Axe Elf

Fingers crossed...

I put it on my watch list and he subsequently sent me an offer of $185, so I countered with an offer of $100 and said that he might find a fish to pay his price, but that this book in that condition wasn't worth more than $100. But he had seen the last auction so he basically laughed in my face. So thanks to @This is Who We Are who tipped me off to THIS ONE, I went with it instead. It was like $33 for the book and $44 for shipping from the UK (lol), and I hope it survives the international shipping journey, but for $77 landed, it suits both my budget and my need. So that completes my EERIE run, I just bought the Vampirellas, and I have like 7 more books to find to complete the CREEPY run--4 of which are sitting with a single seller right now. They're a little pricey, but that seller has offered me 20% off before, so I might end up pulling the trigger there. 2 more are sitting with another seller, but I don't really like him that much and I think he regularly overprices... but hey, it's worth a few bucks just to complete the run. I might get this all wrapped up by my birthday Thursday after all... EDIT: Almost forgot to include the link.

I dunno. If there is interest in seeing it, I'd be interested in sharing it, sure. But I already feel a little like an egomaniac posting a Gallery of all the CREEPYs 10 mags at a time--especially when they're not all the pretty slabbed NM copies that everyone covets. So I'd already been debating about posting the EERIEs, being as they are, on average, in even worse condition than the CREEPYs. From what I can tell of the photos and descriptions, most of the Vampirella run seems to be in better condition than the EERIES but not as good as the CREEPYs, overall. So there's probably more reason to post them than the EERIEs. But in either case, I guess the best reason to post them is if people want to see them, so let me know if you want Galleries for the EERIEs and VAMPIs too, or if I should just take my little ragtag collections and shut up while the adults collect professionally endorsed and encapsulated specimens. 'Cause I still feel very much like the newbie in the room here.

Somebody had to.

I did it. Evan Williams talked me into it.

This IS the Frazetta you're looking for...

Lemme try my fake I.D...

I feel the same way about comics. What's the use of a comic that's hermetically sealed? It's no longer a comic. It's a pretty rock; a commodity--and nothing more.
