The Originality of it All

Or a Comic Book, piece by piece

 

I purchased a few New Mutants to get signatures for. I would hate to get one and the sole book comes back a 9.6 instead if a 9.8. I chanced this with my #54 but refuse to try with my #47. There is a "Masters" signing coming up that I hope to send my Special Edition to get Chris Claremont, Terry Austin, and Jim Shooter to sign it. I only wish Art Adams was also part of it. This means less books for ECCC, unless I get more shifts...or sell some more stuff on eBay.

 

And although I wish to complete my New Mutants set this year I have another goal I would love to do, one a bit closer to the impossible. Currently I have four pages from New Mutants #15, the original pages. I missed out in the cover but have the first two pages as well as eight and fourteen, both of which are marked wrong.

 

At first the pages are marked as they match in the book, but are either crossed out or just written over. The latest page I just found was page 15. This gives me five out of the 22 making up this comic book. My holy grail was once having issue 15 in a 9.8. Now I'm trying to get that same 9.8 signed by Sal Buscema but how cool would it be to have the entire issue adorn my walls.

 

Thanks for Reading

Good luck in your quest for your grail and your signatures!

 

Thank you, by the way, love those Action Comics you have. Beautiful and vibrant. I knew about them before but never appreciated them until you brought them to light. Thank you for that.

This is awesome and your goal even more so. I was wanting to try this with Wolverine #33 and then as soon as I found the pages took one look at the price and said maybe something newer and less well known. Good Luck.
