My wife has been looking for a copy of Stabbity Bunny #1, we couldn't find one locally, Midtown (online) was out stock, ended up getting a copy for cover price from MyComicShop. I sign up for any mailing lists I find and wait for sales. Just last week Midtown had a 40% off sale on back issues online only. I now realize I didn't even post the comic shop that I purchased them at. The name of the online shop is ComicMarketStreet. Not sure if that is a popular site or not with some of the members in here, but that was the first time I had ever checked them out before. I was just working on my comic bookmarks and googled online comic shops and stumbled across a few sites I wasn't familiar with. One of my biggest weaknesses as a comic collector is that I will just continue to buy copies of comics I already own if I really love a particular comic/cover and find a good deal on them. And I absolutely LOVE Frison's Wonder Woman cover run so they were just a no brainer purchase for me, especially at just $2.49 an issue. I have gotten a few comics from MyComicShop over the years, but I usually run into really high pricing there with issues I am looking for. Much of that is due to many of their listing being consignments so their not the one's setting the price. Midtown is definitely my main comic shop for modern comics as they have a great selection, their shipping method is top notch, and they really do have some great sales from time to time. They had a 60% off sale back at the end of January that I placed a really large order with. I have been cutting back on my modern comic purchases but with sales like 60-75% off, I always wind up making large purchases. Seems like more and more online comic shops are having exclusive variants produced. Even ComicMarketStreet is getting in on that action as they have a new GI Joe #249 exclusive variant by Natali Sanders. Here is a pic of the cover. I am not familiar with Natali Sanders. Kind of reminds of Greg Horn's style a bit. Also received a few shipments on Saturday. Basically just some more modern stuff including some signed Stanley Lau & J. Scott Campbell comics and a few Oum & Parrillo variants. Edited February 26, 2018 by OrangeCrush Jimbo749 and letsgrumble 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to see how these various artists have drawn superheroes throughout the decades. Their arms & legs have gotten progressively larger while the waistlines have gone progressively smaller. Maybe the most vivid examples might be green goblin & Flash! Anyways, not a GA fan but it's a real gem of a book there. Restored or not!

I fell you on the big markdown sales though, sometimes you get that feeling like you just want to keep adding stuff to the cart just because it's on sale. Thanks for the heads up on ComicsMarketStreet, will check them out. OrangeCrush 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
