“I picked a few of these sealed pacs up from a local collector. This lot is for all ten sealed packs. $625.00 sipped in the USA”. Sipped like fine wine, not gulped like a 40 ounce malt liquor.

price and pix?

XBox? Maybe one of the newer mutants? Turns into a cube.

I was hoping for Xemnu the Titan, but that’s too many letters. Plus he’s the original Hulk, and that starts with “H”.

4 letters, starts with X.

The Starlin looks fantastic!

Did you list a price yet?

I would also like one each of whatever remaining bumper stickers you have.

“I am curious”

Although I miss both my Batman 1 and Captain America 1, the ski boat I purchased has given my family so much joy. “No regerts”.

Makes the sole 9.2 copy of Detective 27 less desirable IMHO. The front cover of Batman 1 is iconic even to the non-collector. Furthermore, the pin-up back cover of Batman 1 is so much better than some ad. For the purpose of bragging rights, Wouldn’t you rather have the first issue of the Batman comic than the 27th of some other Comic?

Though a very inaccurate comparison, these are the "Mile High" equivalents for animation cels. Courvoisier was a gallery in SF which contracted with Disney early on. The backgrounds were often made of wood, and the mats were specially cut for each cel. Interestingly, the cels themselves were often cut to the figure, so there was "restoration" and "trimming" at the point of sale! There is always a WDP logo and most often a handwritten title on the mat. Recently, a company has revived the Courvoisier label and is offering modern reproductions. That company is out of Westlake Village CA.

Nothing a little tape can’t fix.

Cool books!

Does anyone else see Harvey Kurtzman’s influence in that top panel?

If it was not listed in the submission, it may not have been recorded in the assembly. Graders may even have noticed it, but there are some prepopulated sections (i.e. “pedigree”, etc).

Board member Wally’s Comics is an excellent graphics designer.

I see what you did there.

It is well known that “Stan Lee” was not the author’s given name. Theories abound as to the actual author of the greatest works in the English language. Some favor “the Oxford Man”, (Earl de Vere) who ghost-wrote for “Stan Lee”. Perhaps it was Christopher Marlowe. Personally, I favor Bacon. Having grown up during the depression in New York City to a blue collar tradesman family of non-substantive means, there’s no way Stanley Martin Shakspere-Lieber could have written such intricacies.

Nicely done.
