  1. Congrats on some great books Sean And for making a convert of your wife Thanks. And the redhead is the girlfriend. The only converting the wife did was herself into a single lady about two years ago. I'm much happier now and I have a gf that likes comics. Woot!
  2. Not likely. I just checked and there's a 7.0 out there. The bottom edge on this copy probably keeps it under that.
  3. I didn't realize WR #3 was so scarce. Robert and I had an interesting and near heated discussion as to the price for all three books. It was actually quite fun since I think we were both aware of the game we were playing and in the end we made a deal. I paid dearly, but not quite the 3X guide at which he had priced them.
  4. I purchased it from Robert Beerbohm - BLB Comics. He had about five of them in his Archie box. I'm sure he still has at least one or two left.
  5. I can't believe this thread fell to page 3! My lone Wondercon FH purchase:
  6. Purchased at Wondercon last weekend. Apparently, these were sold to the dealer by the daughter of the original owner after the OO passed away recently. There's some folds and other faults but the covers are glossy and the spines in great shape. These are now the highest grade Baker romances in my collection.
  7. Wondercon 2001 purchases: The girlfriend spotted the Miss Beverly Hills of Hollywood #1 and fell in love with it immediately. We looked at the others the dealer had and walked away with the two best. She now wants the rest of the run. That makes me happy after being married to someone who would never in a million years get near a comic con and who hated comics. IIRC, the Wartime Romances were purchased by a woman in the 1950s and then sold to the dealer by her daughter after she passed away recently. About as close to OO as I think I could get.
  8. I still have my copy of Greyhawk and the original box set of rules, but no character sheets or any other D&D stuff.
  9. I predict this marriage is going to end with either divorce or murder.
  10. Is that the copy just sold on Heritage that I forgot to bid on?
  11. Yes. I have about six drawer boxes and I love them. They're pricey, but worth it.
  12. I'm a big Hunter Thompson fan also. If you haven't read his political stuff, check it out. He was onto Nixon way before Watergate exploded. My reading lately has been Objective C and iPhone programming books, as well as "Head First SQL." I've got a comic book want list app that's going to be submitted to Apple shortly. My artist delivered some great icon art last night.
  13. Sivana cover Sivana must've been having an off day if he though a blimp would make a good escape vehicle. A blimp with his name plastered on the side.
  14. Did I mention how much I love this book? Is Shark wearing a mini-skirt, MrBedrock? No wonder Brodie has to be the toughest fighter in the South Seas! ...Or is that Kinks Mason on the cover? Teasing aside, that's a beauty, alanna. A super Lou Fine cover on a HG Mile High pedigree. It doesn't get better than that! (thumbs u I imagine if you are strong enough to stop a speeding car while machine gun bullets bounce off of you you can wear anything you want to. Who's going to laugh? I'm pretty sure that those bullets are bouncing off the front of the sedan, away from Shark, but I'll give Brodie big points for nerves of steel and strength! He's tough (in grade, too), no doubt about that. Hey, he can wear a mini if he wants too with no beef from me! (thumbs u That's not Shark Brodie. Shark hung out in the South Pacific with a hula honey.
  15. Without Mad Men or Walking Dead, Sunday nights seem pale and bleak.
  16. Since Carl in the TV series has been watered down, I'm wondering if Lori will be the one to put a bullet into Shane.
  17. Heritage has been lightening scans for years. I'm not surprised at the difference between "ad" and "reality."
  18. Shouldn't Four Color 666 have been Satan Claus? Dell refused to join the comics code. They could have done it...
  19. You get many requests from people to let them touch your junk?
  20. This deserves some picto-graphic evidence methinks I was going to say that! Why not the last Fight purchase? (And, btw, I'm officially done with Jumbos for a while. I bought a 70 in slightly lower grade than I wanted to fill the hole in the Sky Girl run. When I get off my , I'll post a group shot of 68-130.)
  21. Baker pencils, but probably not inks is my thought. The way Wambi is standing is either Baker or someone influenced by him.
  22. I think that's an icepick. IIRC, Kaanga and Ann were about to sit down for cocktails afer a long day of slaying evil slave traders when the gorilla burst in causing Kaanga to accidentally pour way too much vermouth into the gin, thus ruining the entire pitcher of Martinis. Kaanga grabbed the ice pick to exact the appropriate revenge. It's a lesser-known plot device for Jungle Comics, but a classic nonetheless.
  23. Nice Jumbo collection! Wanna sell me that 70? As part payment for your #31? um... er... No. According to PGX, that 31 has slight color touch. You wouldn't want something like that stinking up your purdy collection. Also, after looking at your post, I want a 46 and to find a nice 51. Jumbo 51 seems to be a difficult book to find in mid-high grade.
