TheBigJ Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Hello, Before I post and request adding/removing books from a particular set (specifically Avengers 92-100) in the correct thread, I have some questions about the set as it stands now, please. The set has Avengers 92-200 along with Avengers Annuals 1-3. I am currently trying to build my own set and have a question. My question is why the early Annuals and no Giant Size? GCD has dates for 92 as 9/71 and 200 as 10/80. If this is a/the "boundry" and Annual/Giant Size have dates of Annual 1 -9/67 Annual 2 - 9/68 Annual 3 - 9/69 Annual 4 - 1/71 Annual 5 - 1/72 Giant Size 1 - 8/74 Giant Size 2 - 11/74 - Continuing story from avengers 129 Giant Size 3 - 2/75 - Continuing story from avengers 132 Giant Size 4 - 6/75 - Continuing story from avengers 135 Giant Size 5 - 12/75 - Reprint Avengers Annual 1 Annual 6 - 11/76 - Continued between 153 and 154 Annual 7 - 1977 Annual 8 - 1978 - Continued between 178 and 179 Annual 9 - 1979 - Continued between 188 and 189 With all of that, I would think set Avengers 92-200 would also include Annual 5(although it's a re-print), Giant Size 1-5, and Annuals 6-9 I won't even get started with cross-over non-Avengers books during this period.(DD #99, Defenders #9 and #10, FF #150, etc.) as I have noticed other set's include these cross-over books. Don't mean to be a pain is the @#!%, just curious as to why this is. Thank you very much. Regards Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Hello @TheBigJ, The CGC registry has been in play for quite some time and has loose guidelines which I hope to firm up a bit. Ideally, the Avengers #92-200 set would include only the actual issues and not the Giant-Size or Annuals but these are usually grandfathered in. The crossover books will not be included in a "numbered" set like Avengers #92-200 as they are not titled the same. The crossovers would appear in Master sets, appearance sets, etc only. You may make a request in the appropriate thread to add books to the Avengers sets if you choose to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
