@GAC I had an offer on a copy a few months ago and it must not have reached the reserve. Then the guy never relisted it |

I'm surprised no one has brought up Western comics or Classics Illustrated. Maybe Treasure Chest. Not to mention the endless movie and TV show comics like Lassie and Black Stallion. I think drek has probably been around for a longer time than most people think. | ||

Who knew I'd be climbing up in the garage shelving this year for 80's Superman #4, Teen Titans Annual 2, Star Wars 50, etc, etc. Likely to keep happening. |

Valiant....the literal definition of gimmicks. They seemed to start with good stories and writing and quality but then went to the inserted redemption cards, foil , die cut covers and embossed stuff, as well as the upside down book on the back half etc. I think at some point they had promised no gimmicks and next thing they were literally defining the trend | ||

This might be dreck related: I did a search on MCS for Wolverine 1 and it came up with 16 pages of results. Searching Wolverine 2 was only 4 pages. I wondered if that was a record so I searched Superman 1 and got 23 Pages of results. X-men 1 has 36 pages of results and Batman 1 has 45 pages of results. Talk about the "make big bigger" philosophy of business. That's a lot of #1's and a lot of money grab. | ||
