Ok boardies, that's all I got shot today so that's the last book of the night. I'll be here a bit cleaning up takes and marking solds, so please do threadkrap away! 15 more books to come, hopefully tomorrow, mostly Avengers and FF, and a couple odds and ends. Mostly silver, some bronze, some keys in the mix.

Aww i was here for the FF! Let us know what time tomorrow?

I love having a T1 line and time to think, however briefly, on stuff. That book was definitely a toss up though. Nice snag Sushi!

If you're sure, thank you! If you really only wanted 112, let me know and we will reverse it.

If you don't mind, can I just switch it for the DD11? Wow that's service (and yes I know the DD is a tad more).

JIM 121 sold to Jginsberg79! Thank you again! 

I absolutely read it as 112 but I'll take it too! :-)

DD 10 and a coverless TTA 65 to boot! Jginsberg79 is on the boards with a win! Thank you! 

I'm just here for the fun :-) Hope my banter is keeping the thread a teenie bit lighter!

Here's a coverless copy of Tales to Astonish #65, free to any buyer. Just claim.

Claim cause why not!

I'm drunk on power and bourbon. What a time to be alive.

Claim DD 10

Promising Marvel and starting with WW...that's a paddlin.

Ok, you win! Here I come now!

Is this going to be a be careful what I wish for scenario?

OK, that's it for the Kiddie Matinee. From here on out, the rest of the thread (currently at 31 more books to come) is mostly Marvel with a couple Wonder Womans and a Green Lantern. It's mostly silver age material, with a few bronze Marvels. Yes, there will be keys in there. Not the top tier, DD1 and earlier type keys, but keys.

We demand TRIBUTE! I was told 10PM (I'm clearly kidding but am excited!)

Thank you; not sure yet but I will update. Probably 10pm EST-ish. More Thors coming for sure, and a Hulk. Not not sure which night. More than one night's worth of books still coming. (Maybe 50 more). Not too many of those other titles in this batch, but there's FF, Daredevil, Avengers, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, maybe Captain Marvel if I can read the run quickly enough.

FF and Daredevil? I'm now excited (feel my nipples). I NEED FF reader copies like whoa.

@Unstoppablejayd @Jginsberg79 You guys are too kind; thank you both! I shall endeavor to deliver. I keep thinking I can do a matinee offering, but I never seem to get to it! Reality is 10 pm EST is about as early as I get, but if I can ever pull off an unexpected addition in daytime, I will!

About these books: Most of this box came in a trade when I dealt away a large modern collection I didn't really want. An LCS near me does not do back issues so he calls me when he gets offers of old books-- found my Sensation 12, CDNP 46, others thanks to this guy -- So, when he called and said one of his regulars needed to sell his collection of back issues, even though it was modern, I took it to help out his guy. (He and the customer went to high school together!) So I then traded a lot of them for some lower grade Silver; I swapped out and upgraded where I could so some of these are previous undercopies. But that's how these got here.

Can't wait! Flash, Xmen, Superman, IH, IM, Thor, ASM...I'm not that discerning on these grades. I just want some new stuff to read! Excited to see what's coming. As I have two small kids, do you know what time you may start? Easier to plan for me. If not, I can have missed-buyers remorse and catchup!

Friendly hint for @Readcomix threads..he is a night owl... so look for late night listings of mid to low grade goodness!! Bought lots of books from Gene, one of the best!

That's a good tip. I shall ease into the bourbon then so as not to fast forward through the evening to bed :-) Thank you Unstoppablejayd and can't wait. Jim, Roy and others have made this a lot of fun. Excited for the Gene jam!

OK, thread is now caught up from last night... apologies to @WASM and @Jginsberg79 but Western Gunfighters #1 and Thor #193/Iron Man #8 had already been taken; sorry I had not been able to update the thread quickly enough. 

Lots more still to come!

No worries! These threads are fun and missing an issue or two isn't that devastating! I'll be sure to look closer and pray to the bin gods for more IM, X-Men and IH!

Take IM 8, Thor 193. I accept this tithe to the reader gods of nonslabbed books in their natural state as God intended!

Ninja edit: And just saw they're both taken. By Lucifer's beard! I shall await the next offering....

Hey all! Name is Josh and work in tech. Getting back into this crazy hobby after losing 8-9 boxes in a house flood 12 years ago. Already have some great purchases and experiences on here! I read a lot of different things and always love recommendations. From Battlechasers ( him for not finishing the series!) to Nailbiters to Mage to Bone to Supes to Wolverine, I'll try anything. 

Thanks for having me!

Beautiful book and I'm jealous. Not....quite....worth my marriage!

I dont have as long a tenure as you (only about 8 yrs) but I certainly see the change as well.  Still... every now and again we get one of these fun threads filled with banter and great books (Dale Roberts Christmas sales every yr, octobers big sales threads, and this one).

Many thanks for the stack of books this time around Roy.  Looking forward to the next one.  

I have no tenure but this is the most fun I've had buying comics since my return to the hobby after a flood. I hope my comments were all taken as intended which was joking and fun! I hope I can get to know many of you and have some fun trades, buys, advice and chatter. Thank you Roy for hosting!

I'll take ASM 61 and 141.
