I don't like the centering on this copy, but it's a really high number and it should do well.
Another Saginaw book that will end up on the eBay record list.
It's a great time to be a Miller collector if you've been fretting about the lack of material. Pages are flooding the market.
These pages generate just a little bit of interest… I think this was the fist issue of McFarlane's Spider-Man that I actually bought.
Post a Mignola cover and I will feature it here. That's a rule.

Description:
THE SAGINAW COLLECTION
Hailing from Saginaw Michigan, this original owner collections features complete runs of most major Marvel Titles in astonishing condition. Once collectors get their hands on these ultra high grade books, they will be amazed by the vivid deep colors on the covers and the white interior pages. When we first held these books, it became clear that this is what silver age marvels looked like the day they hit the newsstand. A young man bought everyone of these stunning comics from the same newsstand from 14 years old to 35 years old any read them once carefully and placed them inside plastic in groups of 10 and wrapped them tight. We had the honor of being the ones to open them this year. These early Marvels have not seen the light of day for almost 50 years. Unlike some of the other great Silver Age pedigree collections, the Saginaw collection will be offered on EBAY exclusively with No Reserve.

Bad-ass page? Sure thing.
I'm too lazy to go through, but is this the same seller as the previous page from 138 or is it just a coincidence/copycat thing?
People dig this book, in case you didn't know.
I love posting this book to shock and awe the old timers.

The Book:
When going through eBay for this post, the top lots were dominated by books from the saginaw collection. This one will be the top lot and will break into the all time ebay comic sales list.
Classic cover, indeed. I haven't bought any JIM books in a long time, but whenever I see this I feel like I should reverse that trend.
Filter has all the eBay gems.
I wonder what the buy it now price was.
Gary Frank brings the texture.

Description:
This listing is for an original, 1963 X-Men #1 in VF/NM to NM- condition with off-white to white pages.
The comic is glossy, clean, complete, and has no tape, repairs, or restoration of any kind.
The Book:
Well, how about that? A very cool page for an X-Men fan in general and… it's Byrne!
Crummy photo, but knowing Noto that thing must shine in person.
Want listed! What great cover dialog.
What a bad-ass page this is. It's a great image of Swamp thing and it's penned by Moore.
Sandman took about a year to take off. After that first year the buzz was basically deafening. At this point the book had found its voice and the arc format that would take it through to the end of the run. Classic stuff.

Nice looking book! It's also a cover that was previously unfamiliar to me. I love the black background and the action popping on top.
This is a cool book to me. It's a significant 1st appearance and I love the layout of the cover.
Cool cover, right?
