All Things Stan Lee Thread7372

@Batman66 Those are sick! I bet Stan was impressed with the FF #1. It has to be something of an honor to see something you helped create be cherished. I'm loving this thread. So many amazing examples. I already posted this one on another thread but in case you missed it, this is my double signed mistake Stan Lee. |

@DJC_II I have a first phoenix too but it's in real badddd shape. I don't know what pressing will do. Might press pretty good. I really don't know. I got so many keys I wish Stan could of signed. |

I'm hoping Disney/Marvel put some serious money into a Stan Lee biopic; like Ken Burns/just hand us the Oscar level quality. | ||

It'd be pretty interesting to see what they could do, but I'm not sure how they'd make it, there's some documentaries about Stan, but nothing theater quality. What would be cool is if they can make it like he's a young man and he slips into his thoughts/ideas while he's working at Marvel about a comic book character, suddenly he's that character. I dunno, hopefully if they do a movie about him, make it cool as fk. | ||

I showed my wife and she was so happy for me she started to cry. | Batman66 private msg quote post Address this user | |
Quote:Originally Posted by Crunkpostitim sure Stan has seen hundreds of ff1's and most likely has a near mint copy for himself. Looking back, it was a blessing that it took so long for us to stand in line (7+hours) so long. We weren't supposed to take pics, but the guys at the table was ok with it, because of the wait. We were able to get in the LA comic con the next day for free, there we got to have Todd McFarland sign about 6 of my books for free. Really enjoyed talking to him, way cool. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Batman66 That's really cool, I never waited 7+hours to get my stuff signed, however it was Dallas comicon, so probably not as crazy. I needed to get Todd to sign some stuff but he was too busy and the lines were really long plus time. I'll eventually get to meet him, he's on my list lol. This was where I had him sign my Hulk 181 but I also gave him my Giant Size Xmen 1 to sign too. He signed the Hulk then signed the GS1 but put the gs1 on top of my Hulk smearing the sig that was still wet. After the line was done the girl with desert wind took it to Stan and he resigned it no extra charge. Also got Len Wein to sign it for $1 lol. |

Quote:Originally Posted by kaptainmykeYeah. The original sig was very crisp. :.( I cracked this from a pgx holder graded at a 6.0. It needs a good clean and press. Do the whole sig verify shabang. I'm curious how much it'll upgrade? This one is my baby. Marvel stamp intact too. |

Quote:Originally Posted by kevinlmillard Looks like you all had a blast. This is a Dallas fan expo con? Those were some great events. I should have made more of them. This is the GS#1 that got tossed on my Hulk 181 and smeared the sig. I had Len sign it, then Stan signed it and almost signed over Len's name! I think this was the 2012 Dallas Fandays event. Pretty cool shield and helmet. |

@Crunkpostit Yes it was Dallas Fan Expo 2 years ago. I also had him sign this one the year before. That sucks that the signatures were blured like that. |

Quote:Originally Posted by kevinlmillard It doesnt look blurred to me. Looks very nice. Stan did this one in a silver paint pen. The splatch kinda threw me off but it's very nice. He even told me "be very careful it's wet and can smear". Kinda ironic years later with the Hulk and GS1 incident. |

I've got a couple... These two are at CBCS now These all will eventually get reds. This is the only one there is. It was supposed to go to CBCS but there was a screwup with the facilitator, when funds allow I will probably get it redone. This one's probably my personal favorite, I bought it slabbed at 4.0 and it came back 5.5 with no cleaning or pressing. And of course, my treasure. |

Suck it up, buttercup!! | KatKomics private msg quote post Address this user | |
ok...little story behind this book. For those of you over say... 30 you may remember a time before recycling. My beaver pack (beaver/cubs/scouts etc) had a paper drive going on; basically you collected paper I don't know how but the adults would sell it?? and we would raise money. I grew up in a small town (3,000 in the town proper - maybe less) so when we were collecting paper etc from Scotts house this book was in with the other paper. I asked the leader if I could keep the book and it has been mine since (so like 1981 or 82 if beavers goes to 7 right??) Stan and both Romitas were at a convention and all three said they had not seen this book before. It is a hardcover annual from England that I guess Scotts family had brought it back (I think this was one of his older brothers books) A live case of ones mans trash is another mans treasure!!! |
