Turns out, a lady had requested to get SIKTC starting at issue #2 and they got her a fourth print #1 and continued getting them until issue #20 and she never picked them up. True story, the shop sold the entire set to me for $10 so they were actually 50 cents each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Not all Modern books, but I rescued these from a dollar bin in Moncton, New Brunswick... Since that's $1 Canadian, it was really a 78 cent bin. OtherEric, ADAMANTIUM, Gino D and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt see frazetta nor a #1, I ended up passing, but they looked like fun! I could go back if you recommend or are familiar?

In my experience every issue of EPIC has good stuff, but they’re all mixed bags. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of them cooled down but the Sups/Bat has a lot of potential to go back up again. As do the rest WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post littledoom Posted December 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) These comics were from a dealer friend’s $3 boxes (they used to be $1 boxes). I’ve found so much insane stuff from his boxes over the years. It was his first set up in about 2 years. After paying full price for some great keys he let me have these books for free A dealer found 5 copies of the first Winter Soldier at this booth from a store that went out of business 15+ years ago. He told another dealer and that dealer friend found an Amazing Fantasy 15. And he recommended me this booth. (We were at this booth at the same time). He let me have an exhibitor badge to get in this con. This is what I found for $1 each these are $1 books from an overstock booth Edited December 31, 2021 by littledoom onlyweaknesskryptonite, ADAMANTIUM, greggy and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastballspecial Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Thats a good show right there. Those Dragons are very hard to find just because the print run was nothing. Look at you with your Young Guns books. littledoom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
