It really HAS been a spendy week

Almost forgot about this! One of my favorite (of the few dozen) comics I bought off the stands as a kid.

That's one of mine too for the same reason.

I had the *dream* of trying to buy the cover art but since it would cost a fortune, I'm kinda glad I've never seen it.

Wasn't planning on collecting any X-Men (I literally only own two CGC graded issues; GSX1 and 142) but this came up for sale locally and the price was really good, so obviously I could not resist. Maybe I'll just limit myself to collecting random pedigree issues?

I paid way too much for this, but I finally completed my graded run of FF 140 - 200.  The first comic I purchased as a kid was FF 149, so I wanted to complete a run of FF over the time frame that I collected them in my youth.  I've got four 8.5's that I'd like to upgrade eventually, but I'm happy for now. 

Here's the breakdown:

• 8.5 = 4
• 9.0 = 12
• 9.2 = 15
• 9.4 = 18
• 9.6 = 11
• 9.8 = 1

 That's some love!  NICE

Glad those stories meant something!

Much love for FF fans! This is a gorgeous Perez/Cockrum cover. Well done! 
My first comic purchase was FF 165. 
My raw FF run is from 75-374. Not overly impressive but I did what I could.

Got this in yesterday. Little mixed fealings on this as the seller had two copies, indentical page quality and grades. But I liked the wrap on the one I bid on better, but they sent me the other copy they had for sale. Not biggie and definitely not worth the hassle of a return for a switch. One more hole filled...
