Fantastic Four #12. This is a keeper copy for the low to mid grade collector. The book presents like a 6.5-7.5 copy, interior pages are white as snow but the back cover is chooched because someone mucked around with it. Technical grade is probably 3.5-4.0 but it looks like a $1500 book. Crease bottom right is the only big flaw of note on the front cover. I have $450 in this book. I will start with $400 to start.

There were booths in Chicago where these sticker prices would have been double what I am asking for the Showcase #22 folks.

 

 

I just looked on eBay and there is NOT ONE copy of Showcase #22 for sale. Zip. Nada. Ghost town. Wow.

 

???

 

Yup. I bought the last one listed a few days ago. And I will say it was more than what you got listed for, though it was slabbed. Good prices Roy, Good luck!

I BOUGHT ONE LISTED today..it was up for 12 minutes...3.0 $450 or best offer..got it for $400 :acclaim:

Thanks dude. I just spoke to Louise and she remembers someone at the con telling me to price these WAY above what you got them for so you got a steal.

Kryptospidey, are you investing in these? That's what, three lower grade copies you have on hand now? :baiting:

4 now (thumbs u

 

Nice snags. You should make a nice return on these next year when the movie hype hits in full gear.

 

It should be a good year for movie panels at the SDCC next summer with Green Lantern, Thor, and Captain America due in 2011.

Price Drop $320

 

Keep in mind that all colors on these books are correct and whites are bright unless noted....the poor lighting throws the colors off.

 

First off is an Amazing Spider-man #42. I grade the book as a 9.2. Very solid and impressive looking, the book has very, very light wear along the outer edges and a tiny bindery chip at the top spine back cover. Spine is near flawless and wear is of the micro variety. Satisfaction guaranteed. Asking $350 shipped.
