Who is ready to get this show started? 

First up is a real rare one with only 7 copies on the census! One of my favorite precode horror titles. Some staple pull at the top, but cover and centerfold are both securely attached.

12 month GPA is close to $900 in 4.5 with a last sale of $1435 :o  A 6.0 also went on Clink for $1901 recently. I listed a VG- copy for $500 on the boards last month that sold instantly. I had a feeling it may have been underpriced, but my loss was takebot's gain. I'm probably underpricing this copy as well, especially because it looks just as nice (if not nicer) than the CGC 4.5 copy that sold, but maybe I will learn my lesson if I can ever find a third copy of this diamond in the rough.

Adventures into Darkness 11 VG+

$849

Anyone interested in some Fawcett goodness? How about this fantastic Bernard Bailey demon cover! Love the look of sheer terror on good ol' checker pants. Only 10 universal issues exist on the census and a CGC 7.0 copy sold for $1300 just last year. Note the partial date stamp on back cover.

Last one for now is a beauty of an L.B. Cole cover. I heard through the grapevine that precode war books are the next precode horror books...well if they are, this book should be one of the most sought after in my opinion. The reds really pop on this issue in hand, and with only 12 issues currently on the census, there might not be enough copies to go around once the general public catches on!

Okay I lied. Here is one more: a classic Ross Andru cover with some great Toth and Nick Cardy interior art. Only 11 copies of this book exist on the census so you know it's rare, especially in mid/high grade. Last CGC 4.5 copy sold for $850 and mycomicshop is asking for $1k+ for their copy making this a screaming deal! This book was manufactured without a top staple, but everything is still securely attached to the bottom one.

It's Friday night, so you all know what that means...it's date night! And what better date to have than one with danger? Absolutely love the colors on this book, and with only 8 copies on the census, not one you see too often.

About to hit the road, but before I do, here's a fun cover of one of my favorite issues in the series. This book has been getting so hot these snowmen might just melt! Book looks like a 6.0+ copy in hand, but is graded lower due to a detached centerfold (comic was only manufactured with one staple). As such, an amazing deal on a really nice presenting copy!

Strange Adventures 79 VG/FN

Jeebus - this one won't last long.  I'm surprised it is still here.  If I wasn't already doing time payments, I would definitely make it mine!

Let's get the party started again with some ghoulish covers. First up is a copy of Strange Mysteries 16. Just look at the purples on this cover. The headlights ain't bad either! Only 10 universal copies currently on the census and no recorded GPA sales. I wouldn't be too upset if this one didn't sell.

Next up is a classic witch cover. Currently 20 copies on the census with a 6.0 recently selling for just north of $1700 on Clink :insane: This one looks great in hand! Has a 1.75 inch spine split in the middle and a little rust on the top staple, but otherwise a great mid-grade copy!
