| @Darkseid_of_town Agreed! Love the characters and if done right, I think Barda will be very very popular. I pick up high grade copies whenever I can of 4. | ||

| Used my ebay bucks and got a really good deal on this book! I think it could benefit, at least a little bit, from a future press. Next book on my list is Hulk 449!  |

This box came today I have not seen this sticker before  It was a boarded comic wrapped in bubble wrap, with 2 sheets of paper and wadded up newspaper inside  But the book was just fine, 6.0 I think  |

And these came too, every one is missing 10 pages or so. My plan is as I run across coverless, I will marry them, and make myself reader copies. Missing 8 and 15 though.The definition of a man with too much time |

Quote:Originally Posted by sportshort Congratulations on that classic Jack Kirby book! You most certainly don't owe me any apology for anything. Every collector has their own unique tolerances and collecting style and doesn't have to justify that to anybody else, and most certainly not me. All that really matters is that YOU are happy and find enjoyment with your collection. Happy collecting! |

Quote:Originally Posted by Steverogers11 I have kind of shied away from similar staple placement, but I personally feel as @Steverogers11 does, the nice wrap is much more important. I could live with the staples. Beautiful book! congratulations on that nicely centered book! |

Quote:Originally Posted by obrie2tm Nice looking MM #4 book, but its the FF #45 that caught my eye! Nice sharp color with solid looking edges and corners and a beautiful cover wrap. You can't go wrong with a book like that! |

| @Darkseid_of_town yup! that's why I've got 5 copies of 8.5 and better. Hoping the new pickup grades out around 9.4-9.6 to stay in my PC. | ||

@sportshort nice pick it up  Me personally low grade books and mid grade like your New God's 1 with a mis wrap is perfectly fine  It's when the books hit the 9s I'm less inclined to like. Way I see it if you're paying for a book in the 9s and with so many graded I'd rather one not just in good condition but one that was manufactured perfectly as well. Unless the book is priced as a bargain. Wallet wins every time |

My latest auction win arrived today. Just need #80 and that just slighty expensive #1. If you have either of those issues available, send me a PM. I would love to talk about a cash and/or trade deal. |

Quote:Originally Posted by obrie2tm  Your Welcome. Sometimes I just like the comic books for being comic books and not necessarily for what their monetary value. Good eye on the blue FF cover. How is the cover surface on that book? While it looks really nice, scans can be misleading sometimes. |

Quote:Originally Posted by sportshort Glad I could help. The cover wrap is the first thing I personally look for in a comic book and its very important to me. Its less of an issue for others as everybody has their own personal tastes and preferences which is what makes each collection uniquely personalized. Thanks again posting such a classic book  |
