So the duck leaves. The next day the duck comes and asks, "Do you have any nails?" The bartender says, "No, of course not. Why would a bar have nails?" The duck then says, "Good.

  7. Some new books from Chicago. A few keepers and some fun low grade readers
  8. Very nice I agree the stories tend to be more interesting in the early issues, but the later ones have art by Samm Schwartz, which makes them worth picking up IMO.
  9. Just got this scarce 15 cent variant in the mail First Sabrina
  10. I'm very much looking forward to the new Archie newspaper strip books As an Archie completist, it's always been hard to know that there were many thousands of Bob Montana strips that I would likely never be able to read.
  11. Not my cup of tea but a pretty nice copy. This almost qualifies as a "Hello Pal" moment part deux. First appearance of the Blonde Phantom (sorta) and one of the toughest Millies to find. Congrats
