The CGC 8.0  on ComicLink is now at 170 000$!! I wonder how much the CVA attribute affects the final price compared to a CGC 8.0 without one?

The thing about the Ditko alternative cover is that it doesn't make Spiderman look spider-like.  There's just the tiniest thread of webbing.  The Kirby cover makes him look both powerful and spider-like.  With that said, I agree that Ditko was the right artist for the character and title - his rendition of action scenes was terrific.

If CVA endorses the CGC grade, does anyone endorse the CVA endorsement of the endorsed CGC grade?

Because it's not relentlessly annoying? :baiting:

I don't care how annoying it is it's what interest me. You guys keep talking about the book itself and I will continue to talk about current sales and auctions.

Well so much for self restraint - a few pages back you promised no more updates until the end of auction doh!

Love this version better. It depicts what is happening better and better suits an "introduction" comic. Better characterization and now we have a frontal "intro" shot of Spidey and the burglar. Ditko should have been rewarded the cover too. It should be all Ditko. (As much as I love Kirby, he had no business drawing the cover of AF15 although he did a fab job). We now see people...in windows, closer views of onlookers, and even a drive by curious vehicle.  And the Ditko Spidey...the face, webbing, shoes, the skinnier look...wow! Even the dude in the window looks like Peter Parker. :insane: We see more of the webbing Spidey is swinging from. Can't beat all this. So, where do we send our books to get the cover replaced?

So you drew this, aman? I guess I missed it in the other Boards. Simply amazing dude!

 

Thanx.  It was a lot of fun.  Just some photoshop collaging and a lot of cloning.  Oh no, not the Spidey Clone!!  Hardest part was avoiding all bright colors, and figuring out how to end the street that ditto started to describe... and what's in the background behind Spidey.  Ditko left it blank with nothing to work with.

Now at 180 000$!! It passes my estimate of 150 000$ to 175 000$.

I would hope Josh and Douglas at C-Link know the bidders. This has to be a pre-approved type auction.

Is the tiny crease that breaks color above the "z" in "Amazing" at top of book the beginnings of MC? (Speaking of 8.0 book currently being auctioned)

I don't think so. I think it is a color breaking crease, a thumbnail crease.  Without that flaw it may be an 8.5 .
