  1. Bought a nice slab of a book I lost years ago. Ygogolak was quick to communicate, and to very to the point. Quick shipping, packing was exceptional, and item was as advertised. Kudos.
  2. Absolutely love some of the Surfer Buscema covers, this one in particular. Did he do them all? Was thinking maybe Kirby did one?
  3. Love this Bernie cover.. It’s like DC lost its mind with the banner full of text and floating heads in a few titles of the early 70s. The Adams covers on Justice League in 70 and 71 and then Detective in 72. Not sure what they were thinking?
  4. I don’t collect Hawkman, but could not resist these at the 1/2 off back issue sale for around 6 bucks each.
  5. Gotta be an Adams, Frazetta, Wrightson, or Windsor-Smith. For me this one sets the stage for much of the darkness that followed.
  6. For my first board purchase I got a nice Conan 1 from Jimbo. Great guy to deal with in every regard. Was extremely personable and patient, sending extra pix and talked some Barry Windsor Smith. He even turned me on to Howard Pyle who was an influence on BWS artistic style. Book was well packaged and looked better than the photos. Thanks for the great book Jimbo!
  7. I grew up in about 20 min from Grissom Air Force Base in Kokomo Indiana. I never bought comics on the base, but in local shops in surrounding towns. I have a very modest collection, but a lot of the news stand issues I have from my childhood are Mark Jeweler; except my ASM 300 and NM 98 of course! They were not a thing back then, but it makes me wonder how many MJs I brushed by flipping through long boxes in grade school and Jr High.
