Bat-Man Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 It's official - my dog hates Detectives. Nice pic! Love how he sticks his tongue out too just don't let him cofuse the comic for kibbles and bits Haha! yeah really! The comic is actually farther away form her than it appears. I could flex before she could attempt anything. If she did -she would have to find a new home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat-Man Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 First off thank you everyone for your kind words on my two favorite books! Been a long time coming on both and I finally was able to pick up these two earlier this year. I remember looking at a comic book back in the 90's called "Batman Gallery" which is the first time I had really gotten a good look at the Tec 31 cover. Ever since that moment it has been my most sought after Tec and my favorite comic cover and comic image of all. Never thought I would own a Tec 31 since it is so highly sought out and demands so much $$$ The basic equation to purchasing a Tec 31 as we all know is: 1. Finding one at all + 2. Having the funds available to snatch it up I guess the stars aligned this year (availability and money wise) and I was able to pick this baby up. Very very thrilled. My personal grail (Tec 31) was acquired in January and I have never been happier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not for a higher grade - but it would be nice) I am a little scared to crack now though. I have owned very few brittle or slightly brittle books in my time but when I have the books always look darker and on the one brittle book I owned the pages where almost brown. But that is not the case on this Tec 31 - pages look at worst cream/ow but I suspect better. And like you said gator, primetime, and t3quila it may be 99% say cream/ow or better but 1% might be slightly brittle somewhere - surely could be the spine area. It is slightly darker there.
