I haven't been on here in a while, but got the spring cleaning urge. I am not sure I correctly attached the pictures. If pictures aren't attached, I will go back and mess with them til I figure out how to attach them correctly.

Here is the first (of hopefully several) listing - depending on my motivation level and interest. If my prices are way out of line, will someone please let me know and I will revise them.

The grades are an estimate. Please let me know if you would like a scan or better picture of any of these.

Shade the Changing Man
2 VG/F
3 VG
4 F/VF
5 VG
6 VF
7 VG
8 VG

Steel the Indestructible
1 Stain on upper left, otherwise F/VF
2 G (bug chewed on lower right corner)
3 F/VF
4 F/VF
5 VF

Firestorm
2 VF
3 F/VF
4 VF
5 F

Fury of the Firestorm
2 water stain on bottom 1” otherwise VF
3 water stain on bottom 1” otherwise F
19 VG/F
48 F


What about $10 for them all, plus $4 shipping via mediamail?

I am back and trying to get the images pasted in correctly...I think this should actually work since the images appear in preview. Thanks.

I wish I had more time to commit to doing this better (better pics, better descriptions, etc.), but oh well...

Shipping is $3 - regardless of how many you buy. If you want insurance, add another $1.50. (for those who are veterans here and can offer any constructive input about anything, I am eager to hear it - shipping costs, insurance costs, pricing of the comics, the pictures of the comics, whether I should get my hair cut or not, etc. are all open for feedback.)

I hate grading, but following are my best estimates. Please let me know if you want a better picture or scan.
