This issue officially starts the transition from the Conway Firestorm to the Ostrander Firestorm. Honestly, I felt like the series started to take a turn for the worse under Ostrander, but that won't stop me from trying to collect all of the books in his run in 9.8! Although this came back only as a 9.6, I'm happy with it for now. I'm sure I'll try to upgrade once I plug all of the other holes in my collection.

Green Lantern and Firestorm in the same book sounds like an amazing combination! I always wondered how Firestorm would do as a more space-faring character like the Silver Surfer or Green Lantern, so this cover allows the mind to wander...

I wasn't really thrilled when Firestorm switched over from Conway to Ostrander. I feel like the character changed, and I also felt like the artwork took a bit of a hit. This cover reminds me of both of those things. As a completist, you've gotta collect them all, but this book just makes me sad.

The Sand Demon was an interesting villain for Firestorm, and making him an incarnation of Martin Stein was a very intriguing twist. Although it's not my favorite art, the situation Firestorm finds himself in on the cover is pretty cool. Obviously, thrilled with the the 9.8 grade!

When I sent this in, I could have sworn that it was going to be a 9.8. Really bummed that it only came out as a 9.4...sometimes it's hard to know just why some books don't grade out higher. Regardless, this is currently the only book on the census, so I'm thrilled to have the highest known copy!

I got this book in a bundle of 3 from a nice guy on eBay who gave me a discount for buying all 3 at once. These books aren't as prevalent, especially in 9.8 grade, so I was happy to snag this copy.

I'm not a huge fan of the Ostrander incarnation of Firestorm, but I have to admit that this is a pretty cool cover. I found it for sale on eBay and convinced the seller to come down to a more reasonable price. My first 9.8 in the back end of the 2nd volume of Firestorm!

While I wasn't thrilled with the tail end of Firestorm's 2nd volume, it's always nice to have a copy of one of his books in 9.8 grade. I was a little surprised I got the full 9.8 on this one due to the wrap, but obviously very happy. As of this writing, it's one of only 2 copies at this grade.

Sometimes it's just a matter of staying on top of auction listings in order to fill out your collection. I found issues 90 & 91 listed for less than half of what it would cost me to send them off to CGC for grading, so why not pick them up? Happy to add these to my collection.

I had this book raw and thought it had a solid chance at a 9.8. I went ahead and sent it in, and sure enough, it got the grade! This is the only 9.8 graded copy on the census!
