Nice. Congrats!Escaflown4 wrote:Quite a bit. I was actually planning on bidding on the fantastic four #1 cgc 3.5 on Comiclink, but had to give it up for this purchase. I couldn't pass up the JIM#83 as the seller priced it under the average GPA.JustCallMeAric wrote:nice. How much does something like that cost?

It's been a while since I followed up with MiracleMan. All I remember was #15 was the big book of the series. Looking at Ebay's past sales, #16 sold for $33 and #17 & 18 sold for about $13. They were described in NM.ian_house wrote:Just got Miracleman 16, 17 and 18 for what seemed a good price. I paid £5 for the 16 (Alan Moore) and £3 for 17 & 18 (Neil Gaiman).
I'm not sure whether to keep them or eBay them. I'm not sure I'm going to be able to afford the full run of these. What do you reckon I'd get on eBay?

#24 and #23 usually do quite well also, as there are usually few copies of each for sale.Escaflown4 wrote:It's been a while since I followed up with MiracleMan.

That's how I picked mine up a few years back - same lot items and about the same price. It's money well spent too, because it's a terrific read. I hadn't enjoyed reading a team book as much since reading the original Harbinger stuff back in the day.Jersen wrote:Still (and kinda always) on a Byrne kick.

Technically it's the first in color. His true first appearance was in a book given out in a comic con. I forgot which, but people usually look for Next Men #21 as his first.tmcneil82 wrote:Is that THE first appearance?

Yep, there was even a special note of that in the auction description! Every other Next Men lot I saw was minus that issue at least.Escaflown4 wrote:Nice, did that come with issue #21, Hell Boy first appearance issue?Jersen wrote:Still (and kinda always) on a Byrne kick.

The lot I bought several years back had that issue in it too. Once in a while they creep in there!Jersen wrote:Yep, there was even a special note of that in the auction description!
