Can you post a link to your comics or kickstarter? I’d like to check out your book!

Sure! Here's the link.

The Crimebusters is like Scooby Doo meets Cthulhu. It's also a continuation of the Crimebuster strip from the Golden Age series Boy Comics, as I pick up the continuity where that series left off with #119 in 1956. I'm hoping with the money from selling these books to hire an artist who is both better and faster than myself lol so I can get issues out faster, and also start a couple other titles that I haven't had time to work on since I draw so slowly.

Sensation Comics #66

2.0 - $115

This book is tight and flat. The main issue is a weird spine split - it's split in the middle, between the two staples. Cover is still attached, but also toasty. Interior pages have some tanning at the corners especially, but feel supple. A nice book that was handled well but not stored properly.

Mad #20 - 2.5 - $40

Mad #22 - 1.5/1.8 - $30

or take both for $60

Mad #20: some chipping on spine, there's also a moisture ring on the fc you can only see if you tilt the book at an angle to the light. The book feels a bit floppy. 

Mad #22: A solid book except the spine is split form the bottom up past the bottom staple to about the midpoint. Still attached at the top staple. 

I love both these covers!!

The next group will be romance - Baker, Cole, Lichtenstein, Fox. Might not be until tomorrow, though.

As always with romance, sales data is hard to come by, so I am going to mostly be winging it with my prices. If something you're interested seems too high, send me a PM and maybe we can work something out.

If something seems priced too low, also feel free to PM me with a much higher offer. 

I think that's how it works, right? hm

True to Life Romances #14

2.0 - $90

One of L.B. Cole's better romance covers in my opinion, which nobody asked for.

The cover is detached at the top staple. Bottom staple is still attached, but I have no idea how. I wouldn't count on it. 

A differently messed up copy sold on ebay recently for $90, so we're going to try that.

SOLD per PM

Love Letters #51

3.5/4.0 - $195

I have no idea what this is worth. It's a Matt Baker cover, and the last issue of the series. I have a sense it's not that easy to find. (shrug)

There's chipping along the spine, especially at the top staple. Both staples still attached, and the book is actually pretty tight.

My Secret Life #24

2.5 - $175

Again, no idea what this is worth. It's from Fox, and has their usual salacious content - a woman gets taken in by a con man who kidnaps her before cops seize him at gunpoint; another married woman gets involved with an old flame, leading to a fist fight on the front lawn; and a jealous nurse bullies a pregnant woman into attempting suicide. 

This is a Canadian edition, but it's a bit odd. It's in full color unlike other Canadian editions I have seen; it also contains all the stories on the cover, which is the same as the US edition. I have the sense that this might not be missing any content like many Canadian editions are. However, I'm not sure, because this appears to be on the rare side - it's the only issue of the series that hasn't been indexed by the GCD so I can't compare interiors.
