This Week in Your Bronze Age Collection!! 35 35

[The Man Without Beer]

Getting a newsstand copy was on my must-have list since I started back into collecting.  As a young kid already anxiously waiting each Daredevil issue to arrive on the newsstand, I vividly remember 1st reading this book when I got home and getting to "the panel." Holy sh*t was that a surprise. Intense, to say the least, but still necessary all these years later in hindsight. 

This issue was formally dedicated to the memory of Wallace "Wally" Wood 1927-1981

New arrivals...some missing issues and an upgrade...

[MattTheDuck]

Part of a nice group in today's mail from @drbanner.  I originally bought the Avengers vs Defenders cross-overs off the rack and loved that storyline.  You can tell my original copies were very well-read.

I finally added these two personal grails to my collection.  These came out a little over a year before I started collecting comics at the age of 9.  It only took me 50 years to finally get them.

Maybe I can upgrade them in fewer than 50 years.

I can remember picking up a copy of this comic on a rainy day in late summer/early fall of 1974 at Steven's Drugstore in downtown Knoxville, TN.

In my never ending quest to find a NM version of the book I got another 8.0 matching the one I already have.  I do have a NM candidate at CGC now being graded so crossing fingers.  I'll be putting one of my 8.0's up for sale I guess.

CGC's scanner doesn't capture the full image of Magazines but just got these back too!  Heavy Metal featuring the first Alien Comic ever.  It's part 1 of 2 that was later featured it's own book... and I have part 2 getting ready to go out to CGC too.   Then I got National Lampoon 114 at a 9.6!!!  This book features the short story Vacation 58 submitted to National Lampoon by John Hughes...that inspired all the Chevy Chase films.  Of course John Hughes went on to make so many great movies I can't count before he passed away.

A few more recent pick ups....

[Lee Enterprises]

I finally jumped in on a first Moon Knight appearance. Prices have been all over the place for this issue, but I was glad to get a high grade CGC 9.6 copy with that famous classic cover.

All raw books just received back from CGC.  The Spektor 14 (with Doctor Solar on the cover) I've been searching forever for over a 9.0 and finally got it!  Now I have 2 Spektor 14's at 8.0 I'm gonna sell.  The Solar #31 was a shocker at 9.8 as it's the only one on the registry.  (
