I have been buying and selling Nintendo comics since 1999, I had purchased some large chunks of the original unsold publisher overstock. I had around 1500 copies back in early 2000 or so, most were NM+ and would of been killer CGC candidates. Blew them out on Ebay at $5.00 each. Most were Gameboy, Nintendo comic system and Mario issues, very few of the Zelda's. I even added these books to my Overstreet Market report as they are undervalued.

This is invaluable if you want to find out which stories are reprinted where. For example, if you cannot find a copy of NCS 7, you can see the Zelda story was reprinted in softcover TPB #1, but not the hardcover.
Thanks for keeping that site alive.

Visit my eBay Store! CGC graded Valiants! Toon Tumblers! Mega Mega Magnets! Yea, but he's on "the wrong side of right". Someone can be 100% right about something and still be wrong.

I SUPPORT THE 1%. Without them, the rest of us are screwed.
Still looking for a CGC SMB 1 in 9.8. Bought my Zelda 1 CGC 9.8 for less than $90 on ebay.
Would also like to find the Captain N and Game Boy #1 issues in 9.8.
These have always been undervalued in my opinion as well.
Respectfully,

ANSWER: "The safest approach is to avoid discussing the topic of future collectability with these individuals: first, they know more than anyone else; second, they are deaf to any opinion that does not agree with their own; third, they are misguided optimists, assuming past practice could not possibly apply in their case."
