Look forward to seeing the picture!

While not undervalued, I picked up a first appearance of Shang chi in 9.4 at a shop for a price below market, and lower than it was for the last several months.

Nutty number 1. Uk paper comic. First appearance of Bananaman!
Fox entertainment has acquired the rights to bring this back to the small screen ~ but not many people know that.
Bananaman is a UK cartoon that has a tv series, but first appeared in a comic book.

I had been looking for years to get Nutty issue 1 with free gift still attached (common to have free gifts in uk comics). I think it is undervalued :? , the last one sold 4 or 5 years ago (with free gift). I managed to get one of ebay for £50 (because I wanted it).

Issue 1 regularly sells arround £15 , but never seen this come up in ages with free gift still attached ~ so slashed the cash. Also got first bananaman on cover for a £1.


If you can find a good copy of Nutty 1 for £10 or under might be worth the money, if Fox puts out a show
I wish their was a Spinal Tap comic, and I had a copy CGC graded at 11.

Not sure it this has been mentioned but I've long thought 2000AD #2 is criminally undervalued. If this was normal comic sized and CGC would put a slab on it it would sell for much much more than it does. Tough book to find in any grade. Still waiting for the Dredd tv show, maybe that'll bring some respect to this book.

I agree. Prog 2 with free gift s cheap for such a major character. Very iconic, well known in the general population than many that sell much higher.
Condition is hard to judge ( no pun intended) on paper comics

I agree, such a great character and great read. I picked up #2-10 in Near Mint with gifts about 5 years ago, truly tough book.
