Hello all - It's been a year and a half since I last posted. Since that time, in my comics life, I've been mostly working on completing runs.
For larger titles, some times I pick a starting and/or ending point, instead of the complete run. So for Journey Into Mystery I started with #83 (the 1st Thor) and then went to the end.
For Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen, I just picked arbitrary issues to start with, 25 and 50, and then went to the end.
Earlier in life, I wanted every issue, like for Amazing Spider-man, Avengers, Fantastic Four. But I'm 61 now and I don't have the energy (and often, the money) to do that anymore. And practically anyway, it's impossible to get every issue of titles like Action or Detective (for Action I went #300 to the end, and for Detective it was 325 to the end, although I have a scattering of earlier issues).
Also when I get close to finishing a run I'm willing to pay more just to get it done. Like, for Liberty Meadows, I splurged on a CGC 9.8 copy for #1 since it was the last issue I needed. I did the same with Iron Fist 14, getting a decent CGC 5.0 copy.
Anyway, here are the titles I've completed since my last post in Feb 2022:
