Don't remember if I clicked the link (as I don't go to that board much.. I stick to here and ebay) but I know I bought both comics on your advice. :thumb:

New movies on the way and first Fett in comics = upside.
#68 is an awesome cover for Fett as well. :thumb:

...... and New Marvel Star Wars books also.

I've sold a few of these the last few shows. Good action on this book right now.
I have two copies of #42, one is trashy but the other is pretty tight for condition. I got them both super cheap a couple years back (like maybe $1-$2 each, the better condition copy was part of a set of the movie adaptation issues). I was very surprised to see copies of it going for $30+ at the recent Toronto ComicCon... I know Boba Fett is incredibly popular, but this one is just an adaptation of the SW:ESB movie after all, nothing new added to the myth of the character :?

I did pay about $20 for a NM#68, also a couple years back... it was worth it :thumb:

I've sold more above $30 for the SW #42

I sold a #68 for like $6...... when I did know any better.

There was a Ms Marvel CGC 9.8 that went for $1800 in a CLink auction last week. Should be interesting to see where this eBay auction ends up:

I picked up a Ms Marvel #1 this weekend. Not CGC, but still a pretty nice copy.

I also got a Nova #1

Slapstick #1 - I could see some real promise in a Marvel movie or TV show from that one.

But I own 100 Turok #1s.... so what do I know? :lol:

I already had copies of Nova #1 and Ms Marvel #1 that I got from discount bins at cons years ago, but I wanted a decent condition of the Ms. Marvel #1, so I recently picked up a CGC 9.6. Also grabbed a Marvel Super-heroes #13, but I'm going to look for a better copy at NYCC.

You should start a "Just Transformers" thread

I'd love to see the groo 1s and destroyer duck 1 shoot up. It would validate my buying of all the decent copies I find for a buck. I'd probably still keep them all. Love me some groo.
I have a mid grade run of the first 10 of Groo that was part of a collection; I was thinking of listing them on ebay...you would hold onto these?
Truthfully, I was just making a joke, but with Marvel being owned by Disney, you never know what they may decide to use as source for a medieval cartoon. I can see it now...Stay tuned after Ultimate Spider-Man and Avengers Assemble for everyone's favorite barbarian...Groo the Wanderer...only on Disney XD.

Pretty sure Groo is owned by Evanier and Argonies. But I would love a Groo cartoon.
