Totally agree.   And nothing wrong with Restored books (at least when you know you are getting one).   Jon Berk didn't think so, either.  Happy to own one of his and one of my absolute favorites in my Planet collection.  Lou Fine hitting it out of the park as usual. 

I was very fortunate to finish my run and had help from a number of folks here on some tough issues including Karl, Jared, and Rick.  Thanks!

Guess who sold you that one?  

[Ricksneatstuff]

I’ve had several #1’s, including one really great one that a boardie friend still has. This is my current lowly but acceptable copy. A pretty nice presenting 2.0 Universal now.

Also, while I am at it, I should give Susan Cicconi some kudos.  This is what it looked like before she did a very painstaking press and dry clean.  
 

It really brought the colors out and the spine correction greatly improved the presentation.

I picked this up from Jason when he was selling off his rivets.  I absolutely love this book. Not sure why Planet 1 doesn't get more love, as it's an all-time classic IMHO.

OK, so I didn't know how to post pictures when you guys first started running through the Planet list.  Here is my Planet 2.  This is another of my favorite books.  It was also the first high grade Planet that I purchased and cemented my decision to try to collect the entire run.  Only that pesky 15 remains.

Here is a little nice Planet I recently picked up from a good friend.  
I like Planet Comics quite a bit I must say

Now @Tim Weaver and @Ricksneatstuff are busting out some big guns!

Been traveling and such so I missed a bunch of issues.  Some of my highlights, though some have already been posted.

My favorite cover of the title.

Stunning stuff from everyone!  Great looking back at those books, Cheetah.  I know you sold off your collection but I can't recall, did you keep any issue or issues that you just couldn't part with?

Here's an honorary Planet I wish I hadn't sold.

I sold them all.  If I kept a few I would have kept them all.    I finally sold the last of my jungles and jumbos about a year and a half ago.

wanted to share this in case you guys dont check my completed run thread.

Just got this back from CGC and I am thrilled!

9.4 white pages double cover!

The ink got printed offset on the cover as well, making it a rather unique book.

I love that cover, and was very excited to find it as an actual Planet!

Australian #15. It is the only copy I have ever seen, and I sent it to be graded.
