Awesome thread idea.

 

My Comic Shop dot com and DC comics dot com have different issues listed for April 1980 and the wiki page for 1980 comics skips April and May. :ohnoez:

 

Anyone got a good source site?

Thanks guys!! Some great new resources there for me! :)

 

hm

 

I specifically collect The Phantom, Joker covers and a couple of New 52 titles.

 

As there were no Joker covers for any of the Bat books during April 1980, I think this is the winner. Sadly, don't own. But will hunt it down! :) EDIT: $0.99 on eBay. Sold!

I posted this earlier, it's the only site you need. Has both the books actually on sale for your birthday and the books cover dated for your birthday.

I think there was a simliar thread in one of the sub-forums.

 

At any rate, there were a bunch of books published in November of '69 but I consider this one my b-day book. :)

 

AmazingSpider-Man078_zps65f2d86b.jpg

 

For about the 12,000th time, that book was not published in November, 1969. That book was published/onsale in August, 1969.

 

If you want the Spider-Man book that was on sale in November, 1969, you'd need to buy Spider-Man 81.

 

This book, for example, has a cover date of December, 1969, yet has a date stamp received of October 29. I'm not sure why this doesn't compute for people.

 

Noooo... :cry:

 

Curse you Donut ----------> Destroyer of nostalic memories.

 

Now I get it though.

 

 

 

:sorry:
