  1. True and why I have graded very few comics but sending in a lot of pulps. Although I can still enjoy them in a Mylar. I just figure before prices go through the roof, I can still afford the grading costs. Yes, I am primarily a cover collector. But, I too have read many pulps. Spider and the horror ones have some real wild stories. I also like Bradbury and a few other writers. The hobby has become too “cover centric”. Thus prices on the classic ones have risen so high. Same with “wall gazers” at cons. Folks are to lazy to dig boxes and discover books for their actual content…
