  1. We're only interested in discussing Action #1s & pre-Robin Tecs around here!
  2. Cool Superman puzzle. I've been tempted to buy some of those old puzzles, but figure it's tough to find without a piece or two missing. Nice pickup! (thumbs u
  3. WOW, sweet TEC. Maybe my favorite TEC cover past issue 40. Too bad there weren't more GA Scarecrow covers.
  4. Sell me one at a huge discount? Seriously, jaw dropping group shot!
  5. Sweet assortment of WDCS books! I especially like issues 32, 44, & the Christmas themed covers you have. (thumbs u
  6. Very nice Action 11 Mike! You've added come beautiful early Actions to your collection in the past year or so.
  7. Great cover. I love the labels all over the cover detailing whats what. I used to do the same thing on my crude drawings as a kid. Cool stuff.
  8. Wow, that Supes #2 looks SO much nicer than a 4.0 in the photo. Just an awesome book.
  9. It's not easy to improve on your Pep group shot, but you certainly managed to do it.
  10. That's a real nice copy of Action 17. Gotta love those early Shuster covers. (thumbs u
  11. Wow, that TEC 29 is beautiful. Probably my favorite pre-Robin TEC. Wish I could find an affordable, restored copy.
  12. Sweet Pep 50! You don't see many Church Peps come to market. Great pickup.
  13. Definitely a classic cover. (thumbs u Have to put this issue on my want list.
  14. I think your bolded statement is one of the reasons for Invincible not having a larger following. It's easier for new readers to stick with characters like Spider-man & Batman that they are familiar with. However one of the great draws Invincible has IMO is the great NEW cast of characters feautured without 40 years of continuity confusion. I think the biggest way for Invincible to grow in sales is simply by word of mouth. It's how I got onboard. Now I always recommend new readers to go buy the first two TPBs, and after reading that story arc thery are sure to be hooked. Kevin Boyd makes a great point too about the successful TPB sales for Invincible. One reason may be all the "extras" they contain, plus the stories do read well this way. Hopefully Invincible will show some steady growth and keep the creative team for a loong time. (thumbs u
  15. Nice books PhiGam! I imagine some of those issues are tough to find in raw 9.8 worthy condition like #10 & 12.
  16. Sweet Tec 32, with a classic Batman story inside too. Great pickup!
  17. Are you asking me or Tec27Kid? I unfortunately don't have an Action 13, and it's been #1 on my want list for probably 6 years now. There have been a few copies available over the years, though I blew it each time and was unsuccesful securing a copy.
  18. Nice Action 18 Mike. Some of those non-Superman covers are fun to collect too. You seem to be getting lower & lower number Actions lately ... #41 ... #33 ... #18. So are you offically going for the whole 1-100 run now?
  19. I'm an Invincible fan as well, and I had similar thoughts about the book. I loved some of the earlier story arcs (such as 1-13, 19, 25-30, etc) but I haven't been as thrilled with some of the stories in the 40-50 range. I haven't picked up 52 yet, so I'm happy to hear some good buzz about it. (thumbs u
  20. Mike, what are you doing with such an early Action! We don't need any more competition for those books. Seriously, congratulations on a GREAT pickup. I like the Action 31 cover, and it looks like you got a really nice 6.0 copy.
