They email it to you when the book is shipped. circumstances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, did you read it before getting it graded? Did Cap win the election? And how many votes are in there in Dayton, Ohio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they've greatly improved them, which makes me think I might start doing it. comicquant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have been sending me a message. (The message being to submit higher priced books!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The image quality definitely used to be fairly poor. I’m happy with these and will likely have more scanned in the future. Sqeggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Kind of odd that this run was a quarterly from its start in 1942 through the end of 1945. Then, with the war over, it converted to bi-monthly through end of its run in 1949. You might think it would have been the other way around. porcupine48, Marty Mann and Larryw7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might think it would have been more popular then than it would have been after the war ended. But I forgot that DC might not have been able to issue it as a bi-monthly during the war because of rationing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
