Just got back. I was primarily looking for Adams Bats and Tecs. THere were a few. I bought the reasonable ones. B 232 seems to be in big demand b/c everybody was asking for top dollar.

 

I thought I couldn't grade.

[Larryw7]

So did you guys get anything good?

I picked up a Flash 110 (1st Kid Flash aka Wally West) (thumbs u

 

It's a low grade copy, but that's my thing. I grew up with Wally as the Flash, so I think it's cool.

 

Lots of reading material as well. There were a lot of dealers with dollar (or less) boxes.

[Tnerb]

One of my favorite shows. Do you go often?

[maloney414]

Yeah, I'm one of the regulars. (thumbs u

So did you guys get anything good?

It was the first comic show for my 10 month old daughter, and she was wide-eyed the whole time, taking it all in. I spent most of my time there just chatting with boardies Ciorac and jgallo, and dealers Marc Nathan, Al Stoltz, Dave Reynolds, and Gene Carpenter.

 

I didn't buy any old books this time, but I did get a few deep discount graphic novels from Marc Nathan, the Asterix Omnibus Vol 4 and Dynamite's The Lone Ranger HC slipcase.

 

 

[MK Ultra]

I bought four packs of magazine boards and four packs of magazine bags. The dozen comics I got included Conan 274, Bats 244, and oddly, that's all I can remember on this scarlet day.

[MK Ultra]

Tec 369

Bats 245 x2

xmen 248

Machine Man 18

Conan 274

Alien Worlds 2 & 4

Bats 358 (don't ask)
