I decided to turn a whole lot of magazines into a few this week. These were upgrades for me. 

 

I’m at work so can’t look it up but since you two are ultra high grade collectors are there any (many?) 1960s/1970s Warren mags that hit 9.9 or 10.0?

Of the entire Warren catalog, CGC currently shows only 2 10s and 18 9.9s.  Of the 18 9.9s, there are only 2 Vampirellas in 9.9- a 19 and an 85; 4 or 5 of the 9.9/10s are Eeries, 3 or 4 are Creepys and the rest are Famous Monsters and the misc. titles (Rook, Spirit, Warren Presents, etc.)

Wow. The amount of 10’s isn’t a surprise but that’s more 9.9’s than I would have guessed.

How did you get that information short of clicking on every issue in the census?

It's my absolutely favorite tool for looking at census data from CGC

http://cgcdata.com/cgc/

Just enter in Warren into publisher and search.  Scroll to the bottom and there's totals by grade (universal, sig, restored, etc.)

The site was put together by a boardie who's a star, IMO, @valiantman.  He's very good at data filtering and graphic analysis.

That's awesome. Is it updated regularly?

[Randall Dowling]

I think it's updated every few days.

You're the man, Greg!  I really appreciate what you put together and keep running!!  

Also, I highly recommend his blog.  If you're into analysis, it's got a bunch of cool charts looking at trends from different angles.

Not a single 9.8 or higher Blazing Combat. That would be amazing.

Kudos to you Randall for pointing it out and Valiantman for creating it.

I was going to be blown away at first thinking Randall was a stat master though...

[Stevemmg]

Oh yes, since I've been turned onto Greg's site, the regular census feels like horse and buggy era.  Soooo much better.  Ahhhhh.

Sorry! Not being ignorant, saw this just now, plus! I wouldn't have a n clue.  So I will leave it for Randall to answer for me.

 I love the Spirit Ad on the black Back cover.  Feels like a Black Light Poster

People ask me "How far does your magazine collecting go off the beaten track?".  Answer-

0 9.8’s of this one on the census. if you haven’t READ Dune it’s a must.

Sienkiewicz cover and interior in his glory years at Marvel. How can you go wrong?

No matter how much I try, I just can't like his work.  It's like I'm looking at one of those magic eye posters from the 90s.  Everyone is like "I can see it" and I'm like "what, what, I can't see it, is it a sailboat?".  

To say nothing of the vast number of ways his name can be pronounced (it's shin-kay-vitch, people!)
