Hey, that's a nice copy! Where did you buy it? How long have you had it?
I hit the Gorgos and Kongas hard back around that time and finished both runs using eBay auctions. Got pretty lucky and got some good deals on 'em. I loved those two series as a kid and they became a priority for me as a collector, but for years at cons I only ever found a few low grade issues. eBay auctions really paid off after a few years of saved searches.
Which issues of your Gorgo and Konga comics are in the best grade?
I'm not a herd-runner concerning the current comic book collecting community. I don't spend an arm and a leg for comics and I don't mind having mid-grade issues. I won't pay extra for a book just because it's slabbed (I usually crack them out anyway). I don't pay the ridiculous price spreads for high grade books- for me a strictly graded VF is very close to being as desirable as a NM (or the mythical 10.0). I don't collect Modern comics, or many from pretty much the last 30 years. I just want to complete runs from the Bronze and earlier with complete mid-grade copies or better (FN-VF is the sweet spot). I don't get books slabbed to keep. I think giving big prices for slabbed Modern variants borders on the ridiculous. Also, I think this mania for pressing and cleaning to resubmit for a "grade bump" is folly. To me a 9.4 is just a desirable as a 9.8 and I think the price differences in the marketplace between the nit-picky upper grades are insanity. It just depends on the 3rd party grader's state of mind that day whether a comic gets assigned a 9.6 or 9.8 (and sometimes a 9.4), or if he actually damages the book by handling it and rifling through the pages to move on to the next book and soak the customer for the next 20 bucks or whatever. I didn't mean to rant. I'm just on a different page than most current collectors. I watch You Tube comic book auctions for entertainment and find myself eye-rolling frequently. They do their thing and I do mine.
And some flaws speak to the history of comics in general like subscription creases, arrival dates, distributors' paint over-spray, and store stamps. These days I value all of that.
1) How do you handle storage? I have a room full of comics and am running out of places to store new purchases.
I looked over my Charlton Konga, Gorgo, Captain Atom and Blue Beetle comics this evening and the only one that I could find with a date stamp was this one:17
