Anyone have an idea of what the premium is for Mark Jewelers variants in CGC grade compared to regular issues?

I just bought Warriors of Plasm 1-8 and had them pressed. They’re all 9.8 candidates. They’ll be in my next batch to CGC.

This is a post I just made in the MARVEL COMICS NEW UNIVERSE FANS Facebook group, regarding a Star Brand 1 in CGC 9.8 that sold for $199.99 OBO this morning: STAR BRAND NUKES THE COLLECTORS MARKET WITH THE NEW!

Thanks for the knowledge drop, IMJ!

Is that your slab, IMJ? Beautiful book.

I’m sorry to hear you have to ship three of them back, MKB. Do you have a Lazarus set in the Registry? Which issues and in what grades do you have so far in your collection?

Someone just told me that Korvac is being teased in Marvel Comics 1001.

My 7 modern comics were marked RECEIVED by CGC on 10-22.

Very weird! Lol

Are you addressing my newsstand question?

Thanks for the info.

Are CGC and CBCS now denoting newsstands?

Interesting. Thanks!

How much value does a double cover add to a comic?

Wow!
