those you listed either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Too bad about the PQ & "Moderate tanning edges interior of front and back cover,"otherwise I'd be all over that...in spite of the Pedigree status. And what's up with that 'About the Justice League:' blurb??? Did they just recently start allowing extraneous exposition? Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This book is an extreme example of the problems commonly associated with the Mohawk books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Sorry, Highest Grade or not, that's not a good looking JLA #6. I don't get how that makes a 9.0 with such severe tanning. Maybe it's the scan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Sorry, Highest Grade or not, that's not a good looking JLA #6. I don't get how that makes a 9.0 with such severe tanning. Maybe it's the scan? Actually, the book looks pretty nice except for the big tan stripe running down the right side. , And what looks like rusty staples, although it's hard to tell (thanks for the big scans, Comiclink ). Perhaps it would have received a higher grade but for the tanning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Sorry, Highest Grade or not, that's not a good looking JLA #6. I don't get how that makes a 9.0 with such severe tanning. Maybe it's the scan? Well, it looks flawless except for the tanning...but yeah, that bugs me too, not just because of the tanning, but because it's in the form of a "shadow". It's hard to believe that a 9.2 has never shown up for this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 It's hard to believe that a 9.2 has never shown up for this issue. I've been looking since 1985, so...no, not that hard to believe. Regrettably. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I think #32 was one of the 1st old JLA's I remember reading. It was reprinted in the Treasury size Super Friends if memory serves. Nice copy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 OK, I think 10 days is long enough. Time to bump it up... Oddly enough, the whiteness in the ULC...isn't there! it's some kind of phantom blemish that's only in the scan. My good deal just got better. The scan of my JLA #29 on CL has the same thing; wear showing on the URC...that isn't actually there?? Anyone else come across this phenomenon? I'd try to fix it, but I'm terrible with photoshop ( sounds like something Danny-boy would say...to cover his tracks). Should have more time to post, now that the poker tournament is over.

john72tex Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Rick, I guess that's just the reflection of the scanner's light? BTW, did anyone win any JLA's on this week's C-Link Focused auction? That 42 didn't go as high as I expected, but the 73 finished pretty healthy at $408 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 John, If it is reflection, it's definitely odd to pinpoint to a specific spot like that. As for the #42, I would have nabbed it if I didn't already have Tim's 9.4. If the PQ were just a step higher, I would have at least taken a stab at it. And I'm glad the #73's price was robust; makes me feel better about over-paying for mine 4 years ago. Time heals...most wounds. I got the only book I really wanted, #114 9.4, for less than my max. Thank You. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 2004,,,? Scott (Acesilver) connection. I believe this is the only book I got from you...? Is your memory slipping, or do I need to reduce my dosage? Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john72tex Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 (edited) I would have gone for the 42 as well, but I had a couple of Green Lantern's I was gunning for. I ended up getting a GL 39 and 45 plus a Hawkman 4(first Zatanna). Edited March 20, 2008 by john72tex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperheart Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 i would have bid on the #42 if i hadn't just picked up a 9.4 i paid nearly the same amount for- oops. i was close on the #73 but not the #76. is it just me or do the books you bid on always seem to get more action than the ones you don't? i'd say silver DC were generally softish but not the books I was going after.
