Popular Post Jesse-Lee Posted September 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) Threw down a $9 impulse bid on a local auction site to win these. Mid to lower grade, but at that price I shouldn't lose money. Plus the Star Wars are pretty cool and the Batman is the first appearance of Lucius Fox.

Popular Post F For Fake Posted September 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2020 Went down to the lake with the missus for the holiday weekend. Made a trip into town, she stopped in Tuesday Morning and Ross, while I visited 2nd & Charles. Comics are Buy 5 Get 5 Free, which is good if you can find at least 10 that you want! I left with a stack. Most were .95, a handful were $2 and a couple $3. I think it averaged out to about 70 cents a book, which I could live with. Nothing life changing, but I'm good with what I dug up. I've now been able to put together a 40+ issue run of Sandman over the last two weeks for less than a buck a book, so I'm happy with that. Also picked up a stack of Milestones books, though no Static, as you might except. Was surprised to find this run of Alan Moore Supremes, which is most of the run. These aren't very expensive, but it's a terrific run, and I don't find it in bargain bins very often. All in all a fun way to kill an hour or so while the wife looked at purses or shoes or whatever it is she spends her money on. I'll have to ask her one day!

I was happy to find what looks like NM copy of that in my LCS bargain basement recently! Always fun paying $1 for a book with a cover price of $3.95 If I'd just waited until now to buy all my 90s comic books I could have saved a fortune!

They actually had four, but I thought "Eh, I've already got a couple of these at home, how many do I really need?" Well, in many cases, that philosophy would be correct, but of course there are exceptions! I had a complete run of Sandman that I put together in the 90's, which I should have held onto based on prices for some issues. Most of the run from 30's through the end are inexpensive, but the first 10 or so (as well as 22) have popped a lot lately due to Netflix show news. I recall buying my #1 & #8 a my local shop back in the 90's, I think I paid about $60 for the 1 and maybe $30 for the 8? Definitely not going to find them for that price nowadays. So, you win some, you lose some! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed Moore's run on Supreme too, especially the early issues It's a shame he never got to finish 1963, but I guess what he did with Supreme is a way to see where he was going to go with it...

Yes, I had high hopes for 1963 as well, I guess it is what it is. Still seems odd that he was slumming with Image, but I guess that speaks to the deterioration of his relationship with DC and Marvel at the time. Loved his Supreme run as well as WildCATS. Both are so much better than they have any right to be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the annual would have pulled it together? I didn't know he wrote Wildcats, I will have to check those out! It's a shame he won't work with Marvel/DC, can you imagine the great stories he would have done? F For Fake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Readcomix Posted September 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2020 I've always loved the Alley Oop strip but never picked up a comic, the FF50 is an upgrade, the coverless is All-Select Comics #7, the OA is from a Cheryl Blossom story by Dan Parent; the Young Men 25 is not a JC Penney reprint, the Best of the West #28 is a reprint of Tim Holt #30, the issue thought to inspire the Zodiac Killer (turns out the reprint is no easier to find than the original)...oh, and Matt Baker! comicdonna, Ken Aldred, nepatkm and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
