Freak, in my line of work, we come in contact with a lot of that nonsense and let me say, it is only going to get worse with the attacks from China. And I do mean attacks.
That's freaking cool. Was talking to some friends of mine who have been in comics way longer than I have and they said that's where they always got someone to sign. Cover signing wasn't really a thing until maybe the 90s and later.

This one has been in the collection for decades and when I was rebagging and boarding, I thought this one looks pretty nice so I had it graded at Heroescon. Bottom right corner keeps this from being super high grade. Love that Steranko cover. Just a classic.
