Books you just cant find in the Wild 22 22

[fastballspecial]

Its a very tough book. Thor 25 is also very tough in NS. There was another maybe an FF issue, but I never look for it.

Isn't this also the first Alex Ross

Yes, his first published work. His first Marvel work is in a bookshelf format book called Open Space I believe.

In additon to Burning Earth there's a 2-issue mini called All My Futures Past with some nice painted covers (not Ross, I don't think)

Don't have that series yet, but will be looking out for it. I wasn't able find a whole lot of information on the series, only found cover artist for issue #2 (Hannibal King)

Wow - that went cheap.

Continuing the adventure of Image newsstands that aren't terribly hard to find in the wild, I finally found a Wildstar newsie this weekend.

Vast majority of my Malibu books were purchased off the rack at 7-11 and were newstands.

I actually had some on the pull list long long ago

A few more Terminator pick-ups. Does anyone know why some of these issues had the "Approved by CCA" stamp and others didn't? I checked the cover gallery at (www.comics.org) and it looks like only Issues #8-#12 had the CCA stamp, the rest did not.

 

*Edit - Figured out NOW Comics was a late adopter of the CCA and didn't use it until Spring of 1989, which matches up with issue #8.

Answering my own question

You guys want to see a really rare modern comic?  Below is a really really rare modern comic that I just submitted to CGC.  It may be the only one.  It's also historically interesting as it led the NCAA to change their recruiting rules.  You can read about it in these Sports Illustrated articles:

Any real activity on Malibu NS? I see some for sale, crazy people with Mantra #8, but no sales.

Strangely enough, I just purchased a large lot of 90s comics and they were nearly all newsstand. I did have some Malibu NS, which I did not even know exist. 

Primarily, the lot was marvel and D.C. With some image and Malibu thrown in. 

If anyone is interested in pics, I can post em. Still going through the lot

On a side note, someone recently gave me 15 long boxes of 80s and 90s drek.  Mostly secret wars fillers and lots of image spec issues gone wrong. So basically, nothing of value. Except these two gems ?

Are you just goofing with the Vanilla Ice or do people legitimately want that?
