Father's Day.
On Father's Day,
this year,
someone stole my property,
broke it,
then lied about it.

So much for the Precious Gift,
and have a new unreconcileable, while you're at it.

The next day, I got my grades for 210518,

Here's a copy of [Clay Geerdes] Comix Wave, number 17,
with one of my favorite covers;
this, is a Comics & Comix newsstand copy, and..

However,

I will include the fact that
Kevin signed this on Bastille Day, twenty-twelve!

...into The Best of Two Worlds.
THIS IS A SIMPLE SHARE:
One evening in Berkeley long ago, I walked the tunnel to the inner sanctuum of The Best of Two Worlds.
Rory was working that night; I said something like "Hey. What's Up?", or "How's it goin'?", and it wasn't long before I saw this
SPACED #1
up on the wall. I immediately said, "Can I look at that...?", knowing full well that I would buy it, and I did. Rory was glad to see it forwarded, f'r sure!
I had been hunt
Seduction Of The Innocent 3-D #2, Eclipse Comics, 4/86, Special Edition, #55/100
...one of a kind.. so far.
This book is..
the only cgc'd,
the Special Edition:
(Printed in black and white for color blind readers).
I bought this from Eclipse Comics Publisher,
Cat Yronwoode, at the time;
it came through the mail via USPS
("It's a MIRACLE!").
This one graded 9.6, and
it is #55/100....
...with a Wrightson cover?
(I had a nightmare like that,
BUT
5 out of 10
is really good.
Ultimately, five out of ten is REALLY good.
I was pleasantly surprised to find
this submission of mine,
in which grades, that is, 2 - 9.4s, 3 - 9.6s, and 5 - 9.8s,
is.. really good, I think.
!Sheesh! I bought these when I was just twenty-one!
(NOPE. ...was not at a bar.)
and now,
well.. you do the math. That was 84.
By far, this was my favorite Judge Dredd cover
no word ballons,
has a black cover,
no Judge Dredd, him
