catrick339 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) Here's the last of the Early Birds. Let's go out with a bang. Tales of Suspense 40, second Iron Man, last appearance of Tony in the original gray armor. By the story's end he's got it painted up all gleamy gold! Great 5 page Ditko backup story in this issue to boot. Flat, tight spine and CF, decent gloss, white pages. BUT! RH edge appears trimmed to me, upper edge is a little Marvel chippy. another chip out lower edge FC. And do you see that little scritchy scratch in the logo below the "U" in Suspense? That's an eighth inch round hole through the cover. You don't notice it much because the color on page 1 behind it matches nearly perfectly. A 3.5 trimmed copy sold in November for $340, let's undercut it a bit. An attractive, likely-trimmed copy for $300 SOLD!

catrick339 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) On that note, let's list a few comics! My Greatest Adventure 82 Third appearance of The Doom Patrol When I was a kid, this was the first comic I read about this group, just about concurrently with X-Men 1. Been in love with both groups ever since. Small dogear lower RH FC, minor general wear. Flat tight spine and CF, glossy, clean, white pages. Asking $50 SOLD!

catrick339 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 Dime Action Book nn, Minute Man These were Fawcett's answer to Big Little Books, and as far as I can tell they only ever produced four of them. This one looks great from the FC, but unfortunately the mouses have been at the lower half of the back spine. Sigh... Sharp copy, clean and square, brilliant colors, tight with offwhite pages. Both covers still firmly attached. Just the mouse chew to deal with. House ads inside the covers for Master and Minute Man comics, owner's name and addy in ink page 1. Asking $40, and I don't mind keeping this one. Robot Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catrick339 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) Wanted Comics 51 Holiday of Horror, junkie story inside. Red is faded upper half FC, splits upper and lower spine. That missing corner lower LH isn't actually missing, it's folded under the interior. Flat and clean, but a couple tiny chips out BC, small dust shadow upper edge RH BC. Tight, good gloss, offwhite pages, but I think the perimeter of the cover is starting to get a little brittle. Asking $35 SOLD!
