Whoa! BAF in the house! @Bronzeagefan

I'll try to post some more here later.

Nice TOS 15 there! I still need one of those. Always love the tobacco sunburst covers.

Thanks! Yeah, I lucked out on this one and it's in really sweet condition. I was stoked too as it's one of my favorite pre-hero covers. Congrats on yours! And btw, your collection is absolutely insane!

Thank you very much Vexsus! Will adjust the Scorecard to reflect this.

Down to 11 and I have a JIM76 arriving this week so we should be able to close out another title and get to the top 10 countdown

Have not picked up anything in a long time. Emerald city last year was not good for me finding books. Low grade and over priced. Bad combination

I hear that - saw a ST97 at the same show that was marked up aggressively.

Honestly, just happy to see some at the local cons. Lot of same stock rotated between these Ohio shows.

With only a handful to go, may have to see what MCS has around....

That is a good game! Too bad that you already almost covered all titles and numbers. My pre-hero Marvels is coming up in mailbox sometime in late November.

Feel free to post any PHM books ya got - all are welcome here

The "game" is just something to do along the way - wanted to see how long it takes for people to post all the covers.

Look forward to seeing what ya got!
