Need two more issues to have from the atlas implosion (October 1957) to 1980 from Marvel complete.

My Own Romance #64

World of Fantasy #9 

Then what? I've noticed you posting some DC books...is that the direction that you're headed?

I have been picking up a DC here and there. Not looking to put together runs. Just interested in a few of them. 

Would like to complete my Millie the Model run, but that could take a very long time. There is always something to search for!!!

Just got the second to last one I needed to complete 10/57-12/79. This was so hard to find. No idea why. 

My Own Romance #64 published July 58. 

Last comic I needed to have everything Marvel published in 1958.

Great looking book. You just never know which issues are going to be trouble, do you?

Looks like you found a really sharp copy too. Congrats!!

Yeah, it is not a beater. And it ended strong on eBay. Bid and payed way more then I wanted too. But I landed a copy.....

Sexy! I'm thinking we probably shouldn't mix silver age comics and hot tubs though.

Congratulations, Frankie!

A monumental achievement! 

By Sanctioned Authority from Stan Lee, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Fearless Front Facer! If this doesn't qualify, I can't imagine what does!

Wow, a fo' real FFF!! That's like comic collecting royalty! Seriously though, this really is a tremendous achievement.

So what's next? Keep going back in time OR are you going to start the "BAF countdown to 22 years of DC comics!!!" thread?

I guess go back some more. I started making a 1/57-9/57 list. That could take me years to finish, some pretty hard comics to land in there. 

DCs I was strictly looking at keys, nothing else, cause D.C. Stinks.

Congratulations baf !!!!

Absolutely incredible accomplishment ! Every time I think I can't finish the Atlas Implosion thru the PHM run, I come back here and read this thread for a push.

Rock on !
