Thanks, much appreciated. I'll keep listing here.

 

It's funny how extreme violence and sexuality is acceptable here... AS LONG AS it's in a comic book.

Great price on these.

 

That first book is especially cool considering Menzel was one of the members of MJ-12. His ties to the NSA and his work as a debunker working directly for the government are key components in early UFO lore.

 

Its a great deal, someone should really grab these.
