Popular Post Raze Posted April 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 8, 2019 I don't normally buy a comic for the cover alone...but i love this cover from Russ Heath and the gloss is great but the cover is detached but who cares! Throwing knife to the back to stop TNT whats not to love?!.......Besides the cover being detached! comicquant, october, badback83 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of like a Christmas present any time you want one! All of these were slabbed at one time or another... That group shot is beautiful. It sounds weird maybe, but I like the "mystery" of ungraded issues. Buying something, flipping through the pages, wondering about the grade, admiring the colors and gloss without obstruction...and being able to read it obviously. Once things are slabbed they lose some of their mystique and almost become commodities for me. I'm much more likely to sell something I own if I slab it first. Or maybe I am just nuts.

I will add the tangible feeling of holding and shifting through them. Also they retain their "mystery" while stacked in our boxes. You have to search the box to find the right one, and along the way you're seeing a bunch of other books too... unlike slabs which have labels on the top edge, making rifling through the box unnecessary. october 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Black Bat Posted April 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) Arrived today from Heritage. I never really paid much attention to this cover until I saw it in this auction. The color scheme is unique. The weird stiff brutish way the screaming man is drawn, death sprinting after him in that fantastic red cape and the corpses laying on the mountainside. Definitely glad I shelled out the cash. Now I need to find a digitized copy so I can read it!

Popular Post colossus is awesome! Posted April 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2019 Here’s my entry level copy of Venus 19 I was finally able to pick up.

I still have many "entry" level books bought over the last 30 years that I am so glad I grabbed, because the better condition copies have always been beyond my reach.
