Funny book of the year

[Flex Mentallo]

Fun thread idea.

 

A recent pick-up that I'm very pleased with. Beautiful copy, presents great (love the deep green), and features my favorite of the Bat-less pre-Robin covers.

 

 

Some of you know that I've been chasing a Wonder Woman run for some time. I'm about 40% of the way there, and I was very thrilled to finally nab a respectable #1 earlier this year. (Some of you also know that I ran an epic trade/hardback sale in the modern forum for months. I used almost every cent of the proceeds to pay for this book in full.)

 

 

And I think it's reasonably clear that this is my big enchilada for 2012.

 

 

 

Three very cool books!

Do the books posted have to be books you currently own or have had at one point? Also, are you restricted to GA only?

[RedFury]

OK, here's mine. All purchased back in the spring.

 

Amazing Man 5

 

 

National Comics 1

 

 

Military Comics 1

 

 

Great books Jeff Todd - I'm especially impressed by the colors on that Amazing Man! I know your scans are very accurate so that one must be blinding in the hand!

 

Fixed that for you

 

Yep, the colors are very bright on this one. And it has an especially clean cover for a 3.5, too. I was very pleased to get it.

Sorry Todd - I know perfectly well who you are! I was at work and saw cheetah had posted a comment then got distracted by a passing colleague (some people have no sense of priorities! ) ...

 

Great books - with the added bonus we still have Jeff's to look forward to!

My three were easy choices for me

 

 

Those who know me well, know that this is my favorite comic in the world

 

 

 

15 years of searching finally ended in success for this one

 

 

And this book completed my D. Tracy collection

This one gets my vote for you SH

[shrunkenhead]

 

And a fantastic Batman 1! That book always eludes me...been the underbidder on multiple occasions.

Here are my 3. The first 2 were easy choices, the third was a tough one to choose.

All three are great, but you know which one is my favorite.

In addition to these two books, I should have an Action #3 CGC 3.5 in hand by the end of the year.

 

[Foxtrot70]

I agree Tec 1 is the big Enchilada. For 2012 here are my "tres taquitos"

 

I know its hard to read, but the blue label goodness on that 46 does NOT say Edgar Church collection if you were wondering...
