Awesome report on your end @SSkufan!!! I agree with quite a few of your assessments! Maybe we can met up at Planet next month?

The one thing I did not get to do yet is post what I got! The train was not the place to do it and I worked today so here we go!

Marvel Tales  Annual 1 reprints  a lot of the 1st app.

Strange Tales 87 I love the monster books! they are awesome!

Suspense 27..I didn't open this before I bought it (or the other 2 for that matter) because ...1. Ive bought from them in the past.....2. It looked good. But the staples are bearly hanging on on the back of the book. OH well still a cool book!!

Thank You for more great books @superworldcomics.com !!!!

Pretty sure that, unlike a lot of the prints of copyrighted characters, you could fairly easily make the case those are satirical and fair use.  The question is do you want to fight the mouse if they come after you, the answer is the mouse probably wouldn't want to risk the case either.

Also, thank you for the awesome show report, @Raze

Didnt they go after a daycare for having their characters painted on the walls?

You cannot beat the Mouse.  Even satire.|

Now for my EC pickups!

There are a few of you that know I collect EC books so I shared these in the EC addict thread first! But now you all get to see these!

Panic 4..This puts me 2 away from having the whole run.

Panic 8......This is an extra/upgrade, I haven't checked yet.

Picture Stories from Science 1....This completes a super hard 2 issue set 

Mad 21.....Ive been wanting one since I herd it was the first app of Alfred E. Newman on Mad. I don't know if its true but I got one!

Im also debating on taking out the extra staple. What do you guys think I should do keep it or take it out? Both regular staple are attached.

Also this book was purchased from Torpedo Comics. They bought a collection that this book came from and added this little card about the collection. It is not a Pedigree but it was a big collection with a lot of notes on the books. I thought it was pretty neat so Im sharing the back as well.

 

The Last but not least is 

Tales from the Crypt 39!!!! Thanks to @Dale Roberts for this one!!!

Never noticed it before, but Grogg looks like a prototype for The Abomination.

Nice selection of books.

And this will around out the raw Purchases! And its a dozy!

Marvel Tales 119....Such A great cover and a horrible way to die!

[Raze]

I did these a few years back when they came out. And I got to show them to the artist! It was cool to hear the response from them.

I asked them to sign the case and they both did, cully Hammer signed the bottom right of Green Arrow and Aaron Lopresti signed the top of the label.

OOPS!!! I forgot this one as well

Informer 1....Ive wanted this book since I first saw it a few years back and only had 1 chance to buy 1 and it was way to much, but I got this for around OSPG. Moral of this book dont be a Stoolie!

Now for the last story of the Trip and it starts at last years C2E2.

Last year I was walking artist alley looking around and saw this great Two Face Sketch cover! I really wanted it but had gone over the spending budget and couldnt pull the trigger. So I asked for a doodle and he did an Awesome Riddler sketch on the side of my Comic sketch folio.

I told the artist (Criss Madd) it was awesome and said Thank You and went on my way.

A few months after the show I had some money and found him on facebook and he had done 2-3 shows since C2E2 so I thought  it was gone.

This year I saw him on the C2E2 list and thought man Im stoping buy to get a commission of Riddler since I liked his doodle he did for me. And what was on his table...The Two Face Sketch! So I got it instead of the commission since it was somewhat of a regret that I didnt get it last year. Also it was his first graded book, and a CGC 9.8 to boot.

Im also posting his Crypt Keeper which was SICK and his very detailed DCEASED! Was not able to get ether one Unfortunately.
