Here are some purchases from over the past few weeks, including some from yesterday at FanExpo Dallas. A few "might" have made their way into the submission I dropped off at the CBCS booth for pressing and grading. I will now try to wait patiently for the next 6-8 months until I get them back. |

Quote:Originally Posted by EbayMafiaI cant really speak to the cover art or why people like it as much as they do, but the book itself has the potential to catch fire....it is her first Appearance, and she is often used in some connection with the Dark Justice group, which we know are under development for a series on HBO supposedly. Aside from that she has been linked to swamp thing, in the short lived series. She is considered a keystone in the magic community of DC, and could also be drawn or pulled into the upcoming Zatanna movie DC has announced is forthcoming at some point. Aside from those things, Madame Xanadu will headline her own streaming series on HBO Max, set on Earth 19 Of the Arrowverse.She flies pretty low under the radar and her intro was far enough back that given the right exposure her character could create a serious demand for that book in particular. Aside from and nevermind her now and then rubbing elbows with my iconic muse, Zatanna! |

Quote:Originally Posted by Studley_Dudley I saw the 2 part Batman/Aliens story in here. It’s in one of the boxes I haven’t sorted yet. It’s an all-time favorite of mine. I’m keeping that even though I have it in Trade form along with the copies I bought when it first released. Wrightson art to boot! |

@00slim is the X-men 60 a jcpenny reprint or an original | ||

@Batman66 Good eye! I had set it aside but not inspected it yet. Turns out, it’s a reprint. That’s a bummer. I didn’t see the typical reprint indicators & the board had a comic shop’s logo printed on it. But the back cover had an ad for the 90’s X-Men cartoon on VHS. So, that cleared it up real quick. | ||

I ventured into a populated area today. Go me. This is a casualty of the negative space contest and was right inside the door of the venue. 9.6 is bs, 3 non color breaking ticks and three reader dents don't qualify. This will be re done in cbcs for sure. Hitting the same grade would be the ultimate goal. I just know it can look better. Lesson of the day: if a vendor won't open the book so you can look at the back, walk. I trusted him because I was so jazzed. my awesome pickup of the day went south. By the way, if said vendor is wearing sunglasses indoors its because they don't want to make eye contact. |

@HeinzDad He's wearing sunglasses because his pupils were probably dilated. I've never heard of a dealer who wouldn't take a book out of the bag. | ||

He kinda looked like Dee Snyder Edit: I was super excited. Supposedly some other vendor looked at it 30 minutes earlier. The cover presents high grade but everyone saw the back. It happened to have 5 boards in the Mylar to compress it. I guess all I can say is is that I’m a pushover. |

@flanders thanks! I have a raw somewhere as well, but was inspired by the great copy you posted to acquire one for my JLD collection while they are still reasonably priced. | ||
