  1. Past hour
  2. I own HC origins 1 till 13 and only #10 has got a different hardcover size I was storing and checking my inventory. I also own a couple of deluxe ones signed and numbered but that's another series and also much bigger. I'm just asking because I thought it was kinda strange it's different. Thanks for the reply 😀
  3. Lol. OK, well all you're showing us is a very thin piece of paper slipped through... which as others have said is normal. It's one thing to slide in a single piece of paper and an entirely different thing to slide in or out a 1/4" thick book in an inner well. So, go ahead and slide the book half way out and take a pic of that if as you say the comic will slide out if picked up by the top two corners. BTW, I'm in the camp that this slab doesn't look tampered with and everything you've taken pictures of to show that it is, is normal. Like the label being on the outside... ummm... they were ALL on the outside at that point in CGC's life.
  4. I have pretty much all of the DC archives and other high quality GA era comic and newspaper strip offerings. So far, the best collections have come from the original publishers or with their cooperation (EC, Barks Library, Spirit Archives, DC Archives, Prince Valiant, Terry, Rip Kirby, LoAC, etc). The alternative is low quality scanned stuff like the PS scanned offerings, which sometimes are duplicating (and undercutting the market for) higher quality offerings. But Archives are not really what's at issue here. It's the characters and new media offerings. On that point, I do agree that there's lots of room for creativity when it comes to the lesser characters that have dropped off their rights owner's map. But here's the thing, Tarzan (1912) has been in the public domain for a long time. The expiration of the copyright in 2007 has not led to a plethora of high quality (or even low quality) Tarzan material. Not sure who is going to take up the flag of DC back-up features. In any event, we are going to have a good idea how this goes long before we get to Superman and Batman. Next up are Buck Rogers and Popeye (created 1929 and both former movie properties). Other upcoming former adventure/hero media properties that will expire before Superman include: The Shadow (1930), Dick Tracy (1931), Conan (1932), Lone Ranger (1933), Doc Savage (1933), Flash Gordon (1934), Green Hornet (1936), Phantom (1936), and Prince Valiant (1937).

  6. A small lot today, which in one fell swoop gets me the three trickiest D-Series Western doubles, as far as I know... is anybody aware of any others that are particularly pricey? For those who don't know, Jim Mayo is a pseudonym of Louis L'Amour, so these are first editions of three early books by him:
