I haven't aired it out. It's part of the provenance. | Galen130 private msg quote post Address this user | |
Even though I haven’t posted in the ‘other’ forums since last November, I still peek from time to time to see what’s being sold by the more reputable sellers there. This one will ship soon. |

I don't want to brag, but cashiers are always checking me out. | power_struggle55 private msg quote post Address this user | |
bought 15 recent comics the past week. for the first time in god knows how long. only 1 or 2 issues behind in all the series I read. there were points where I was like 7-9 issues behind. I read amazing spider-man Thor Avengers X-Men Fantastic Four Power Rangers and do get an issue here and there of random stuff |

I'll probably wake up constipated. | Pre_Coder private msg quote post Address this user | |
Quote:Originally Posted by Galen130 It possibly could. The brain's dopamine can react to it like a drug,.. seriously! Golden Age books provide a different type of stemuli though. More like a pleasurable motivation without the health issues. Unless you go broke.... |

Please continue to ignore anything I post. | southerncross private msg quote post Address this user | |
Or like stuff that no one else collects, 15 years ago I picked up a Crowley copy of Bill Battle 3 with the outrageous cover blurb 'Die commie rats, die' in 9.2 for $100. So if you like covers no one else cares about from pedigrees where multiples are not put on over FMV you can have fun collecting them. | ||

To answer your question, no, this is not where the comics go to die. | MutantMania private msg quote post Address this user | |

I showed my wife and she was so happy for me she started to cry. | Batman66 private msg quote post Address this user | |
so I sold some of my bigger books to fund the cap 1,3,4,5,&9 and tha all star 8, figured it would be easier to replace the silver age grails. I sold this ff1 to AJ with grailz on IG,he ended up selling all his wall books and this came available. Was planning on replacing my ff1 but didn't think I would replace it with the same book. Wife and I had Stan sign the book in '17 so it had sentimental value. Glad to have it back. Also picked up the love and rockets 1 from '82 to go with my love and rockets 1 '81 |

Verified, only took about 12 weeks. Kirby, Steranko, Wrightson, Perez, Thomas. Not a signature collector but these just got accumulated. |

@CatCovers So, he had a shop 15-17 years ago. There’s approximately 1100 books. Off the top of my head: - 1st King Shark - 9/11 commemorative Spidey Newsstand - 2 Hebrew editions of Ultimate Spider-Man 1 - a handful of Spawn Newsstands (issues in the 50’s). - I pulled a few Godzilla books for a friend. - A lot of 90’s FF. At least a full short box, maybe two. - Witchblade/Tomb Raider (Prism Glitter Variant) I’m surprised it’s a $30 book. One issue away from NYX 3 & Batman Adventures 12. 2 trades I pulled for my library: Batman Vs. Predator Marvel 1602 |
