The wonder woman is in sweet condition.

A little disappointed in the Phantom Stranger 10s condition. But I don't have one so it's better then nothing and I've always loved the cover.

@southerncross Those Phantom Stranger books are sweet. Wish Mark would have gotten a few more of those.

Yesterday I received my latest submission back from CBCS.
Several of them are from Mark's collection.

These are the two you gave me a few months ago. Very much appreciated.
I remember you had posted these books and I commented that # 3 would go nicely with my chained collection.
Next thing I know these two books were in my mailbox.
You rock!

@southerncross This is the book we spoke about the other night.
Thank you for allowing me to buy this "pearl" as you called it.
I had it graded between 9.4 & 9.6. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box to find this one.
Thank you my friend. Very much appreciated.
I will hold on to this one for a long time.

I'm thinking my copy has a shot at a 9.8 as well.

I wouldn't mind getting the iron man 44 graded.

There's no 9.8 graded so far in the census

@southerncross So is Mark still bringing books into the store? The website has been pretty quiet lately. Maybe they all sell before Alan can list them. 🙂

Everything has been brought in, just check the website. Not everything gets listed on the website.

If there's a book that says multiple copies and says sold out, just send a email to see if there's any copies left.
Been selling quite a bit.

I sold a ton of books while Alan was away on vacation last week.
And they've had a collector fly in and leave with 4 short boxes of books full.

All my purchases will be at the graders later this month. My biggest problem will be parting with many of them.

Yea, there were a number of books that I was hoping to see but never saw. It's possible that Alan got copies but they sold quickly or maybe that Mark just never had them to bring in.

I was able to get really nice copies of Adventure Comics #432-436 (Spectre issues) but I never saw #431 or #437 through #440.

I never saw a Swamp Thing #1. ☹️

And it would been have been nice to see more Phantom Strangers and Teen Titans.

Still, it was a helluva run while it lasted, that's for sure.

@DWeeB1967

I got a 433 so there must have been 2 copies of that.




There were no Swamp Thing 1 in the collection. Not a single issue which was strange.

Not sure about the teen titans.
The phantom strangers, Witching hours and Spidey super stories u kind of grabbed them as they were mostly single copy issues.
Even those I didn't get all of them as copies were sold before I could see them.

There were a few books that sold the day they would come into the store.
A couple of regulars would turn up every Thursday.

I missed out seeing half a dozen mid grade timely golden age.
Spideys including 129 that was a single copy.

The Batman 241 and other books.
There was only a couple of issues of House of secrets and no 92.
No Hulk 181, 182 but there was a Hulk 180 that came and went.
I think 3 copies of New Gods 1 for some reason.

Very strange yet unique collection.

Absolutely, @southerncross. Very strange collection.

As I (and others) have said before, thanks to you for turning us on to this collection. It was lots of fun. I spent way too much money but got some really nice books.

Keep the high graded ones and sell/trade the lower graded ones.

I'm waiting for mine to be graded. I got a super nice HERO FOR HIRE #1 and STRAGE TALES #169 !! (plus a few others too!!)
