Picked these up over time. Just grabbed this really nice 9.4 wp last week as well. As everyone knows... books of this era were often poorly wrapped. I thought these were nice enough and I also held off to grab white page copies.

Okay, I'll play.  It's not very often this thread "Astonishing Tales Club" is active with participants. 

My graded copies of Astonishing Tales #12 (1st comic book appearance of Man-Thing).

That is 28 percent of all the 9.4s on the census!  ^^

This was a bizzare reprint choice in the midst of the Deathlok run.  The dreaded "Deadline Doom", but still...

It was bizarre at the time, but Marvel was getting ready to feature the Guardians in a multi-part adventure in the Defenders book. Stan probably felt it was a good time to throw out the 1st appearance when he had a deadline problem.

Never made the connection with the Defenders #27-#29 until now. Makes sense. :foryou: Paul
