I think all the people repeatedly crying about not getting a custom title should be inducted into the "Crybaby Crew", and forever carry that as their custom title!

Banner,

Love that Hulk #1. I was just going to start a thread on these early issues.

Thanks...

I read all the time how mid-grade books are such duds - "Too high/expensive for the collectors/readers and too low-grade for the investors", but after migrating from a completionist to predominantly a cover collector, I love 'em! An accurately graded fine looks "brand new" to a non-comic collector, and if it has good color and no glaring front cover defects, I'm all over it...

Banner,

I think those 6.0's for keys such as this just rock. I also think that as the top grade ones continue to increase in value by leaps and bounds each year so do these mid grade gems. The recent rash of AF#15, JIM #83 and even the latest FF#1 6.0 on Comiclink are nice looking books and they are getting snatched up quickly at full price. If I can find a nice Hulk #1, 6.0 like yours I'm going to buy it for sure. You are 100% correct about the lure of a nice clean 6.0 book.

The question is, what sort of wrestling tapes?

I'm partial to WRESTLING WOMEN VS THE AZTEV MUMMY. Also Santo and The Blue Demon!




LOL! No, no, not wrestling movies. I've never seen an El Santo movie, but he was quite the star, from what I understand. And to my knowledge, no picture exists of him without his mask. He was even buried wearing it!

Anyway, what kind of wrestling...what kind of wrestling tapes do you THINK it would take to wrest an Avengers #4 from someone's grasp??? And notice that I traded COPIES of them - I still have the my copies (and yes, he knew he was getting copies, that was part of the trade agreement)!! Once in a lifetime trade, I'm sure.
