The "Official and First" what you got from your SS thread

[A.Romeo]

Id like to say a BIG THANK YOU to HADO for the SS gifts this year. This was my first year being able to participate and you made it a memorable one!

I can't thank my Secret Santa enough for the incredibly thoughtful and creative set of gifts!

 

First, this is what the gifts looked like before being unwrapped...

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was blown away by the wrapping paper so I had to open each one carefully so I could save it. I think this is my absolute favorite wrapping paper ever!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And this is what was inside!

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm speechless by how thoughtful this was and what I thought was very ironic was that Charlie (Miraclemet) inspired me to start a journal on a themed collection and now he just added some fantastic books to that theme!

 

The historical GA books look great but in all honesty, I'm REALLY looking forward to reading Kavalier & Clay!

 

Thank you once again Miraclemet and Happy Holidays!!!

 

 

I had SO much fun hunting for books in your theme!

 

It felt like I was back in Lady in White mode...

 

I'm thrilled that you like the books and the new underwater comics. It definately felt like a perfect fit when I got your name.

I seems like every year I get the best secret want and this year is no exception. I want to send a huge thank you to David Merryweather, I always like reading your posts in the Golden Age section. When I was getting ready to open it, I was like this:

 

 

Then when I got it opened I was like this:

 

 

Then when I realized there was more in the box, I was like this:

I still don't know who my Santa was either.

My Secret Santa Ernster hooked me up!

 

My son loved the Hulk and Cyclops toys.

 

I did not have any of the books! There is some great reading in my near future.

 

The Mouseguard set was a great choice.

 

The Batman '66 cover brought back some fun memories. I watched that show with my little brother when I was 5.

 

Thank you so much!

I got to open mine tonight

 

 

and unwrapped

 

 

Vol. 1 and 2 of X-23 Hardcovers, Super cool

 

Unfortunately my Secret Santa didn't put his Board name anywhere on the package so I cant send him a message properly, so I hope he see's this.

 

Thanks George!

I found out my SS was Palamas

 

Sounds like he went on a crazy adventure looking for SW books, and also said there's another box on it's way from Germany

 

Thanks again George

Nice gifts. With the wife and I having our first child in a couple weeks I completely forgot to get involved in the Secret Santa this year.

 

Looking forward to getting back into it in 2014.

I want to thank my SS.... none other than BaltimoreLauren for the awesome books!! It's like having a celebrity sending you Christmas cheer!

 

Here is my gift when I got it in the mail a couple weeks ago...... it was so tough not to open it early but I made it (thumbs u

 

 

Love the card!

 

 

Here is my son helping his daddy open his present.....thanks buddy!

 

 

And finally the comic goodness inside

 

 

Being a huge Marie Severin fan I love The Cat #1 book

 

Thanks again BL for all the Christmas comic gooness, you definitely nailed it!

GodQuest was my SS, and he did an amazing job! I can't thank him enough!! I love them all, especially the chocolate. Easiest way to my heart.

 

 

 

Awesome package! Haven't gotten to my P.O. Box to check on my SS gift yet so I'm just living vicariously through all of you for the moment. Absolutely love those Archie books!
