  1. Just completed a little more on my comic room. The orange paint is not as bright as the flash makes it out to be, it is much darker in person. This is one corner showing my bookshelf and a couple of movie posters. I took a picture with the flash off to show the new LED lights I installed in the case. Another corner. Close up of the book shelves. Last corner of the room Close up of Atari games.
  2. That is a great looking copy of that book. (thumbs u
  3. Glad to see people still interested in this thread. I will be back collecting these sometime soon. Just on a short break, I hope.
  4. Very nice books. (thumbs u I still need both of those.
  5. Oh and why would you think he WOULD file suit against anyone whom he feels is ruining his business and "public reputation," do you know him personally? Honestly how does Danny keep coming back on these boards? Unbelievable, isn't it?
  6. Nothing on the scan gives it away. Nice book. (thumbs u
  7. George, Those are my books. Long story short, my wife is losing her job (she is a research chemist for Pfizer) and, with a kid on the way, our finances will be getting very tight, so I am selling my entire set to shore up our finances and put us in a better situation. I was not planning on selling my collection until I was much older but life had other ideas. It was a thrill putting it togther and is bittersweet to watch them go. It is a complete run from 1-514 with all of the annuals and three of the Giant-Size issues. ComicLink will also be selling my TOS 49 and ST 120 and others. Casey, Really sad to see you selling your x-men.That is one sweet set. I have had to sell some sweet books(not by my choice) including action 2,superman 1,and showcase 4. I hope you will still be around. Best of luck Dennis I hope that whenever it comes time to sell my set sometime in the future, that it is half as nice as the one Casey is putting up. Maybe since the auction is in Feb. I will be able to snag one.
  8. Sad news Casey. I'm sure you guys will bounce back from this. Wish I had some extra spending money for some of the books, but my business is so slow right now that I can't buy anything for quite awhile.
  9. Welcome. Those are some nice books. It is a fun run to put together. Keep posting what you get.
  10. Just got this in the mail a few days ago from Lawrence, "topofthetotem". Pretty nice copy.

  12. Photos came out foggy for some reason, but here are two of my recent purchases.
  13. That is a stunning copy of #61. I would certainly slab that one.
  14. Notice the blue line coming out of Storms ankle and running into the flames. Some copies have it and some do not.
  15. Super nice books etanick. Job well done. (thumbs u I noticed that your 9.8 #113 does not have the blue line printing error by wolverines head. Congrats.
  16. Thanks guys. It will get better as time permits.
  17. I am just getting started on a room for my comics. It will take me awhile to get it how I want it, but these are a few photos of what I have thrown together so far. Far away shot of a spare bookcase we had. Top two shelves of bookcase. Bottom few shelves of bookcase Wall shelves with some #1's on top and some keys on bottom Recently found this in the back of a closet. I originally purchased this in a comic shop in San Antonio back when X-Men #1 was released. Original Spiderman movie poster that I have yet to hang up.
  18. No way for me. I am the collector known as Mr. shallow pockets. If I were to spend 50 grand on a book, I better be able to drive it or live in it, or my wife would kill me.
  19. Just got this one in yesterday. Thanks Michael. (thumbs u
  20. Wow. Great first book. (thumbs u Got any others?
  21. Glad to be of service. That book was Steve Borock's copy and was in my sig line for a long time. Enjoy. Leon.
  22. That is exactly what I was asking for in the Hot Flips thread. Thank you very much. Hot Flips should really use this on their web page. Would save on a lot of mistakes by crazy customers like me.
  23. Yea. I had to complete the 94-143 run first because those are the books I grew up reading.
