A few months ago, I took a gamble on an auction with bad photos and scored big. A couple of weeks ago, I pressed my luck with another bad photo auction, and this one didn't turn out as well. I mean, the books are okay, but I probably wouldn't have bought them if I were able to see them a little better. As it is, I paid a little more than they're worth. Not real pleased with them, but only have myself to blame. I'll leave them in my collection - eventually they'll be worth a lot more. |

Quote:Originally Posted by starlord They look nicer with the Mylite glamour shots. TTA 42 and X-Men 20 are nice enough. TTA 43 has that stain in the bottom left, messed-up corner in the bottom right and a spine split problem. X-Men 16 has a tear in the cover (easiest to see where it crosses the big X). They're not awful, but I was hoping for better. |

@Darkseid_of_town yes original through Heritage Auctions - agreed very tragic. my son is only 13 so was hard to explain the talent/impact that Wally Wood had - I mean heck..when Steranko does an homage that's saying something!! |

The Cap 312 is a CPV that was hiding in plain sight at the LCS. I guess Abomination is a thing again since the TTA90s the shop had were marked up on the wall. Got the #91 I need for my run though. Some other odds and ends throughout the week(s). |

@DrWatson clearly crossdressing for the cover and he is wearing a Harry Osborn wig as well. Just noticed I was on a marvel picture hunt and ended up with all having a kind of picture frame or cut off color from the top and bottom of the cover sort of semi picture frame. |

Not entirely sure I agree regarding abomination. Character has been around awhile, has a decent backstory, and could easily be funneled into the coming Marvel pathway....its considered likely there will be a Thunderbolts group in the coming stories and this would be a great character to introduce and use later in the team. Slipping him into the early movies of this coming phase would allow for that...I think its a good book to have on its own merit and does have potential beyond | ||
