  1. It was actually not there in the group that I bought and I might have kept it if it was. I actually didn't keep any, though it was very tempting. I may have missed out on issue 12, but that would have been the only one I didn't get from the group when I picked up the collection.
  2. Thread will be closing at 2pm Pacific Time and invoices will go out after that. Only the Squa Tront 1 (w/ issue 6 freebie) deal remains. Thank you to all that have picked up books here. It is appreciated.
  3. Thank you Comcav for taking away temptation. I was eyeing several of these last night and was going to take some this morning. I woke up and logged in and saw you Hoovered them all up. Nice pick ups there and some very cool issues.
  4. Flash sale .. take Squa Tront 1 and get Squa Tront 6 added in for free for the super low price of $100.
  5. Winner JRBaxter -Squa Tront 5. Had to update as Blazing Combat 1 was claimed by pm before the “take it”in the thread and I hadn’t seen it originally. Apologies for any confusion . These EC fanzines are incredibly cool and have some cool info and art in them. Plus the print runs on those first few issues is fairly low being in the 1000 -2000 range.
  6. And that is everything. I know it's a little outside of the normal comics that show up here but figured they were cool enough to offer up on the boards. I'll leave this up for a day to see if there is any interest. Thank you for looking .
