Serious question, is this the rarest of all Fiction House books?

Love this Zolnerowich cover! Well done!

Hey Jared,

I wouldn't say the rarest but definitely top 5 in my opinion @kelholt what do you think?

Rarest is a word with a variety of definitions to different people. I would definitely say it is the rarest Rangers book, and rare in any grade. Jumbo 31 is another rare FH book in any grade. *Controversy alert* Planet 15 is super tough, not as rare as the two aforementioned FH books but it has seemingly more street cred. It is more rare depending on your grade requirements. Many books from .5 to 3.5. I’ve had the ability to purchase/bid on 10-15 Planet 15’s in the last 10 years. Jumbo 31 maybe 5, Rangers 2 I have only seen 3 including one I sold  to Comiccav and the one Miami bought. Trust me, I look.

Also I think there are other tough/rare books in a few of the FH runs that are up there close to the three above, but I’m gonna keep those issue numbers and not show all my cards

Thanks for the insight Kelly. I think it is interesting that Jumbo 31, Planet 14, and Jungle 21 were all published in the same month and they are all very tough. Planet 15 and Rangers 2 published one month apart. Maybe this supports the idea that a few months there had very low print runs. (Fight 15 was right around that time as well, another tough one)

Just picked this up from a fellow boardie. Lowish grade but excellent colour and the worst of the defects are on the back. Love it.

Thank you fellow boardie, whoever you are.

Happy Thanksgiving fellow boardies 

Just picked a second copy of Rangers #6 😎😎😁😁

With 10 copies on the census, I'd say it's about as common as dirt.

Amazing copy btw

This one's rather elusive:

And when it comes to scarcity vs. cover coolness, this one's a keeper!
