Hi everyone! I work at a comic book store in Illinois, and I regularly price and label all of our comics. The owner recently brought me these, and I’ve tired every resource trying to find them. They’re really interesting looking, with the Marvel and DC superheroes on once cover. The title, translated, is “Superman Biography” and it appears to be published by “Long River Comics.” If any of you guys have info on what the book is, when it was published, or any data regarding value, anything would be much appreciated. Thanks! Joey

Alright, thanks for all the help! I looked through Comic Book Plus and was able to find the missing pages, which ended up being from Witchcraft 1’s “This Ship is Wrecked” and “Demon’s Bargain” story. Now all we’ve gotta figure out is what to do with it...

Over the Summer I've been helping out at an LCS (Bigfoot Comics) and several great golden age collections have came in (early Sub-Mariner comics, All Winners, early DC, etc.). This book just recently came in, a copy of Secret Diary of Eerie Adventures, a super rare book with a great cover. The seller let us know that it was missing 8 pages. I've come to the boards to see if you guys happen to know where I could find scans of the original pages just so I could pinpoint which pages are specifically missing (and maybe print out some facsimile pages). Also, if you happen to have a complete copy, we could probably figure things out . I've included images of the front and back cover (just because they're pretty cool) and an image of the pages I think could be the culprit. Thanks!

Alright, thanks for the advice. I contacted the seller of the covers and they ended up giving me a wealth of information pertaining to the subject, so I should hopefully be good.

Sorry if this topic has been discussed before, but I was unable to find any information on how one would go about actually attaching a repro cover to a coverless comic. I've had coverless copies of Incredible Hulk 2 and Silver Surfer 1 for awhile, and I decided to buy some reproduction covers for them since both books have pretty iconic covers. Do you guys happen to have any advice on actually attaching these books to the coverless copies? For the Hulk 2, I thought that I could remove the staples and attach the cover with the original staples. But, since the Silver Surfer 1 is a different format book, I couldn't think of any ideas other than gluing the cover straight to the spine, which I'd rather not do. Also, my coverless copy has some of the remaining cover on the spine (very miniscule portion), so I think that I may be able to incorporate that somehow with the reproduction cover. If you happen to have any advice or prior experience doing this, your help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Joey

Since there hasn’t been much interest in the comics, I’ve decided to bring down the price to $165.

Hey! Sorry for getting back to you so late. I’ve provided images so that you can determine grade for yourself. My grading skills are nil to none, so I’ve tried to provide as many images of the covers as possible. If you’d like additional images just message me.

Yeah, the light seemed to reflect off of them when I took the pictures straight on. But, I guess it does look kinda cool when you put all the pictures like that back to back... Stairway To X-Men it certainly is.

Here are the books being offered. Issues being sold are Uncanny X-Men 144, 146, 149-154, 156, 174, 198, 202-205, 208-209, 214-219, 223-224, 226, 228-232, 235-239, 247, 249, 251-254, & 281 in Fine to Near Mint condition. I am only looking to sell these books as a lot, and I am looking to sell the 43 issues for $175 $165.

I recently made a purchase consisting of a bunch of X-Men issues, so I decided I would try selling them here on the boards before taking them to eBay. If you would like to see my eBay feedback, here is the link. Below are the rules pertaining to this listing. Payment - All purchases will be made through PayPal goods and services with no exceptions. Shipping - FREE Buying - First in this thread wins the books, trumping all ongoing PMs Exclusions - Anyone on the “bad lists” is excluded from purchasing any books Returns - Returns are not accepted unless books are damaged in transit

Here’s some pictures of some of the books being offered. This is just a small amount compared to the hundreds we’ll be selling.

Hi! I’m fairly new to the boards, but wanted to let you guys know that I’m selling off a fairly large lot of comics for a friend who owns a comic shop in southern Illinois (Bigfoot Comics & Collectibles). This includes the 1st appearance of Dr. Strange as well as many other keys, slabbed and raw. Here is the link to both my eBay, smashingcomics, as well as his, johntchaffee. I’ll be listing a bunch of books over the next few weeks, so make sure to check them out. Also, if you are interested in any auctions, make sure to contact me through PM and we may be able to work something out. Thanks, Joey

I’m gonna leave this thread up for a few more days. Since there hasn’t been much activity, I can do 10% off all the books listed so far. Thanks!
