Please let the grading gods be with me on this one....
Its that time again. I will be sending 5 raw books out to be graded. I have a box of about 30 EC comics that I have accumulated that need to be graded. The last run didnt go as well as I wanted so Im hoping for better luck this time.
Usually I send a book in thinking its a 7.0 and I get a 5.0 back....so this time i am not going to have high expectations. Ive learned I only get bummed once the verdict is read. So to spare myself the the u
Some slightly new ECs to add to collection...
Got these a little bit ago....dont mind the glare on the photos.

thats a bit of a disappo
My first key Marvel purchase....
I do not usually collect silver age or bronze age marvel or key issues...but recently I figured there may be an investment quality to buying some of these. They seem fairly popular and sought after. So I was looking to get a Hulk 181. Ive always loved Hulk and who doesnt like Wolverine? right?

What is this?
If it looks like a duck and acts like a duck isnt it usually a duck? I recently sent is a Crime Suspenstories #8 that had many qualitys of a 8.0 to 8.5 grade. Sharp corners.
