I just wanna say publicly, Robert, that you are one of the most pleasant sellers I’ve ever dealt with. I really appreciate your professionalism, your kindness, your attention to detail, and just your good human being-ness.

Polite enough to be a Canadian but not pervy enough imo.

Seen that chip on many copies of Nick Fury #1 (class of '68). A few were 9.4s, so I gradually assumed it to be a 'production' defect.

That sound about right to you?

As noted, the chart is about reviewers, not readers, and as a user of GoodReads, I'm not sure it is a good proxy.

Further, the chart shows percentages, not numbers; that is, it shows than among those reviewers of philosophy titles, 60% are male, and 40% are female. So it really doesn't tell us anything about the subject line of this thread (at most comic books were reviewed by men more heavily than anything besides philosophy), nor how many men or women read/reviewed a particular genre.

Captain Math, with an assist by The Pedantic Kid

In fact, not only is comics #2 on the list, TPBs ("graphic novels") are #4 !

The chart ranks reviewers, which ain't the same as readers, but still, good job all.

And check that out, it's been 15 minutes and the CGC Boards still didn't log me off yet.

Geez I blew it.

Got real busy at work and forgot to get my grades in. Sorry Mike.

If that's a full crease on back cover, top left, about 6", I'd guess you might pull a 6.0, but maybe a little less.

Incredible Hulk #5

Spine 85% split

Marvel Spotlight #10

Wear all corners front cover

One of the corners on the MS 10 looked good to me (only 3 worn - but should've stuck to my first guess and not rounded up to 8.5), and on the Hulk I underestimated how much was split (guessed 1.8).  Will take the 6 as ok, but will need some 3s and 4s to catch up.

Seems 4.0 to me.

That hardstock cover of 165 is pretty unforgiving on eye appeal.

Because of the interior water marks (staining) I can't get higher than 3.5, with small chance of 4.0 since the rest is nicer, and it has good eye appeal.

The ending on #1 was definitely a lot more memorable than the end of #3 (except the named the dog Indiana part) since who remembers the old knight in the cave.  ...

"He chose ... poorly."

Old knight guy was pretty memorable.

So does the kid reading Spiderman know that he's Peter Parker? I considered sending a letter to ask about that (back when I bought this comic) but got lazy or something and never did.

I'm game, thanks.

Love that TOS 79 cover!

TOS 79 kicks off a great 3-part fight that concludes in TTA, art by Colon. I like that little story, even though it's pretty typical 60s stuff (IM needs to recharge - Namor needs to recharge - Namor is pissed off at IM for chasing off Krang when Namor wanted to fight Krang himself, Namor a dumber hothead than Torch).

You might want to mark this thread CLOSED so the other one doesn't get disappeared (rule against having two current threads in same sub-forum).

Thanks, Joey.

Your convenience matters too - payment using the service is ok with me, if you prefer. Or, if you give pinkpanther's family a check, that's cool too, but please don't sweat over my eccentricities. Heh.  Just tell me you've paid it and your address and I'll get these out to you asap, and thanks again man.

Do you mean the "tip" they ask for? or you want it paid for another way? I can get a PP address and there is a cash app address or a check, but you lost me a little...and either way thanks for the listing!

Luke Cage Power Man 24 VG $10

I'll take this one please - but pending a look at the back cover of Powerman 24 (the back shown above doesn't look right, imo, but I could be wrong).
