Catch-up time… Spectre Archives was a Christmas present, ST 101 because what other 1962 Marvel hero 1st issue can be had for $100 complete?; CSS slab can’t be shown but it’s from the personal collection of Jerry Garcia (thank you @Robot Man and @KirbyJack for your consultation during the process), Mexican edition of Rawhide Kid #17; a couple high grade 1964 Marvels, French Canadian editions of Charles Schulz’s first two published works; FWJ #2 completes an awesome, oddball Bronze Age run of an Archie knock-off by the Golden Legacy comics publisher, All Star 27 wounded warrior cover that has been homaged by the late Darwyn Cooke, and Dan DeCarlo OA and an OAAW #83, which should both need no explanation.

Picked up a lot of stuff in the past week or two - some from the boards (thanks @nicka!), but most from some nice deals on eBay or at LCS's:

Those are all solid investment pick ups with lots of potential upside. What’s the story on the Innovation Nightmares on Elm Street? That’s an expensive series set

Thanks, kind of a weird little story on those actually! I already owned Nightmares on Elm Street 1-6 and The Beginning 1-2 (which I lucked out on getting those in the first place, won them in a 10-book lot that included those 8 and the 2 Marvel Nightmare on Elm Street magazine issues for $125 total about a year and a half ago). I was considering getting my initial copy of #6 graded, so I posted a "spare a grade" post last Thursday night to see if I could get some consensus on condition.

Right after I posted, I decided to look on eBay to see what #6 was going for because I hadn't checked in a while. When I went to eBay, someone had just posted a brand new listing for those 5 books (Nightmares 2, 3, 5 and 6 and Beginning 2) for $55 BIN, so of course I snapped it up right away.

I got lucky with the Batman Hush run too, the seller didn't call out the fact that 608, 609 and 611 were newsstands, and I ended up winning the auction for $117.50. I've seen that set in direct editions sell for as much as $175 recently, and a couple of 609 newsstands just sold for close to $70 alone. I'm only a couple of issues away from a full newsstand Hush run now (plus I probably have close to three full sets of the run anyway in mixed direct/newsstand just from picking up books and lots over the past couple of years).
