On second thought, this is probably the best "snag" of the year for me. I apologize about the HORRIBLE scan :( It was the best I could do with it. Perhaps I can get a photo of it sometime soon.

That's a good one. However, since you have already posted a "best snag," I think the rules require you to send this one on to the next poster...which just happens to be me! Sorry.

 

:whee:

It used to be the poor man's Suspense #3, but now I think it has become the moderately affluent's Suspense #3.

 

Thanks you guys! It WAS quite a bit of loot, but somehow I think I'll look back a few years from now & be happy to have gotten it for what I paid. I've looked for a decent copy for a LONG time & usually only see beaters. (shrug)

HA!!! Funny Walter lol PLEASE tell me that that's worked before :wishluck:

 

I'll borrow a saying from an old professor of mine when we would ask him how many times he had seen a particularly rare disease in a patient. Dr. Selcer would say, "Well, this one and one other will make two."

Guess I'll just have to be happy with this one. Looks nice. The detached cover made it reasonably priced and in the slab, it doesn't bother me.

2014 was a great year for me and comic collecting. I finished my Planet Comics run with some of these beauties:

And started to reacquire the Frazetta covers I sold last year:

I also finally acquired a Strange Tales 28:

I had a great 2014. I thought I'd show all of my purchases in my Journal thread. Self indulgence can be found here.

 

If I had to pick a favourite, it might even be this one. Not expensive, not high grade, but wonderfully wrong in all the ways that matter!

Great, great book. I have one and I cherish that cover!

I won't list all my purchases, as per Cat's OP, but this is my second favourite snag of the year so I had to post this one as well. One of my favourite EC covers, I don't think this one gets the attention it deserves imo. Bought from Cheetah early 2014.
