Thanks. I love Dan Parent’s work. You can order these from him directly on Archie.com. He’ll do any of the Archie characters - or you if you desire! Well worth the $59.

Do you think he would accept a commission to do Katy Keene..who is arguably a fringe character in the Archie mythos?

@Darkseid_of_town I love that cover, where she's more concerned about a couple of seagulls than the monstrous fanged nightmare rising out the waves at her heels.

Katy Keene Pinup parade 15, less than 20 copies estimated to exist, I think...I own more than a few of them!

I emailed Dan and asked if he would consider doing something with Katy Keene as Zatanna...he shot me a full figure drawing price at 100....thinking on it now!

@Darkseid_of_town If you go for it I'd like to see it.

Now I'm thinking about Veronica as Catwoman!

This arrived in today's mail as my share of my trade with @Scifinator. The mail is still unpredictable, as it took 8-days to reach me, but the books I mailed to him only took 3. Thanks for the trade/book, Rich!

That's a book that is often hard to find in nicer grades with that thick spine and the color that the cover is..it almost invites damage

I've gave up on buying raw books quite some time ago. With forum advice and books I've traded for MCS seems to have it together, grade wise at least. These are just a couple books I was buying to sample their input.
The SW 23 is at 8.0 but looks 9.0. The SW 27 is at 9.0 and looks that. I also bought a second copy of the flaming carrot, both were 8.0 and there weren't any scans. The worse of the two is 8-8.5, the better is a 9.2 I'd say. Push comes to shove I'd order raws there again for sure, shipping is another story though.

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
@HeinzDad what happened with shipping? It's usually fast for me and only $5 even with large orders.

I complained about it on the usps thread so ill keep it short. Ups Innovations?? Ups delivers it to my local USPS? WTF is that. The package sat at my local branch for over a week because usps doesn't care about extra work they get dumped by UPS. Thats my opinion anyways. The fact happens to be a gemini mailer and media mail costs 3 something, considering these came in a Gemini???? Sorry about the rant, I'll still order from them again.

I think I have some ups innovations shipments coming my way from Midtown Comics. Hopefully it isn't delayed as well.
