Getoutandstayout Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 A couple of suggestions. FF #48 or a high grade #49. Avengers #4 (always a solid choice) GS X-Men #1 (get ready - it's gonna explode) Spider-Man #4 (a key; 1st Sandman and a very early Spider-Man, always an excellent choice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you buy a GSX1, often you will buy the 94 to complement it. If you can't afford GSX1, you can buy 94. Lastly, its the first Chris Claremont X-men story beginning his legendary run. It's like getting an Amazing Spider-Man #1 if you can't have Amazing Fantasy #15. And the first new X-Men in the regular title is definitely a key, even if it's not their 1st appearance. And with the new X-Men inevitably coming to the MCU, and with a new generation of superhero lovers wanting to get their first appearances, the price is going to keep going up and up.

Absolutely, I buy every x94 I can find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a mid-grade X-Men 94 at a used bookstore last year for $200, and since I had sold mine long ago, I snapped it up. It's maybe a 6.0-7.0, and I'm mighty glad I have it in my collection again. It sits next to my 4.5 GS X-Men #1 that I picked up last year for $850. :>)) Edited August 3, 2020 by Getoutandstayout WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NP_Gresham Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 $1200 is not enough in my estimation. Keep saving and go for a REALLY big book, AF #15 or Hulk #1 or something silver. Bronze I would consider Marvel Spotlight #5 in 9.8, just so damn rare- it will always be in demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree on the AF 15. I am so glad I got my copy when I did and could afford. I collect mainly GA now but AF 15 has always been the book I would suggest if someone can afford it. I cannot believe incomplete .5 are going for $7K. I have been out of BA for so long now, I have no idea what $1,200 could get on a higher demand book.

I did exactly this and have been kicking myself ever since as I watched AF 15 get more and more out of reach... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
