Wow, Superman 3! What a helluva pick up! Congrats to you. lol. I should have watched the whole video before replying….cause then I would’ve have seen that you ALSO GOT a Batman 3 as well! Amazing pickups.
How do you know the seller left it exposed to the sun? Maybe some earlier owner did back in 1972? Some of these books have changed hands so many times! Congrats on the Supes!
The seller told me that he displayed the avengers 1 and the daredevil 1 in an area where the sun would directly hit the comics for just a little bit each day. He also said he bought frames that were supposed to have uv protection. The end result was some pretty bad fading to the comics. 😢
Is it a coincidence that the mega collector (that you mentioned in your video from 3 months ago) also owned a BatMan 3? I assume you got that from that same guy?
Yea I got the Batman 3 from the same mega collector from a few months ago. Same seller as X-men 1, avengers 1, tos 39 and Superman 3. Time for me to recover 😅
my goodness, did the original owner of that AVENGERS #1 display that book in his/her window ?, I have seen sun damage in the past but what he/she did to that classic book is just criminal.
Yes they had it displayed on their wall with what they thought was uv protected frame and the direct sunlight hit the book a little bit per day. The result is very sad 😢
I mean whatever the FMV is on the Avengers 1 and DD1, yours are definitely going to be worth less. A book that faded might as well have brittle pages and take a comparable price hit. People HATE super faded books.
Awesome books! Congrats on getting your slabs added to your collection. Always great to have grails in any grade.
Love all the books! My faves are the Golden age Batman and Superman.
The Superman and Batman books are stunning and present amazing. Congrats on your pick up!
Wow dude! Beautiful books!
Great Batman pickup!
I had a feeling the fading was going to push that Avengers 1 into the 1’s

Thank you so much! I didn’t realize how scarce these books were at the time. I still have the Superman 3 and it’s an awesome book 👍🤙
I see you are dipping your toes into the Golden Age. The Batman 3 is a sleeper mega-key in my opinion. Hold it…

Great books. What’s Batman silver age keys do you like?
Thx I like golden age.
Beautiful books! Are those the new magazine-style cases that CGC just updated?
These don’t seem to be magazine style cases. Not exactly sure though. These are my first golden age books.
CGC seems to be grading very harshly lately. --particularly certain flaws like fading!! The Supes & Batman are blue chip keepers!!
Why did the Batman comic go down in color ? Because of the cleaning...🤔
There golden age are a keeper😮

@@ComicsWithBonics can’t stop now, you’re on a roll! 😂
Did you pay cgc to clean the batman ?
I had someone locally clean and press the Batman 3 before sending to CGC

Did someone draw a wiener on Batman #3? That's a suspicious spot where the cover ink is missing. 😃😃
I still cringe at seeing the faded books from the seller. Like I’m actually mad about it. But sweet GA books
