Beau Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Some stuff I picked up here & there this past week... From these forums... From a local pawnshop... ...that doesn't look like a 40+ woman hanging out in that tree, waiting to pounce on a younger man, but you can never tell what those cougars will do. Just wait 'till she finds out the Rawhide Kid doesn't swing her way. The DC Special #4 is in rough shape, I bought it just because I wanted to read it, only to discover later it's the 1st appearance of Abel! As I was reading it, I noticed that Cain was acting like he hadn't seen Abel since forever ago, so I whipped out my trusty OS guide and looked it up. OS says Abel only makes a cameo, but he tells two stories on his own, so I consider it a first appearance. You never know what you'll find in a pawnshop, I guess.

KUDOS to you for purchasing off the Boards and sharing your sweet Pawn Shop find with us!!!! You are truly appreciated! Thanks for the kudos DPP! However, I do buy frequently from these boards, and I only found out about the Pawn Shop buys after a guy came into my LCS while I was there, waving around a copy of TMNT #1 he found there, that he paid $1 for. He was wondering if it was worth anything. I almost gagged. Against my better judgement, I looked at it, declared it to be a true first printing, and offered him $100 cash on the spot. He balked, so I offered him $200 cash (it was a mid-grade copy at best). I should have been an and told him it was an Archie comics printing. I know my cash offers may seem low, but he had only paid $1 for it, minutes ago. At any rate, he told me where the pawn shop was, and I went there to see what he'd missed, and it was pretty much everything else....the pawn shop pics, I paid $1 each for. The 'Enemy Ace' with Neal Adams, I'm very happy to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAFLASH Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Picked this up at the Atlanta Comic Con. It was a hard decision. The choices were Human Torch #3 VF(restored), Miss Fury #8 VF and this Detective #143 6.5/7.0. I chose the Detective due to its scarcity and popularity. The character on the cover resembles a late-night talk show host don't you think??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
