I started collecting CGC WWT in 2015, but I read the crap out them in the 70s. WWT is one of my favorite Sci-Fi/Horror comics of all time. Yes, they are reprints, but I Love Em!! Marvel had great stories from the 40s, 50s and 60s that us slightly younger readers discovered in the 70s through WWT. WWT1 has my favorite story with "The Thing that Devoured a Planet". WWT1 is easy to find in any grade except 9.8...It took me years to find a WWT1 9.8, so if you find one...be prepared to pay a premium. I'm glad to see more WWT registry sets popping up, and I hope the trend continues. WWT1 is a Key issue, but not the rarest. WWT12 is the rarest on census and the WWT15 30 cent price variant is the King of Rarity Keys!! If you look on Ebay, there are alot of WWT raw issues floating around, but few above VF. I've seen higher grade CGC WWT issues graded within the last 2 years, so someone is finding them. These are Bronze Age Gems!!
WWT1 Releases 08/28/1973, 36 pages, 20 cents, 4 stories
1. "The Thing That Devoured a Planet" - Reprint from Adventures into Weird Worlds #2 (1952), 5th story

4. "The Eye of Doom" - Reprint from Mystic #6 (1951), 1st story

WWT2 cover created by my favorite comic book artist, Mike Esposito!! Extremely difficult to find a 9.8, especially with White Pages!! This my most expensive WWT issue to date (2025). Four stories reprinted from Marvel Tales #125 (1954) and #138 (1955)...yeah...just try to find the originals in decent condition!!

I love the "Thing in the Bog" cover!! This has a decent number of issues in the census. 4 stories, as usual. Reprints from Spellbound #22 (1954), Mystic #30 (1954), Uncanny Tales #12 (1953), and Spellbound #16 (1953). Again...think of it as an archive of stories from the 1950s. My Dad could have collected them, but collecting, in my opinion, really started with the Silver Age in the 1960s when I was a kid.

Note: The asking and selling prices for all WWTs issues has gone up quite a bit. Either inflation or sign of interest in the series (I hope).

WWT12 is Insanely rare in any grade. CGC Pop is only 5 with two 9.6s, and now I have one of them. Fairly recent grade date, so somebody has found some good issues to grade. I also own one of the three 9.4s. Definitely a Key Issue due to rarity. Then again, it depends on how many are submitted to CGC and whether people care to submit them. I am hoping the low number is due to rarity because I have seen very very few WWT12 in the last 10 years in any auction or eBay.

Lucky Find for me as I missed out on the other 9.8, which went for an Uber Amount. Pristine white pages and recently graded.
