Set Description:

The entire set is in CGC 9.4-9.8!

The FF Byrne saga was so addictive that, after reading a few stories, I immediately started collecting Marvel comics!
In these 61 issues there's everything: Humour, Pathos, Energy, great art a lot of action.

JB is definitely my favourite bronze-copper age artist!

I find late bronze/early copper age Marvel comics particularly challenging to collect in High grade because books were not immediately bag&boarded after purchase and the low quality of the paper and cover meant spine stress and corner dings even in unread copies...

I had the intention to cherry-pick the best books I could find and submit them personally to CGC... but since even unread and apparently perfect copies came back with disappointing grades I decided to buy selected issues already graded.

Issues 261, 269 and 276 looked cursed to me :)

P.S. I am the second collector in the ranking to complete the set!!!

CIAO!
