@DrWatson I got really excited when I first glimpsed the 9.8 X-Force 1(bucket list book)😂, but I guess I’ll have to settle. Seriously though, I own my fair share of Wrightson Covers, but this is my first Wrightson signature, a not only one sig, but double signed!! @DrWatson I can’t thank you enough for your over the top thoughtful and generous gift, it is a book that will be a cherished part of my collection.
Merry Christmas buddy!

I've spent years perfecting my brand of assholery. DrWatson private msg quote post Address this user
I'm glad you like it.

I know nothing about sci-fi, fantasy, or horror magazines. Plus, it's hard to do Wrightson or Frezetta on the cheap, lol.

So, I formulated a list of potential gifts and presented it to the "committee." That was the unanimous choice, lol.

Merry Christmas.

P.S. I still have an X-Force #1... maybe next year.

Don't know who my Secret Santa is - no name on the card - but you did great. I love Marvel westerns, but have been concentrating lately on Golden Age Quality GI Combat. So it was wonderful to get books I wanted, but have not had time to track down. #99 is the next-to-last 15 cent issue, by the way.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone!

My secret Santa gave me exactly what I asked for. I’m reliving some early childhood memories of sitting in the corner of my bedroom and reading these….

My secret Santa was Ed C! I’m not sure what your board name is, but you, sir, get bonus points for including a nice Christmas card and the box was very nicely gift. Thank you again and Merry Christmas!

Thank you Scott M. I really appreciate the great gift. This is a cool Frank Cho book that I do not have. The Daredevil books are really nice and will be upgrades for the PC. This is one of my favorite runs.

Hello! Now that yesterday is done, I have some time to post. Big thanks to Chris for his gracious gift. This is my first original art comic and I’m very humbled to receive it. I am an instant fan and will be on the lookout for more of your work. Amazing books. Can’t wait until next year.
