I finally picked one up from boardie Pablo @Dreamtoreal1 about 2 years ago. A nice copy that I might have paid too much for at the time, but I have always wanted. 

My thoughts about overpaying for books is that eventually (even in some cases, pretty quickly), become real bargains. I never, in my wildest dreams ever thought comics would bring what they do now. 

Awsome books like this are only going to go up in value...

Weren't/aren't you selling basically all of your Cole books?

Yup. But I love him and true love never dies. 

Were you selling the others for a big purchase? I’ve sold some of his “lesser” stuff (to me) but will always keep my favorites around.

Not any specific purchase. I bought a lot of stuff over the last few months, across ages and genres, and needed to wrangle it in. Sometimes selling stuff lets me focus a bit better on my collecting needs. I still have my favorite Cole books, such as Contact 12 and Blue Bolt 105.

Focus is hard these days. Was paying off a big book — Cole as well, actually — but still finding good deals on stuff I couldn’t pass up.

Blue Bolt 105 I still haven’t acquired that is on my list; same with Mask 2 (that one is going to be rough, esp with how thrifty I tend to be).

Mask 1 and 2 are great. Maybe even the best. I wonder if I have the discipline to buy less stuff and go after one of those hm

And just like that I see a Mask 2 for sale on a FB page. Still too expensive for me; would need to sell a lot — big and small — and I don’t have that kind of dedication to selling right now.

It ain’t cheap - but it is my all-time favorite LB Cole cover - prefer it to Mask 1.
