Quote:Originally Posted by esaravo you say that...but one of them has a decent indent on the back cover and being card stock I'm not really sure it could press out. Almost want to grade 1 and keep the other raw so I can still enjoy the 3D! |

| My doubles are of the not cool variety. The one time I thought it would be funny to go after a book purely for kicks, the internet caught on to Dakota North. Nice books everyone! | ||

| @Scifinator and @GAC I came to this thread hoping to see some Silver Surfers! I haven't been collecting for very long. Just started up after abandoning it in my teens. I don't have many duplicates in slab form, and I only really collect Silver Surfer books, but here are a few meager duplicates that I do have (sorry for the glare, I didn't have time to set up these shots). I love those #10s.   |

Okay, I found a few more. Have fun.     Yes, that really is FOUR copies of Captain Confederacy, and I seriously have no idea why there are so many. Apparently they breed.  To cap things off, this next one may not have multiple copies, but it sure has multiple COVERS.   Why else would I slab a copy of The Futurians?  |

I had a similar pause right after graduating High School, I was out of collecting for 9 years, was in for another 4 years, then was out for another 15. When I finish my first 36 Silver Surfer appearances, Rom, and G.I. Joe runs I will be out other than for upgrade opportunities. Norrin is so Radd |

Quote:Originally Posted by Scifinator Oh, yes. I know about taking a break. I was in it for a lo-o-ong time (worked in my LCS for 5 years of that time), then I went to college. A choice had to be made: Comics or tuition. I sold a LOT of my books for tuition, and while I don't regret the college, I sure do regret selling those books! Quote: Originally Posted by Scifinator I wish I had 4 copies of #3, too! I met Dave Stevens not long after these came out, and got him to sign Pacific Presents #1 & #2. He was really a nice guy, and just getting started out at the time. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Scifinator I went with Silverado because Nova refers to Surfer as such during their little fling. I always found this instance a touch hilarious.  |

| These are a combination of mine and copies from Mike Royer's collection, purchased from Mike at SDCC 2019. Two of them were submitted at CBCS. I'll split them up in two posts.                                                                                                                                                                       |

Disappointed to see the McFarlane issues (besides #1) don't matter to anyone unless they're 9.8 Newsstands. I won't post them all, but I have anywhere from 3-9 copies (a few NS) each of #2-#14, plus 4 hologram #26's.    |

Been rooting around in my boxes recently... Some of these I used to give away free to kids at conventions when I had a booth.     |

That's my concern actually... How many of these are actually still in people's collections waiting to be graded?  They printed millions of these. How many are still out there unread? (This is from one longbox... Silver and Gold Spider-man #1s)  Still kind of cool to look at in a weird way... |

Quote:Originally Posted by Scifinator These (the Spidey's as well as the others I'll be posting) are the result of building a run and my making filling the gaps the priority. I completed the run fairly quickly this way, and over time I upgrade when the right one crosses my sight. Since I don't regularly sell comics, they stack up. I am thinking about downsizing, though. Really no need for so many raw duplicates. |
