A big thank you to my Secret Santa (whom I think is Enrico?) for gifting me this great Marvel Visionaries book on the legendary John Buscema! Love the selection of book excerpts included in this anthology, especially the ones going back to the late 40s/early 50s.  Merry Christmas everyone!

Glad you like it  

Unfortunately it seems the Canadian post still doesn't like me, because you 2nd package didn't arrive in time 
 I really hope it will be delivered within the next few days. 

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everybody.
 

I have opened my secret santa packages with the kids - and it was so   - really love it.

Will post pictures soon

Always fun to see what everyone got and to thank the senders for their thoughtfulness. 

I got some books I've never owned from Aaron (guldanaaron1). Interesting reading upcoming! 

[thirdgreenham]

I got this wonderful book by Jeff Lemire, Essex County. I’m really looking forward to it!  
thank you, Secret Santa!!  

(although, you’re not supposed to be secret anymore, when the present is opened...  ) 

Happy Holidays!

To follow up:

Merry Christmas everyone!

Just wanted to let my fellow "boardies" know that I finally opened the gift from my Secret Santa yesterday who happened to be thirdgreenham himself!!!!

My apologies for the delay...my wife had a massive heart attack on the evening of Monday December 16th, they can't figure out how she survived a 100% blockage of the "widow-maker" artery. She is now the proud owner of a "full metal jacket" in her heart and is now home resting. So it's been a whirlwind two weeks...when i get a chance I will upload photos of the comics.

Thirdgreenham sent me a pile of Bronze Age Batman comics that look like he went through Doom's time platform to purchase them new off the shelf in the 1970's then immediately return to our time...fantastic assortment of BATMANs indeed! Thank you so much for the BATMAN comics...I would have never expected such an awesome gift like this, you have far surpassed my expectations

So glad that your wife has made it past that horrible event! Hopefully she recovers quickly and completely and you can get back to your normal lives! Take care and be well, both of you!

That is absolutely a Christmas miracle. I learned all about the widow maker this summer when I had 4 stints put in and they discovered mine was 75% blocked. 

Im glad she's ok now.
