  1. Nah, I have had it years. The only FF book I have tried to upgrade in recent years is FF 49 from a local auction house (lesson) never bid without seeing for yourself in hand, especially if its partially obscured
  2. Not sure the exact numbers of Frazetta without looking them up, I have never seen them in hand in years. This is what I have, my 283 is nice enough I suppose, I had it a long time. I was a Superboy fan so chased Adventure for the Superboy stories originally, I still need a few, the main Superboy title I need 11 issues, so I may have a realistic chance to complete that.
  3. Thats really nice and a pity about the top left, I think its a tough book in nice grade, I have upgraded this book a number of times and never been happy with what I got. I think this is my best copy but still not happy and will go again if I see another and the price is right. A couple of others that have stamps just to keep my post legit. All pretty scabby I guess, I just never come across a real nice copy in the UK
  4. I am short 17 issues from 149 - 523, the latest issue I need is #260, there was a reasonably priced one on here a few months ago but I dithered when I should have grabbed it, it can be pricey due to Aquaman origin I wont ever complete this and most DC titles, but c'mon you gotta try
  5. My first Fantastic four was #100 and the title was the 2nd Marvel I completed after Amazing Spiderman. Maybe 10 years or so ago, I pretty much completed all main Marvel titles up to late 90s when I stopped buying new books, apart from a few pre-hero, Western and the Millie the Model type books, I could just never find them. My first love was always DC though and my collection of DC is much larger than my Marvel and my DC collection is dwarfed by everything else. I collect all titles from all companies so will never be complete though and continue to upgrade anything if an opportunity rises. My none DC & Marvel books are boxed and not in any particular order (okay a mess) recently I searched through for Charltons and manage to put together 3 long boxes as I was sick of buying books I already have. I have never really collected British books since I was a kid, however I am feeling nostalgic lately and that will be what I look for in the next rummage. Its never the end, there is always something to collect
  6. Cant really argue against any of the above, but I have always loved these two.
  7. Love all those Star Treks Makes me want to dig mine out for a look as never seen them for years
  8. when I first seen Mike post here, I thought we were gonna get told off for all our Philip Kaying around
  9. I have to agree, even more so that a recent big budget movie has never been made, they seem to have revisited everything else. I have all the old serials on video and DVD somewhere, I have to find and watch them again at some point, they remind me of Saturday morning local cinema in the early 70s, there would be a monster movie like Gorgo, followed by Flash/Buck and a few cartoons. Great run of comics, its been good to see them altogether, I think I still need a few to match you
  10. Fawcett/Arnold. There was an Arnold copy on ebay a few months ago, the only copy I have ever seen. I wanted it so bad, but of course I forgot about it until the auction was over due to being ill. It went for about £30
  11. None of this ever bothers me, these were real nice books I hadnt seen before and seem perfectly at home, I post SA in GA all the time, no one complains much as we all love nice books
  12. Over here in the UK, I think they are both very tough, I only have maybe 6-10 of each and I buy them if I see them.
  13. What an anus He needs to be on a list, if he turns up again in a few years memories will have faded and nowhere to check.
  14. Just seeing them makes me wanna dig mine out and read them, they remind me of Christmas as a kid, I didnt usually get much as we were poor but I always got an Annual
  15. I always loved these Crime & Justice type books, there is always so much going on on the covers
  16. Hi Karen, I have always been interested in the Okajima pedigree (even though I only have 2 lowly books) the story has always been fascinating. I started to watch your video only planning on flicking through it due to the length, wow, the time really flew by and your style and emotion on the subject really came through the screen and I found myself hooked in after a few short minutes and I never wanted it to end. I do really think you are on to something and have advanced the story massively, thanks for all the hard work and study that most of us just cant be bothered to do
  17. Not sure if the researchers in this thread would have interest in this.
