OK, so it's more of a "these were shipped and here are the images you paid for" but I figured I'd share the big box that awaits me in a few days. Lots of good stuff in this lot, although I'm a little disappointed with the Thor #337. All the others made me smile!

This Astonishing Tales #6 turned out pretty well for a comic from 1971...



Thor #337 was a bit of a disappointment. This will be for sale soon as I look for a better copy. If anyone is interested in this, PM me with an offer...



But I'll take this Groo #1 from Pacific any day of the week.



And this is the second near-perfect addition to my Moon Knight collection. Moon Knight #1 from 2016 with the Bazinga Comics exclusive cover.

I can't see the rear cover of Thor, but only see 2 small spine tics on the front cover. What were grader notes? (can't see the numbers)

Unfortunate. Moderns get hit so hard with any miniscule findings.

One of my largest collections is Groo. I can never get a good grading on mine, read Groo multiple times as a kid and as a kid I would roll up that comic and put it in my back pocket.

I really got lucky on the Groo #1. It was part of a lot that included his first appearance in Destroyer Duck and all 8 Pacific issues. It cost me $50.

The pressing service did a really good job and got me a 9.8 so I'm really pleased. I hope you're able to get one in high grade soon too. Groo was a really fun book!

I use to crack up at how obvious his actions were going to go all wrong!
