  1. I'm entertained by the live auctions on Facebook. A shop that is fairly local to me has live auctions and I am amazed at the prices they get for books which I consider drek. They do also have some good books, but they get sky high prices for them, as well. I know when I talked to the shop owner they mentioned that they seem to get people late at night who have been drinking bidding high on their auctions, but they seem to honor their bids mostly. This particular shop does a good job of keeping the auctions fun and creating almost a sense of community with the people who "tune in" to their live broadcasts, so I think that plays into it, but man, some of the prices they are getting for junk books is just mind blowing!

    Spain

    The seller I bought it from labeled it as being from Argentina, but in the indicia, you can see that it was published in Spain. However, also printed inside is the information about the importer from Argentina. I would have thought something like that might have been stamped inside (like the stamp on the front cover), but it is printed inside. Weird. Figured this will be the closest I ever come to owning a Vampirella #1.

    Pulling from the wikia, which is not a perfect source, it says "the return of Binary". Sounds like someone posted something on social media unaware of her first appearance.

    According to the Carol Danvers Wikipedia page, Danvers lost the Binary powers after Operation: Galactic Storm. 

    In the wikipedia entry for the Infinity story, it says Danvers "temporarily regained her binary powers as she drew near a black hole."

    Doesn't sound like something worth paying much for.
