Actually, my favorites were the war ones. My favorite DCs as a kid. And the Archie with the robot cover. Says he has a lot more including Sgt Rock I've been trying to pick up the Archie's with sci-fi covers (and I think this one qualifies). I don't know if there is a list of them somewhere. I've been going after them haphazardly. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Long Beach Antique Flea Market. 3rd Sunday every month. Probably the biggest one in LA. This joint is huge. Took me 4-1/2 hours today but I did a little “chatting”. Lotta talk about the Storage Wars guy’s comic find. Here is what it looks like at 5:30 am with the trucks rolling in. I guess the old saying is true: The early Robot Man catches the wind-up toys. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None I wanted today. He wanted too much for that cool Distler Porsche so I said Hi and walked. Nice to cross paths with you today Bob. I hope you picked those graded cgc books that day!

NoMan Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 On 4/16/2018 at 4:05 PM, Robot Man said: Thanks Hap. Wow, could that cover be any worse? What a money grab all the way around. I literally have every issue of the original but am done. It's a wonder it hung around as long as it did. Insides any better? I think the only way I will get that is if it comes to me via my subscription which ends now. Gaines, Feldstein, Freas, Mingo and the rest of the usual gang of i dots are probably rolling in their graves... i picked Mad #1 off the rack at Whole Foods last week on a whim. Read about two pages and threw it out the front door where it remains. When will I ever learn in regards to impulse buys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow Robot-Man that's the 1st Distler Porsche worth 25-30K I think 20K was more than fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say there were some features that paid tribute to the earlier magazine that were quite fun. That being said, I'm done with it.

Robot Man Posted May 4, 2018 Author Share Posted May 4, 2018 Man, this title has been getting record prices on the bay lately. Was under the radar but not so much any more. Still hope I can upgrade a few of these pretty soon. Enjoy! sagii and Ricksneatstuff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
