  1. Meet Merton 2 VG - $65 SOLD – Cute GGA art class theme. 1” upper spine split, short tear top cover, some smaller pieces missing there. Otherwise a nice flat and glossy copy of a desirable book.
  2. Tarzan #75 VF+ $50 Not a problem with this book. Lovely. Me Tarzan, you buy.
  3. Captain Easy #11 VG $40 SOLD VIA PM Nice GGA cover here. Spine has some holes and a small split bottom. Staples are rusty, bottom popped from front only, top soon to be the same. Still a nice presenting issue of a not-so-common book. Great 30’s style art inside.
  4. Captain Easy #16 FN $40 SOLD VIA PM Pretty solid book here, nice with great interior. Book was miscut so the spine doesn’t allow the back to align. Still, great book with some nice 30’s GGA art in it.
  5. Wings Comics #107 VF $160 SOLD VIA PM Excellent copy with some writing on cover. Nice book!
  6. Wings Comics #88 FN $100 SOLD Exceptional Lubbers GGA cover, it’s got it all. Writing on cover, piece out top spine on cover, edge tears cover. Otherwise this is a solid book. Don’t miss out!
  7. Fight Comics #48 FN $90 SOLD @ 50% OFF Another great book with Baker and Renee art (Senorita Rio!!) . This one's only issues are a small hole upper spine, a small piece missing back, and tape back cover (interior/exterior). Solid flat issue otherwise with white/off-white pages. Solid centerfold.
  8. Junior Comics #10 *Qualified* $350 SOLD VIA PM Would be VG if not for the missing physical page 20/21(torn out) which affects the 2nd to last story. There is also some scotch tape on cover over staples. Still, it’s Junior with a great GGA cover…don’t wait!
  9. Humbug #7 – VG/FN $60 SOLD VIA PM Although from 1958, I think this cover is very relevant to our times. Also, relevant to drone operators. Anyway, this is a cool Mad Magazine-like book that is comic-sized. 1" upper spine split. Otherwise, solid. Seen the book for much more other places.
  10. Kellogg's Funny Jungleland Moving pictures – VG $40 SOLD This is quite an oddity. Most "comics" from this time (1909, Platinum Age) aren't even close to a modern format, but this one is. It's about the same width of a GA book, and about 1" shorter. It's also neat because of it's unique pages. It's hard to describe, but the interior pages are cut multiple times horizontally so you can change and swap the scene/clothing in many different ways. The book does have some tape and one edge as a long spine split. Still a very stable and fun book that looks great in any collection.
  11. Rangers #64- FN - $150 SOLD!!! Cool Feb 22 1952 Date Stamp! Fantastic Firehair cover by Whitman. This book is solid. Flat & Glossy with white pages. Just a few edge tears and some light tanning to mention.
  12. Fight Comics #25 - VG $100 SOLD VIA PM Nice early Fight. Single staple issue, reattached and reinforced, holding by rear cover. Otherwise, this books is flat and nice. Great mid-war (1943) cover. Don't miss out on this one!
  13. Liberty Comics #11 - FN- $65 SOLD ENUENDO COVER? You tell me? Unusual book, nice and flat book, light rust on staples with light migration. Slightly loose Cf. How could you not love this book? Excellent Suzie story inside with lots of great GGA.
  14. Key Comics #1 - Qualified GD+ $100 SOLD @ 50% OFF Great GGA cover!! Spine is a bit rough but stable (-the ink is chipping - not paper wear per se), 1-1/4" upper spine split. CF missing. That's why it's cheap. Marry it and make a better book (or just enjoy it for years like I have as-is)
  15. Young King Cole Vol 1. #1 - FN- $275 Awesome crime noir cover for the debut issue. Pretty nice overall. Tight staples with rust but no migration. Flat with almost white pages. Glossy cover with great color. Don't pass up this beaut!
  16. Young King Cole Vol 3. #3 - VG+ $125 SOLD @ 50% OFF Overall nice book with the only real issue being a very short tear mid spine (cover only). Staples are holding, but top staple is popped from front. Solid interior. COOL COVER!
  17. Young King Cole Vol 3. #4 – VG+ $40 SOLD Great colors on this one! Flat book Cover is detached. Solid interior though and the cover art is, well, the dog's bollocks. Like a delete scene from Indiana Jones.
  18. Young King Cole Vol 3. #12 – VG- $40 Last issue of the title! Solid book with some edge tears rear cover. Tight staples with lite rust on the bottom, no migration. The biggest issue is the 2" tear under the "Y". It is confined to cover only and does not go through the book.
  19. Daredevil #47 - VG+ $125 SOLD @ 50% OFF Attempted Suicide cover. Good flat book here. Staples pulling. Small upper/lower spine split. Great interior PQ. Pretty tough art inside depicting domestic violence.
  20. Hi Folks, it’s been a while! It took me a while to recover from my legendary "End Of The Planet (Comics) Sale" back in '17, but I’m back, sort of. Selling a small stack of books to help fund new pressing equipment for my business, Flatland Pressing (ask Rick if you need a reference). Anyway, I’m a little rusty at these sales threads, but let’s see if I can’t summon some of my old Mojo and run a good one! This sale will have a little bit of everything, with a few surprises for those who stick around to the end. Why: (I'm selling them) Gotta buy some new pressing gear and that stuff is not cheap! So I'm happy to entertain any and all offers, but with prices like these, I wouldn't wait too long before pulling the trigger. How: (you can buy them) First : (icon, words, implied meaning, wink, nudge) posted publicly or privately wins over any PM negotiations that haven't been sealed with "it's a deal". Them's the rules. Who: (can't buy them) No Shady characters please. This includes: Hall of Shamers, Probies, Intergalactic Dictators, or Chicago parking police (I'm flexible on that last one...) When: (you pay, you get comics) Shipping is $4 flat for any group of singles up to 7, $1/book thereafter. First class shipping for up to 2 books, Media mail for 3 or more for all others. Priority (extra $5) & insurance optional as well. (about $5/book or bundle) Payment via Paypal only please. Int'l shipping will be actual cost. Returns accepted within 7 days of receipt of book. Ok, let’s get started!
  21. Jim picked up a good group of my beloved Planets. He was super easy to deal with and made lightening-fast payment. Can't ask for more than that! Thanks Jim!
  22. Shane snagged one of my beloved Planets from me. Was super friendly and made payment within minutes of my invoice. Can't ask for more than that! Thanks buddy!
  23. Ok folks, that's a wrap. What a ride! I hope it was as entertaining for you as it was for me. I must say, selling them was (almost) as fun as buying them, but alas, I will have to ship them out soon and that will hurt a bit. (cue empathy) This community is great and I've always come here first. In fact, I've bought more than half of my various collections here over the years. You just can't beat buying from trusted friends. While I have a few more books to sell over the next few months (don't get excited, they aren't too remarkable), I'm nominally no longer a comic collector. It's hard to say that as I've been one, off and on, for decades. The decision to sell now wasn't just to help out with a house, but more a personal decision to focus on other things for the second half. I had more fun than I should admit tracking down these books, and then putting together one-by-one to suit my tastes. It's been gratifying beyond-words that all of you share the admiration I have for these books. I'm happy they are all going to friends, new and old. Invoices will go out tomorrow morning, and shipping will begin on Wednesday and Thursday. Please check your invoices to make sure that I've got you down for the right books. I've done well to keep things organized, but more eyes are always a help. Anyway, as I said before, thank you all for the well-wishes, concern, advice, and of course, purchases. I just told my wife that we'll be able to afford a downpayment on a house in the spring and she started crying. Couldn't have done that without everyone's support these past few days. Thank you for making this sale successful, but more than that, memorable. What a great way to go out!
