  1. Oh, I don't know. Could be Millie. Or Two Gun Kid in his underpants.
  2. Yeah, I play that low bid game a lot. I don't often win, but when I do it makes me feel special.
  3. This is definitely printed. I pick these up whenever I see them cheap enough. 99p fits that category.
  4. Got these the other day - Great back cover on this one -
  5. Got this the other day - Looks like a sticker, but it's a UKPPV!
  6. This turned up the other day - Didn't know there was a UKPPV of this.
  7. Picked this up for pocket change - And, despite the instructions, 100% un-crayoned.
  8. Another random Four Colour pence pick-up -
  9. Published by Novedades Editores, S.A. in Mexico. Quite a long run... https://www.comics.org/issue/412101/
  10. Yep. Even in their hayday (bronze Marvel) you struggle to make a full set of anything.
  11. My first SA Marvel Western - Nice copy, too.
  12. Cheap little lot I bagged the other day - And my first SA Marvel Western -
  13. Stick a couple of episodes of Archer in it. You'll thank me for it later.
  14. You're on your own, Velma. I've got contractors to wrangle, giant holes to not fall into, lost items to magic out of thin air and a building to watch being demolished. And that's before messing about with comic books. Which is before dinner. Which is what I'm counting the bloody seconds to. Watch a couple of episodes of Archer. If that doesn't relieve the boredom, you're beyond my expertise.
  15. Who's to say. They might have started at 4 just to be enigmatic. It makes as much sense as binding all that chuff together.
  16. As the dancing banana implies, Daphne is a happy bunny. And only 13 quid for the lot. Nice copies,too.
  17. That's just odd. I used to work for Stateside Comics PLC, many, many moons ago. Can't imagine why anyone would spend the money to bind such a random assortment of mid to low grade comics in such a nice outer cover. Maybe someone was taking a class in bookbinding & it was a workshop project.
  18. I blame Superboy myself. I agree with your lack of enthusiasm and I think it stems from a general lack of interest in those Bronze DC titles. When I were young, I had less than no interest in Teen Titans. Why would I when there were the X-men to collect? I know I'll get some people riled when I say that DC has always seemed waaay too tame to me, especially when I was young and impressionable. Jimmy Olsen? I wanted to kick his arse! The Punisher, though, he was dangerous. And Werewolf by Night? Scary stuff. I love the DC horror stuff & some of the more oddball things like Plop, but I just cannot get a fire lit for the likes of Arak Son of Thunder. This, on the other hand, I will always want multiple copies of. Partly because of the random-ness of those 5p outliers. The world is truly a strange place, full of amazing and interesting things. Most of which are comic books, or comic book related.
