Owner's Description

NM, white pages, Rocky Mountain Pedigree, Question backup story. Once I had a #1 in 9.4, and a #4 in 9.0, I started looking for a high grade #5. In the middle of a month when I had no spending cash (all the good books usually show up for sale when I'm broke, it seems) I found an ebay seller who had BB #3 and #5 both at 8.5 up for separate auctions with starting bids of $39.95 and a Buy It Now of $49.95. These were in the old CGC labels, mind you. Since, at the time, I needed both #3 and #5, I felt I was in luck. I did the buy it now on #5, but made the mistake of waiting to see if I could get #3 cheaper. As it turned out, the #3 8.5 went for over $55. Let that be a lesson to all : If a Buy It Now seems like a good deal, jump on it, because bidding wars make prices go higher than expected. I still got #5 and sent it in to CGC for the new holder with an updated label, and now, I found a 9.4 on comiclink and it's a pedigree!...Final issue of the series. The Blue Beetle stars in "Blue Beetle Faces the Destroyer of Heroes." Untitled Question back-up story. Scripts by D.C. Glanzman. Plot, art, and cover by Steve Ditko. Cover price $0.12.
