I loved this Doctor Strange comic as a kid where he time travels and helps the FF out during the events of #19.  Years later I was able to finally read the original story.

Cool. I never knew of that DS comic. Now I want to read it.

It’s drawn beautifully by Marshal Rodgers.

Thanks. The consignor accepted my offer on the whole lot so it worked for both of us.

You said that so casually.

Got my extra FF 52s back. Really happy - the grades are all higher than my estimates.

Congrats.  Did you know about the restoration on the 5.0, or was that a surprise?

Surprise, but with FF 52s, that is always a concern. The nice thing it is on the lowest graded copy.

They've been sitting in a box for 25+ years. Paid less than $20 for each, so it's all good.

holy cow-- that must have cost you quite a bit-- some real gems in that group!

so jealous

[kimik]

It was a fair price for the LCS, consignor and I - we all had to give a bit to make the deal happen. 

The #3 and #4 are trashed, unfortunately - 3 has a lot of tape (the owner made a new tip out of tape where the piece is missing in the top right corner) and 4 has the spine reinforced in a couple of spots so it is restored/conserved (looks like it was a CC auction win or purchase based on the label on the bag). The rest of the books are nice mid grade copies for the most part. The copy of #50 does have a CGC 8.0 label in the back of the mylar, and is likely the best of bunch.

stoked about this upgrade; stoked, i tell you!

7.0 to market shortly.
