Pretty solid haul today from a trip out of town... everything was $3-$5 aside from the Gambit. And yes, I did pay $16 for it. I think my heart skipped a beat when I found it, I wonder if they misplaced the decimal lol. I can’t tell you how many times over the last 20 years I’ve considered paying big money for that book. This has to be my favorite find in a good while, I’ve wanted this book since I started collecting over 20 years ago.

I was thrilled to get the 1:10 variant for this weeks TMNT Urban Legends, which continues where the Image story left off in the late 90s. However, I had no idea they started doing 1:25 variants for that title... guess that’s another one I’m gonna have to hunt.

Picked these copies up recently for a steal.  Unfortunately, Venom #25 (Shannon Maer) has split corners on the spine but I love the cover art.

Quantum & Woody ASM #300 homage is going in with the rest of my homage collection.

That's amazing! Was this at a LCS or a big chain book store? I find it hard to believe a shop wouldn't know the value of the Batman book with the frenzy over Punchline.

It was at an LCS but I think it was a mistake on their part. It's one I don't go to very often as it's quite far away but me and a friend decided to hit up our 3 comic stores today so we did a round trip to all 3, we usually just go to the one which is the biggest but also the most on the ball with stuff that's happening in the comic world.

I say it was a mistake as this specific LCS sold out on Batman #89 on release day but this must have been on hold for a customer as the price sticker had a name on it, the person probably never came to get it and someone put it back in the box amoungst all the 3rd prints, I found this in a pile of 3rd printings all at the same price, this was the only first printing, so got lucky with this, it's already been sold though, I put it on Facebook and said give me an offer, few minutes later a guy said $50 so I took it :p I already have a copy anyway this was just really a means to let the hobby fund itself.

Well done! I've been thinking about visiting other shops in near by cities but Texas is a hot mess with Corona at the moment. O.o
