KCOComics Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Hello This is my first attempt at selling so bare with me. And when I say first attempt, I mean after 20+ years of buying I'm selling for the first time. I've decieded to try to buy a big grail and I'd like to offset some of those costs with books I have multiples of. I don't have GPA so if I'm way out of line, shoot me a pm. Offers are welcome. Rules No one on any bad guy lists. "I take it" in thread trumps PMs. Payment: PayPal, Checks and MO ok. Shipping: $10 for US. Will combine for multiple books. $15 outside the US. Returns: 7 days from when it arrives. FF48 - $350 - sold. ASM silver age lot - $250 Daredevil #4 - $75 - sold Pictures of details coming.

KCOComics Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 Fantastic Four 48 - let's call it a 2.5 I love this comic because it was clearly well loved and well read. The creases on the cover are the big issues, but it has great color. $350 - offers welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCOComics Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 The highlight of the lot is the spiderman 101. Let's call it a 3.5. The comic has great colors. It presents really well for the grade. The big issue is the top staple. It's popped. I said in the PGM thread that it wasn't popped, because the cover is attached firmly and doesn't show any give when you open it. But I don't want anyone to feel I'm misleading them because that staple is an issue. ASM 52 - G- ASM 53 G / VG ASM 54 G/VG ASM 56 VG - always one of my favorite SA spidey covers.

KCOComics Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) DD 4 - 3.5 first purple man. $75. SOLD I bought this book from heritage like 17 years ago when they use to send those huge catalogs out. After shipping and everything I think I spent $50 so it hasn't appreciated the way others have. In my opinion this is an under appreciated book. Edited February 16, 2020 by KCOComics Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, now I'm in an awkward spot. If I fix it, people won't understand your reference and the humor will be lost. If I keep it I will be exposed for my mediocre grasp of the English language.

In my opinion this is an under appreciated book. It’s underappreciated for sure: in my opinion Killgrave is the finest Daredevil villain among the earlier issues. The further adventures where he appears are underappreciated as well. Great grab Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The background you all give on some of these books and the characters makes reading them so much better! If one thinks about his powers, and also about Mr. Fear's powers, you can easily see how intriguing these two villains are as Daredevil's foes. Not that the Owl or the original Gladiator are not, so to speak, but Mr. Fear and Killgrave have been underappreciated for sure. «The Purple Man's body produces chemical pheromones which, when inhaled or absorbed through the skin, allow Killgrave to control others' actions, as long as he is physically present. These abilities can overwhelm most, but sufficiently strong-willed people, such as Doctor Doom and Kingpin, have been able to resist its influence, and Daredevil has been able to resist Killgrave as the powers rely on full sensory manipulation, Daredevil's blindness hindering the amount of input he receives and making it easier for him to resist what he picks up.» (from Wikipedia) Edited February 18, 2020 by vaillant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, you have the DD yellow suit that's awesome! And then you have this really sophisticated villain that has always been under appreciated in my mind. It's a great comic to have. Happy to pass it along to another collector. vaillant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not collect Daredevil, but this has been among the first issues I decided to have (I had strong memories of buying it in italian as a teenager in the 1980s and was impressed by the unusual story). Also #6 (first Mr. Fear) and the first Gladiator. I have a coverless #3 for the Owl. BTW, in italian they decided to go full red since the beginning, and this was the result (DD #4 also among the few I kept in italian edition): Edited February 18, 2020 by vaillant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_Man_Adam Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Although Daredevils early villains were all a force to be reckoned with in their own way , Kilgrave was always my favorite of the early batch early ( honorable mention to Gladiator) The Owl was more of a B level Kingpin who flew around like the vulture with wolverines claws ( what ?) to me . Kilgrave was portrayed very well on Jessica Jones IMO. I’ve always preferred the latter Daredevil foes from the Frank Miller ‘ ish era ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilgrave was portrayed very well on Jessica Jones IMO. I’ve always preferred the latter Daredevil foes from the Frank Miller ‘ ish era ... Spot on about the Owl, especially his character. My opinion is that Miller, however, twisted Daredevil too much. And he did not get at all the character of the Gladiator, which he turned into something other. I never liked his acclaimed Daredevil much, I have partially read it as an adult but did not enjoy. Even if it was quite a departure as well, I preferred Ann Nocenti's tenure, at least to some point. Kingpin is sordid, you’d never have figured him betraying Vanessa, but with Typhoid Mary, Nocenti managed to make this work. P.S. Apologies for the thread derailment, KCOComics!

Old_Man_Adam Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Ill concur Miller has his dark styles which At times can be a bit much ... but the Hand / Elektra arc was arguably one of the best ! KCOComics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
