Or Completing a Set

In my last journal I mentioned the character that got me into comic books. As soon as I started collecting CGC graded copies of The New Mutants, there was a few other series I wanted to collect. Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars, Longshot, and Magik were the others. I finished the Longshot series and even had them signed. Secret Wars still has four issues to go. Of course, four out of twelve is still 33.333%. The New Mutants is a bit more complicated, but I am so very close.

On eBay I have a save list dedicated to what I am searching for. I can now take one line off of that list. Of course it might be like Hydra; take one off and two will appear. It took over five years, three of constant searching, for me to finally take Magik issue three off the list of CGC graded comic books I needed. This will throw me to the top of the list of another set of comics that helped solidify my collecting habits.

It is also the first CGC graded comic book I purchased all year. That will end at ECCC since there will be one more I plan to purchase, and then there will be a few books I get signed before having them pressed and graded. I can't do what I did in years past. But I hope with whatever I do going forward will have a more enjoyable outcome.

Thanks for reading
