  1. And, more importantly, Four Color #1354. I don't think it's actually a particularly hard to find issue, but there's definitely something of an aura about it as the end of an era:
  2. Two in today. First up, the last Four Color issue of Walt Disney's Zorro I needed. Not that I have any of the pre-Disney Zorro 4C's yet. I hadn't bothered with this one before because unlike the other six, Toth didn't do any art in this one:
  3. In today. The next to last issue I need for all the Kurtzman Little Annie Fanny strips:
  4. And, fresh in the mail today. May I get my club membership upgraded to international status?
  5. In today, a huge thank you to @Surfing Alien for pointing it out to me on the bay:
  6. I do enjoy seeing how creative they had to get to find a spot where the pence price would be visible
  7. That book hasn't been run of the mill for several years, as far as I know. I would agree that "Key" isn't the right word, and "Classic Cover" is more appropriate. I won't even argue if you say you think it shouldn't be a classic cover, just that enough people think it is to drive up the value.
  8. I remember when Dark Horse first released the tiny books of Lone Wolf & Cub. I bought the first one to see what the big deal was, but knew there was no way I was going to read through all 28 volumes. By about book #8 it was on the top of my reading pile every month all the way to the end. I should dig them out and re-read them one of these days.
  9. I've probably shown this one before, but since we're talking Goodman magazines:
  10. If you think that's bad, you should see my collection of Ace D-S-G books. Here's a couple of the worst examples: The original, the school book club edition, and the later reprint. Or, since those are all at least semi-distinct, these two, where the only difference at all is the number:
  11. I love the original Pinocchio with the Walt Kelly artwork. It's one of the very few times when an animator who worked on the movie then did the comic adaptation; Kelly was one of the animators on the scenes inside the whale.
  12. Volume 1, #5, which is now my earliest issue. My collection is really spotty for the first 5 1/2 years of the title... and nearly complete from Summer 1945 onward.
  13. Today's books, the Daffy and the Daisy & Donald are pretty trashed but the others are pretty nice:
  14. Welcome to the club! Be warned, they're quite addictive if you're not careful!
  15. That's very impressive. But I could also see that looking like an absolute steal a few years from now, as well.
  16. Corben was doing underground comix concurrently with his early Warren stuff. This came out about an year later, for instance:
  17. I'm generally highly skeptical of any club that would have me as a member, but... The Mandrake was in fact picked up from the dollar bin a few weeks ago:
