| Tough act to follow, @Batman66... oh well. A couple Kaluta's, the HOS has an MJ insert.   A couple Wrightson's, HOS has an MJ insert again.   A buddy picked this book up for me. I haven't researched it yet or opened it but from what I can tell its kind of rare Sakaii Marvel art. It's a few short stories done by different artists that feature the Hulk.  This isn't new but "like new" freed from its polybag prison.  |

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

Thanks to @Scifinator for helping me expand my Spawn Collection! I now own 5 books from the Scifinator Unremarkable Pedigree. I believe @Ebaymafia came up with the perfect name. I know Scifinator has some pretty amazing books but I've yet to purchase one of his more remarkable items. I'll have to print up some custom stickers one of these days, but for now my memory is still decent enough to recall what items I've purchased & received as gifts from members on this forum.  |

Picked this up just because it’s signed by Marv Wolfman and George Perez. Once the sad news came out about Mr. Perez I felt a sense of urgency to pick this up.  |

This arrived today. For anyone interested in back stories, this book has had a roller coaster ride of prices. The cult classic story where Miracleman has to kill his former sidekick after he leveled half of London. It was a lower print run that could not get reprinted for decades while it was locked up in ownership litigation. Now it has been reprinted and prices are fairly pedestrian by todays standards...under $100 for 9.0, under $200 for 9.6. I still can't get myself to spring for 9.8's when buying 9.6's makes my comic dollar go 3 times as far: |

| Waited probably over a year for this which was funded on Indiegogo. The pandemic didnt help. Got to read the digital copy months ago, but it's not the same. Scott Gordon Murphy's Plot Holes TPB. I pledged for the Hardcover and Softcover. The detailing (gloss and embossing) on the books are incredible. The pledge also included prints which arrived on pretty thick watercolor type paper. It was nice that he signed the interior of both books   Oversized Hardcover   |

Thank you @esaravo for these amazing Rampaging Hulks and the bonus Wolverine! I feel like my side of the trade is far less impressive and I may have to find something else to send you in the future. |

Blew my load for the year on some drek.      My first Australian price variant which was hiding in plain sight at the LCS.        Not my first choice of grading company, and the label is ass so it's blacked out.  |

Finally, I’ve been looking for an affordable copy of X-Men 55. Happy to finally have it.  Also picked up this copy of X-Men 23, both comics from @Darkseid_of_town at a great price.  |

I received these yesterday from a trade with @flanders to add to my ASM run. He threw in a few extra books, and there is also a slab that I haven’t scanned yet (I have to warm up the tubes in my scanner for that). Thank you, James.    Extras:   And these came today from a small online purchase.    |

I got this today from @dennisqdw. Honestly this is an investment copy for me, I have a restored 6.5 which would be my long-term keeper. I do have a 3rd copy that is CBCS 3.0. My hunch is that the Shazam Universe is the best chance DC has of cinematic success. This book introduces the "Lt. Marvels" and it pre-dates the introductions of Mary Marvel and Captain Marvel Jr. It also has, in my opinion, one of the better covers in the series. So it checks a lot of boxes for me for an investment book that's under 4 figures: |
