Timeless icons

Not yet. I've only got a few issues at the moment. I'll likely pick up the TPB.

Thank you. That's cool. I may have to grab a reader copy at some point. I like the Halo books as well. All those videogame books like Mass Effect, God of War, Halo, Gears..etc.. I'd like to put a small collection of them together eventually. Do the trades have the variant covers inside as well for each issue?

Those are all good choices and I really like spotlight #9 too. As a kid, I really liked Ghost Rider # 1,2 and especially Ghost Rider #9 as that issue was crazy to me back then.

Thank you. It's a cool run for sure. Some of the gears covers are outstanding. Good luck with your sub on that 9 copy.

It was a nice book at a great price Lou. Happy to have picked it up.

Grabbed this one from Bob Storms this week.

Grabbed this last week from a great seller on the bay.

Grabbed this from Ebay yesterday. The book is much darker in hand but this scan (not mine) is washed out a bit.

Finally found a newsstand copy that wasn't priced at 10k

Don't think I posted the Justice league 37 9.6 but these 3 are the newest silver age books. Sold my St 126 not long ago but picked this one up which is equally nice.

Arrived today.

I was hoping for a better outcome. Keeping Miller? THAT'S who they decide to keep? Please tell me this is just a damage control option until the movie is out of theaters.

Love dark backgrounds on books. Seems to highlight the artwork on cover.

Perhaps the tables have turned with the exit of a Paypal only option that once was? I've slowed down on Ebay drastically when certain changes were made and I dont sell on there anymore but I still buy a lot. Ive also been on Ebay since the 90's and while Ive had a very small amount of issues with sellers, that is likely attributed to buying from familiar sellers and in my personal opinion, staying away from what seems like risky purchases. So the general outlook in more recent times is that the buyer is now potected far more than in past times? Is this due to them handling the transaction side of things? I really hate passing books up that id like to buy because I want to avoid losing something like a 10k purchase because they side with the seller in the event he sends me a piece of a 2x4 instead of a book.

Love how the Inhumans are standing on top of the cliff with the moon behind them in the night sky.

Glad you've had success. I also know of a few people that had bought big ticket items and were burned. Everyone has their opinion. I buy from Ebay as well but when it comes to big ticket items and Im not familiar with them, I simply dont buy it. How often do we see fake listings on Ebay with some seller jacking someone's scan? So I'm wrong?

Reputable dealers on ebay are an exception. I should have added that the scenario usually applies to sellers that are virtually unknown and are trying to sell big books with little feedback. Also, there are several dealers on ebay that have tons of positive feedback that are constantly being called out for their selling methods. This doesn't apply to everyone of course.

Seriously? That thing is sick.

Understandable that you view it as a detractor. First, you're finding out that $70 is waaaaaay off the fair market value of what it actually is but at the same time, you're seeing a price hike from that last sale. A few things to consider. As it's been pointed out, it's a tough book with all things considered. The second thing is, GPA (gpanalysis) is a great tool to assist in figuring out a real fair market value but it doesn't track certain sites that are known for selling the same books at higher prices than say...Ebay. A good example of this would be Comiclink.com. Many of the keys you see today are constantly hitting higher prices than the GPA lists simply because Comiclink.com and other similar sites don't report to GPA (though many do). Reasoning for this is because if you're buying a book for lets say, 10k...would you rather trust a website that's been in existence for several decades or some guy you've never met on Ebay that you have to trust with your big purchase? Many buyers prefer to buy from reputable sites for said purchases and will spend more for peace of mind. It isn't uncommon for a book to sell for a certain price and then a few months later, that exact same copy resurfaces to shatter the record sale it had only a few months ago. (see action comics 1 cgc 6.0 rocket copy for an example, though this is an extreme example) Books that are plentiful in all grades are one thing but the rarer higher grade stuff out there that's hard to obtain usually follow this same scenario. I agree with the above statements though. Not a fan of trimming of any kind but if you're not looking to spend thousands more or you have the patience to hold out for a similar copy without restoration, maybe an offer somewhere in between the last listed price and their asking price is a good place to start. Good luck if you do decide to make an offer though. It's a cool book to be sure.

Better Business Bureau perhaps?

in 2021, Comiclink sold a 9.8 for 73,000.00.

hey all Looking into the most reputable comic insurance companies out there. Does anyone have an instance where they had to make a claim and how well did that work out? Thanks in advance.

Count me in. Picked this one up in 2021 on Comiclink. Still have yet to pick up an Avengers 4 though.

Please let this happen.

Wow...I was not aware of that. It really is a great sketch. Thanks for sharing that. Skaar 1 (one of the 2nd print variants) has the exact pic of the old Ed Norton Hulk on it as well. Very surprised they used that pic for a cover. Not the same instance but definitely reminds me of that.
