Just got in a run of All-Star from #58 to #74, missing #73. 58 was the reason I wanted it, guy wanted to sell the whole lot so I bought it. They're all in mid-grade+ condition I think, though 58 has a color breaking crease on the front and back cover. Almost looks like it was clipped or something cause the damage is in the same spot(s). Could use a good press and I think that'll be the main downfall. I'll definitely be sending that one off for grading. Not sure what I want to do with the rest yet, maybe sell them as a lot on MCS, maybe keep em, not sure. I haven't taken my own pictures yet, these are the ones he sent me so sorry of they're not that great. |

Back, fresh from grading. I think this series was underrated. Had a few Ivar remarks put on by Bob Hall. (id love to see this put into a movie). Close up of one of them |

@HeinzDad Thank you! It's definitely a pain in the butt finding higher grade copies of the early Ghosts and Witching Hour books. Fortunately, Doug Sulipa helped me out on #1 of each and they were fairly nice. VF copies for sure. I got the #2 and 5 above from Bob Storms. I haven't seen too many early issues at the stores either. I think this area is tapped on a lot of stuff (GA, key SA, high grade BA, pulps, horror and western). Super cool dealers come through and clean the stores out on a fairly regular basis. Rat bastards. | ||

I ran across that copy at my local con a month ago. I'm pretty familiar with a lot of the guys in a 60 mile radius but I can't even remember which guy had it... :{ | ||

How do I know this? Because I've done it myself. | lawguy1977 private msg quote post Address this user | |
@Bronte Nice book, I'd say 3.5. It presents really well, it's just the staining and that left bottom corner that I think takes it down. | ||

I got all this stuff today. Each VSP took help from forum friends. Thanks @00slim for trading me this book. One night I posted and asked if anyone ever had a lead on a signed copy of this let me know. I never thought about it again until this showed up in the mail. It was published in April in 85 but not released until July. Naturally this peaks my interest being a Constantine guy and Swampy 37 was released in June. Big shout out to @Cli4dR3DOg. Who says that searching eBay intoxicated on a Saturday at 1 am doesn't pay off. I couldn't find any info as to why Wrightson would have signed this book. I asked on the forum at the time and @Bronte was up and sending me links! It seems that Wrightson did the inks on DR Glitternight. I bought it as soon as I read that, Thanks @Bronte. I also grabbed these since I had store credit at a store. Thanks M and B Subculture in Bucyrus for selling some slabs for me! |

To answer your question, no, this is not where the comics go to die. | MutantMania private msg quote post Address this user | |
Picked this set up today for 50 bucks Hopefully they'll have another discount offer sometime soon so I can get them graded. I was thinking about pressing as well but don't know if it'll be worth it. The guy also said he had the original Wolverine series from 1 - 150 or so somewhere that he would sell me once he finds them. |

I haven't aired it out. It's part of the provenance. | Galen130 private msg quote post Address this user | |
Even though I haven’t posted in the ‘other’ forums since last November, I still peek from time to time to see what’s being sold by the more reputable sellers there. This one will ship soon. |

I read amazing spider-man Thor Avengers X-Men Fantastic Four Power Rangers and do get an issue here and there of random stuff |
