  1. Congratulations, that's great! It's a fantastic book and I'm sure you'll enjoy your new copy!
  2. Wow, that's pretty impressive!!! I still need WAY too many, but I'm patient and have time, so hopefully they'll show up slow enough that I can afford them when they do.
  3. FF battle Super-Skrull to Thor battles Super-Skrull.
  4. Thanks Lou!!! I'm still looking for an extremely high grade copy, but this one fits the bill for now
  5. Double DD .... so quadruple D?!?!? I'm not even sure you could carry them around!!! Seriously awesome set you've got there!!!
  6. First Black Panther appearance to first Skrulls appearance.
  7. That's an awesome story! I have a similar attachment to this issue. The company I was painting for at the time usually hired some college students for part time summer help. It was 1985 and I had just started collecting comics again. One of the summer help guys was working with me, we got to talking and my collecting comics came up. He mentioned he had some at his mom's house and that he didn't do anything with them any more. I told him if he wanted to sell them, I'd be interested. A few days later he brought them in .... about 40-50 books as I recall, all Bronze Age except 3 Silver Age books: Amazing Spider-Man #17, Fantastic Four #55 & #61. I asked how much, he said $20 and I nearly dislocated my shoulder getting my wallet out!!! The only book of those that I still have is the Spidey, but I have since reacquired the FFs. Ever since then, those 3 comics have held a special place in my heart!!! Here's the Spidey!
  8. Such a tragic loss. SO young and was such an inspiration to so many. Rest in peace.
  9. "The Batman" ad from Detective #26 to "The Batman" ad from Adventure #37!!!
  10. I'd have to agree that from his vantage point, it would certainly feel like all of humanity is lost!!! Yeah, some of these books get a bit pricey! Sometimes ya get lucky though.
  11. Thanks so much! It makes me very happy to see other collectors digging these books too!!! You're right, this is Roo's big cover appearance!!! Roo has apparently gotten the attention of some of the locals and appears to be attempting to communicate with them! I wonder how that will turn out????
  12. Thanks! I am SO glad that someone besides me enjoys them too!!!
