MrBedrock's Thread of Bombast - chock full of Hyperbole, Exaggeration, and the greatest funnybooks ever offered on the boards! 6 6

Heroic Comics #17 - fine very fine (7.0) cr/ow - $150

I truly think these mid number Heroics are overlooked gems. While they have started going the biographic hero route with two or three four-page true life stories, each issue through #29 was still crammed with a full line-up of original superheroes - Hydroman, Man O'Metal, Music Master and Rainbow Boy.

Rocket Kelly #5 - very fine minus (7.5) ow/white - $NA

A space ship with a rope ladder.

Hollywood Diary #3 - very fine near mint (9.0) ow - $275 SOLD!

Deslabbed and now raw, the CGC label is included. As this was the only copy on the census it was simultaneously the highest and lowest graded copy. Now there are none and the new owner can gloat about purchasing a true rarity for under $300.

The Kellys #25 - very fine near mint (9.0) white - $NA

Would far and away be highest graded if graded, but it isn't graded so it isn't yet the highest graded. But if it were...

Due to the overwhelming and historic response to this sales thread I will be holding off listing any more items. Obviously I have drastically undervalued the material listed to date. I will allow those books already posted to remain available through tomorrow evening at 6:00pm. Thank you all for you time!

Sparkie #2 - very fine minus (7.5) cr/ow - $225

Is this the first time that a high grade copy of Sparkie, America's Favorite Radio Pixie, has ever been offered for sale? There are no reported sales on GPA. If graded this would definitely top the census as only one other copy has been submitted, a 7.0. So good that I have included a back cover scan...

 

 

Not too many date stamps like that.

Pfft. You've never seen my sales threads. 

Assuming sell out means zero sales.
