Sweet mama!!! Mr Excel says I have 3 #1's, and doubles of #2,3,4,9 and 10 of Mister Miracle.

I remember taking them around to try and sell/trade at shops about 17years ago and no one wanted them!!
Pretty sure my 1's are all 6-7.5 range - time to dig them out and confirm quantities and quality - looks like I have some contender books for my August submission - hope the movie actually gets made and is decent

Why it took me so long to try Tank Girl, I don't know. I enjoyed the movie, but I never bought a comic. Now that I have, I think I found a new love!!! The comics are definitely NOT for kids!!! There is swearing, adult humor and some nudity. But the stories are well written and humorous while the art is great!! Plus, the actual paper is heavier and just feels nice and sturdy. Anyways, I got these two today and I'll be looking for more in the coming months!!!

I gave this set to my daughter for her birthday a few years ago. Comics make great presents and she is into them. She got my 9.8 Saga #1 too. This year she gets a 9.4 1st Deadpool
I am a great dad. Happy Father’s Day!

My niece calls to tell me that someone she knows has written a Star Wars comic. He did a comic signing at a restaurant that has a comic shop off to the side. She said she was going to bring me a signed copy of the comic. I was perplexed, but I thought okay.

Today, she brings me the comic and I was both perplexed and amused.




I already know the guy. He had published a cartoon I drew for a little over a year between 1998 & 2000 in a local (free) pop-culture magazine. He'd written a movie script. He'd written for the newspaper. I haven't seen him in about 10 years. I guess comics are now added to his resume.

just as an aside the woman tasked with directing the movie was on record stating Barda is her favorite character. That would seem to bode well for issue 4 and possibly 6 first furies....aside from the fourth world books are vastly undervalued give their context and enormous number of characters introduced. There is even by some accounts a parody of Stan Lee in issue 6. Much of the Star wars visual and mythos are likely direct steals from the fourth world..I e. Source vs force or compare the death stars appearance to apokolips. Vader often said....come to the Darkseid Luke! Aside from the knowledge that Thanos himself
is a clear steal of Darkseid.
Nevermind the double cameos in Jimmy Olsen before you get Darkseids first full app in Forever People 1

@Darkseid_of_town Don't forget #5 as well, Barda's 2nd appearance. If done right she could be a big character moving forward and with those #4s running up in price, more people will turn to #5 I imagine. Already got my high grade copies!

Apologies for any barcodes that are visible. The FF 49 is an upgrade to my current copy. So, there may be a 49 coming up for sale soon.

@Drogio I got those from a Craigslist ad, he had a bunch of others, I just cherry picked what I thought was the best. Lots of moderns which I have very limited knowledge of.

This white-paged beauty came in today's mail, another high grade SA Adventure Comics to add to my run (21 slabs and counting). It came with paperwork (and a sticker) showing that it was sold by Heritage in 2013, and Heritage claims it is part of the Slobodian Pedigree collection. No pedigree is noted on the CGC label. Anybody hear of this "pedigree" before?

Looks like everyone's been having a good time. Congrats on the pickups @drogio & @Studley_Dudley ; those books look beautiful.

With Spawn #300 coming up, and my love of ASM #300 swipes, I figured I'd grab the Spawn set of swipes as well.

First one to arrive was Spawn #227. Many thanks to @masochism for pointing this one out to me.




The special "Thanks" issue should be here in the next day or two, depending on how efficient the post office feels like being this week. The 300's are on order. I feel like #24 isn't necessarily a swipe, but I like it enough to pair it with the others. I found a great copy the other day at my favorite dollar bin treasure trove.






Been finding odds & ends recently. Picked up a great looking copy of Aliens: Newt's Tale #1, first time I've found one of those in the wild. Spent way too much money but also picked up some new OA that's on its way.
