Game time. There was Concentration but this is called Registration. Of the 16 below, which Torch face would you say is the clearest? The winner gets the No-Prize of course. Want a hint? Sorry, no can do! OK ok how about "white pinpoints." I'm losing it folks

I agree.  Book has been in a death spiral for decades... I think final price will disappoint its fans.. 

So not to be Debbie Downer, but is MC 1 the most common GA mega-key in ultra-high grade?

There are 2 9.0s, now this 9.4 and still out in the wild is the Church copy, which by reputation would be a 9.4 at a minimum and probably much higher.

Interesting. Is there a chance that this 9.4 was once one of the 9.0s? Or is it genuinely new to market?

I guess there is no census distinguishing between the October and November?  How much more would this bring if it were an October copy?

I think I remember @G.A.tor saying a 6.0 may the highest October?  Nic Cage's is a 5.0?

It seems to me that the October and November copies should be listed on the census separately. 90k print run to a 900k print run ( if memory serves )

I find it funny how 4 high grade copies make it the most common  comic book key! In coins, 100,000 existing coins of an issue date is considered rare! We really don't know what rare is, do we?

Agreed - they are two separate and distinct issues of the same book.

An October copy SHOULD sell for a huge premium.

If there were an October and November Marvel 1 - both identically graded and identical in appearance, the October version should bring the premium all day long.  The exception possibly being the Jacquet Pay Copy.
