| @HotKeyComics Great information Shelby. Show some of the inserts that come with the foreigns, like the Batman mask you got from me. Some of the French books I have seen had some great inserts that American comics don't have, such as games, masks, puzzles etc... | ||

| @HotKeyComics Yes, very informative! I have picked up a few comic books while on travel, not because they were foreign but because I am a comic book collector. No majors finds but I will be on the lookout now. It’s funny that you can find these comics in department store shelves or just lumped with other periodicals. I always need something to do while my wife is shopping or I end up the carrier of stuff. Here is one that I picked up in Italy with several issues packaged under one book. Sorry about flash but the pages are really glossy.   Here is a Polish version that I picked up in Belgrade.   Are those considered first printings or reprints? |

Yeah those are first prints, first time they appeared in that country. Italy loves combining multiple issues together and they also use really high quality products too. Poland is a tough country to get keys from so really nice find! |

| @HotKeyComics I worked at a couple of art galleries, museums, and design firms at the time. “Nice find” is relative, but I appreciate the kudos. I am mostly into printed, drawn, and painted works. Back then, my clients were collectors of “high”, cultural, and historical art, like pieces of the Berlin Wall, tribal masks & weapons, vintage royalty attire, out of production arms (such as the Mosin–Nagant), etc. Way too rich for my blood, but research and acquisition were fun! This year is booked, but I plan to be in Europe for a couple weeks next year. In the meantime, I will research tough countries to get keys from. Thanks  |
