I saw the restroom at Metropolis!

Perhaps the most remarkable area of their office is the bathroom. Yes, the bathroom.

 

reviewing the books Ed had pulled. I passed on two of them, but ended up with great raw NM copies of Millie the Model 152 and 153 (gorgeous Ogden Whitney covers), and a very nice FF 24 in raw VF after carefully scrutinizing three somewhat similar copies.

Thanks,

Metro has a showroom that is unfriggin-believiable! My personal favorite is the HOS 92 cover on the back wall behind the table. Regardless of personal preferences, the sheer volume of unbelievable stuff is beyond belief. To complement the original art, let's not forget the comics. I still get a rush from seeing Metro set up at shows with a full row of Batman #1s.

 

The Metro showroom and the Diamond Galleries are two "must-sees".

The Diamond Galleries was incredible. Just some of the most unbelievable stuff, and even meeting Geppi was just freaking cool to me. I would love to see the Metro galleries sometime... and hopefully it will be a day when I can buy something over there as well that I've been looking for.

I was thinking about that the other day. What are the "7 Wonders of the Comic World" (assuming you could gain access to all)?
