ThothAmon Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I should have bid more. Somehow I bet Rick got this, although a birdie told me he and Veronica broke up. http://comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAUCTIONS%2FPREVIEW.ASP%3Fcode%3D2019may%26session%3D1%23Item_1310099&id=1310099&itemType=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batman_fan Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I suspect the rumors of samurai bunny movie starring Tom Cruise May be effecting the price (granted I am the one starting the rumor) jason4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably makes this worth more than the $75 that I paid. ADAMANTIUM, toro and comicquant 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a heavily rounded corner, spine ticks and writing on the cover. It was gifted, I don't care how rare it is...

I made a pitch to him to help him get them graded in exchange for one of them. He politely declined. He is such a cool dude, but damn I wish I had been more persuasive that day . . . He's a great guy. Someone might approach him to see if he wants to do sig series file copies a la Dave Sim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously you're not aware of CGC's standards about certain writing practices... So, yeah, "agree to disagree"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Liebl Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Look I don't care what a guy wants to spend his money on but that aint no 9.6... I am sure that big crunch on the bottom is "in the art"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Nice HQ zoom. [/s] The corner makes it a 9.6 - and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey I didn't say it was a terrible book and I am sure it is quite rare. As for writing or date stamps I have my opinion and CGC has theirs, it doesn't mean I have to buy them of course I am knocking out maybe 60 percent of the older books when I make this demand. In this case I don't think writing the year on the book was done by the store, it was done by the buyer. Hey it could be worse, the 102k bid guy could be buying a boat!

It matches CGC's standards for a 9.6, though. That's my primary contention. And, yeah, that would be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to one of his interviews recently and Sakai stated that with two exceptions he hasn't sold ANY of his OA pages either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
