A new one, reminds me of my wife. Absolutely stunning.

Added to your stack, and thank you!

However except this point its a beautiful copy on overall, nice catch I always loved this cover too

I do. I have most of them through 2015, but you'd need to order more than one as my min rolled order is $100 and most of the comics titles are 40-60 do you have a list of interest?

Unexpected 24 VG- $17.50

Defenders 9 NM $75

I wanted to work with this image since Eric showed his copy a little while back, thought I was getting slightly higher grade, but she'll do, captivating:

Tales of the Unexpected 18 VG- $17.50 SOLD

Cool to see this one - It is my only 1 of 1 9.8 book!

Aquaman 12 hit my mail box early in September shortly after our return from Toronto. I was a bit miffed with it arriving folded in half down the middle though. I also clearly remember acquiring these comics off newsstands by mid-September: I remember buying the #9 at the Canadian National Institute for the Blind newsstand at the Covent Garden Market building in downtown London and trekking home with it. The excitement at my house otherwise that day was the selecting of a dress for my sister's prom. This Flash cover absolutely knocked me out when I first saw it on the bottom of the magazine stand at Les' Variety. Both the composition by legendary artist Carmine Infantino and the colours are fabulous. I didn't realize it at the time but Heat Wave would be the final villain to be inducted in what soon became known as the Flash's Rogues Gallery: I also remember seeing this comic for the first time on the magazine stand at Les' Variety shortly thereafter. It was another in the series of wildly colourful eye-catching Justice League covers. Only as an adult though did I notice that Mike Sekowsky habitually drew Wonder Woman with a huge and not at all athletic looking butt. Green Lantern, wow! Finally! And such a gorgeous cover by Gil Kane and Murphy Anderson. It remains one of my favourie comic covers of all time. Wow! The two members of the Justice League of America who sadly did not have their own title featured teaming up on the cover of a comic. I was feverish with excitement! Mike M. from down the street had been pressing me to collect Dinky Toys with him but I knew my quarters and dimes would have to be reserved for more DC superhero comics. I first saw Wonder Woman 142 downtown at the News Depot which together with Ken's Variety was one of my go-to places for Krun-Chee Potato Chips which frequently had great coin premiuks free inside. But Wonder Tot?! What in hell was editor/writer Robert Kanigher thinking to introduce and then repeatedly feature such an execrable character? Kanigher must have been a soft-headed new father. Plus a few more I clearly remember buying: Well that was it, game, set and match! By this time I was well and truly hooked on DC superhero comics. And now here I am today, still a huge comic fan!

Honestly, beats me too! But I do think it’s restored by virtue of no salesmanship for the book. That would not be possible if it was a HG unrestored copy in that apparent condition. We’d be getting a torrent of Metro pumping. As would any auction house.

I was hoping you'd create this version...

Complete Love 1951 VG $30 (Ace painted cover)

Take these 4 Vampirellas mid to low grade (The frazetta cover is missing a piece in the lower bottom right) $30

Here are scans of three more of my Fox and the Crow comics: Despite being forced off the cover of their own title, the majority of the stories in the comics above were "Fox and the Crow" stories. Stanley and His Monster though were steadily commanding more of the pages.

Hulk 113 F/VF $15.00

quit trying to French it up , dirt.

I feel like Joe Dirt watching nobody snag this- “but that’s a killer deal!”

Green Lantern 89 F/VF $15.00 Adams cover

I really haven't been buying for a couple of years (a few cheapies at some shops) but I still want a Catwoman 51, I lack interest in a lot of other stuff, although, honestly, I think 56 is a great cover too except the hand holding the spoon just feels slightly off

Great thread! I should have read this one a long time ago and kept up with it. You mentioned the auctions though I mainly sell slabs, I completely gave up on auctions through my eBay store because I got to the point where the winning bidders would never pay and I would have to start over again. I probably blocked around 20 before I said no more auctions LOL. On course with the recent conversation here, I probably keep 10 to 15 items up on average. Sometimes more depending what's hot in the modern slab world. This average I would say is fine for me since it's a side hobby to pay for my own collection likes and getting my return on purchased books. Lately, it has been anywhere from two to four sold in a week the last six weeks or so. Plus, some side sales off those purchases. Since I built up a decent watcher/follow base for my purposes, I always send coupons when someone buys from me, and the repeat buyers are usually very easy to deal with. I normally give them a small discount and throw a few extra comics in, which keeps them coming back for more and feeds the top-rated designation. Some have even asked me about specific books and I'll get them slabbed, having guaranteed a sale when they get back from CGC. Last year I was just under the threshold we're still lucky to be under - maybe?. I haven't really put too much up yet this year, but that could change. I'm still just a little under 5K so far. My link is in my profile here, though I have always preferred to sell here on the boards when I have put up a few runs.

VERY sharp copy!!!

Daredevil 19 VG+ Likely better (Backcover damage) $15

Killer Surfer cover to killer Surfer cover.
