  1. Many thanks! Now I have to find out if Michael sends you the invoice or I do;) Have a lovely night!

  5. Phantom Lady appeared in August of 1941, in Police #1. She wasn't exactly "super" though, she did wear a mask.
  6. I'm just thrilled to see people actually MENTION female Super heroes, masked crusaders, etc:) It's nice:) I had no idea when I was a kid that there were females before Wonder Woman and Supergirl.
  7. I used to use Photobucket to embed large pictures in the description section on eBay. The last time I tried to do that, eBay was no longer allowing me to. Something changed in Jan where they don't seem to let you use the URLs. I don't do as much on eBay as I used to and when I do, I can upload from my computer. So that might work for me, EXCEPT, I already have dropbox and for the same price, they will hold more pictures plus my spreadsheets and they don't get broken all the time. The $99 one doesn't seem to have the fine unless support photobucket gives us now. Thanks, I made up my mind. Sept is download all my files month;)
  8. I haven't gotten it either, I'm just speculating. I've been paying for at least 7 years.
  9. Something about Wonder Woman and the #6;) right @G.A.tor?
  10. I don't know if anyone else collects these, but this issue is TOUGH, especially in decent condition at a somewhat reasonable price. I had it on my watch list on eBay for a few years, FINALLY completed my set. I was tempted to just buy the full set that is on eBay now, but didn't want to have to sell off the extras:)
  11. I think I wrote something about this after the Berk Auction. The Woman in Red is pretty much the first MASKED female Crimefighter. Fatomah was before her as a "Super" hero, although I agree she's not so super. We also had a female "Super hero" in Feature Funnies, she appeared in early 1941.. From Comic Vine A costumed heroine who only appeared in seven issues of Quality's FEATURE COMICS was USA the Spirit of Old Glory. She was a young girl who sat at the feet of Betsy Ross in 1777, excitedly watching the American Flag first come into being. She was given some of the remaining threads from the cloth that went into the very first Old Glory, and she put them for safekeeping into a locket kept around her neck. She ran out to tell her Uncle Sam about what she had watched, but in the rain she grew sick and in Uncle Sam's presence she died. Years later, an old man found the locket in a overgrown Philadelphia cemetary. When he opened the locket, USA, the Spirit of Old Glory came to life again to protect her country. The heroine was a young woman who had no secret identity, even when she donned an army uniform to investigate trouble at an army base or when she joined other ladies who worked in a munitions plant. She wore a brief blue outfit and blue boots. Her cape, the American flag, gave the power of flight, repelled bullets, and fluttered to warn her when the country was in danger. She carried a gold torch that used beams of light and energy to reveal things, clobber the bad guys and in one story melt metel. Her short career in pre-war America was taken up in battling sabetours who meant to destroy her defenses and prey on the people. Her stories were drawn by Maurice Gutwirth. USA was one of the earliest Super Heroines in Comics and certainly the first one to use a flag as part of her costume. Fantomah appeared in Jungle Comics #2 (Feb. 1940), Peggy Allen( the woman in Red) was published in March of 1940 (in Thrilling comics #2) and Hawkgirl was in All Star 5, in July of 1941. All Star 8, was not published until December 1941. This is the first appearance of the Woman in Red
  12. Me, too. I have too many vacation pictures to move and I'm "grandfathered" in till Oct. However, I've slowly been putting my stuff on dropbox, my husband pays for that anyway for his business, and if the price does not go down, I'll spend Sept moving the rest. This was a dumb move on their part, if they had just said $99 to begin with, I probably would have grimaced, but done it. The $399 was just insulting.
  13. Thanks for all the purchases so far, I'd love to sell a few more. Take 10% off any book, IF this is your first purchase (in any of the threads for the past month) Take 15 20% off if you have made a purchase from me in the past month OR if you are buying 3 books or more, and thank you!
