Boboset Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Awesome #50 1dingo, not an easy 9.8 due to the unforgiving spine. Congrats to Revat on the Registry set and the journal. I will keep checking out your journal as long as you keep posting in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boboset Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 I finally dug out the short boxes so I could share the rest of my collection with my fellow Darkhawk enthusiasts. The raw #1 money shot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaillant Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I was somehow convinced I bought Darkhawk #1 (or even the first issues) when it came out, but for some reason I probably did not, as I can’t find it in my collection. At the time I was bascially subscribing to a 90% of what Marvel was printing – I have all the early New Warriors, Sleepwalker et al. It is possible, however, that I gifted them together with the Quasars (I can’t find them either) and the Marvel Comics Presents to a friend of mine… I’d be curious to know why Boboset is so affectioned to it but yet says it was so-so and a "timecapsule" of the early 1990s. What do you mean by that? In the meantime, I am just waiting for the right occasion to send Jason (Comicalgems) this one as a gift… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Low Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) I finally dug out the short boxes so I could share the rest of my collection with my fellow Darkhawk enthusiasts. [/img] Holy Moly! +1 and also... WHY? I’d be curious to know why Boboset is so affectioned to it but yet says it was so-so and a "timecapsule" of the early 1990s. What do you mean by that? Vaillant, here's why. It's a terrible book. The book has very little depth and clearly pumped out to get a bazillion copies out (Look, another #1!) I dug out my raw Darkhawk #1 (found it next to the sealed NM+ copies of Nth Man, Barbie Fashion and Barbie #1 ) and re-read it. Terrible origin. Here's a summary: "Mum's a hot babe assistant DA working real hard to stop the mob. Dad's a beat cop with a mustache. I have two annoying kid brothers. Oh, look, my dad is taking mob money. Oh no, the mob is after my brothers. I have to save my family! Run!! Oh look, I found a stone that gives me powers and wraps me in superhero costume. I'll take care of the bad guys. Ouch, I got a cut but the bad guys are dead. I'm now a bad- superhero! Oh look, the cut has mysteriously disappeared" Edited July 9, 2014 by Shawn Low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodey Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 That's the best origin ever! It's basically my family. Minus the stone, the mustache, and two younger brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
