Collectibly MAD Book. 1995 by my good friend Grant Geissman. Grant is the connsumate MAD and EC authority. He went to NY and met extensively with Bill Gaines to put this wonderful volume out.

A 20 year grail has been completed! I have wanted this pin since the first time ever saw it. One of the most colorful and graphic of all premium pins. Trouble is, it is very rare. Hake's has had only a few in all the years they have been around and it always went WAY over what I wanted to pay. A week ago, one popped up on the bay in the comic book section. I figured most of you comic book guys didn't know better or cared. So I sat there watching it sit with one bid. Last day, I punched in a HUGE number at the end and ending up getting it for a song. Gotta have patience if you collect stuff like this. So stoked!

Exactly. I have quite a few ACGs. But very spotty. There are a few real good ones but the covers and stories have always left me flat. I pick them up when they turn up cheap and I don’t have them. Stars are the same way for me. Great LB Cole covers but rather weak inside other than the occasional Disbrow story. Other than those two titles, I am pretty complete PCH wise.

Your wife ever go in there Mike? My wife would have a heart attack!

Axmen gets the Dope Slaves. Great bargain copy, you will love it. Thank you sir!

Oh, man, the best yet! You're killing me!

n2wdw grabs a little Junior/Sunny GGA. Thanks Mike, you will LOVE this!

It don’t much more purple and pink than this. (sorry for the cross post but I love this one)..,

Mailman brought me this Bernard Bailey beauty today. Funny, but I don’t think I have ever seen another one. Cool helicopter cover to boot!

Welcome back Jimmers. That is one of my favorites too!

I got the one I posted without the cape from a box on the ground early in the morning for $85. I couldn’t whip the money out fast enough. That being said, although cool as hell, there are plenty of them around. Several thousand unless mint and complete with the plain un-marked box seems like a stretch to me...
