Thoughts on this:
a) Funny that he missed RnR comics, but Uncensored Mouse was a great call. That book got national media attention and was, IIRC, a $20 book almost instantly (which would be like a $100 book by today's standards). 
b) Gotta like his unabashed cynicism towards some of these books. He's not just a cheerleader trying to get you to buy in on everything (considering he is the vendor, not just an online blogger looking for attention). N-Man, Lex Luthor Bio, Hawk & Dove, he's really down on these and openly critical. Odd to hear his thoughts on Innovation, but they definitely turned out some high-quality stuff in the early-90's, so maybe they were still evolving.
c) Death in the Fam selling at $110 a set. Think it's around that now for a NM set, maybe even a little lower. I sold my original copies for about $60 along with the TPB back about mid-2000's and I was happy as a clam. Wish I'd kept them, but there was a time when that arc seemed dead in the water, so I took the money and ran.
d) I got in on that Fist of the North Star when it came out. American Ent. billed it as an ultra-violent, super-graphic series so I was all over it. And I hated it.

Love him or hate him (and I think that everyone hates him lol) he supports the hobby, by supporting his business. No harm in doing that unless you're scamming others. Well it's kind of a sensitive topic I suppose.. but as chuck illustrated, there were many who did just that by sitting on near complete inventories and hiking prices till they cashed out. That is a trade which goes on till this very day by the pump n dump blog warriors. 

Yes uncensored mouse was a big deal. To borrow from your analogy, if that happened today, the after market prices would've been insane. The presentation of this book contributed a lot to the buzz; a sealed book with a black cover about an American cultural phenomenon.. so taboo! Great call indeed. 

A bit surprising about his Innovation write up as I didnt recall hearing about them until then. The 1st two titles I remember seeing from them were Stargazers & and a fantasy title by the name Group Larue. Those were the two solicitations from them that month. I picked legends of the stargazers of course but not because of chuck. Mainly because of that Hughes cover. I was big into Frazetta inspired artists back then and Stevens & Schultz weren't enough for me  that cover really got me into his stuff and I became a fan since (I think he only did maze agency & death hawk prior to that)

I still have all the books I bought from chuck. They're all located in a separate section of my collection 

I think I bought only one copy of Fist of North Star because I was already burnt from all the manga/martial arts/Asian books that came prior to that (remember Jademan comics which came out earlier that year? I bought ALL the #1 issues on those titles ??). Btw the Master Editions of Northstar which came out in early '00 are very rare and going for crazy prices. Particularly volume 6 & 8 are $150 books if you can find them
