jr70 Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 (edited) The next item offered is by the following creator. I dismissed him early on as some American manga wannabe artist. Once I read his elseworlds Batman with the fake dracula teeth (It's awesome) I was hooked. The next item is a duplicate (seeing a pattern). The picture below is hanging in my comic room.

jr70 Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 I met Mignola when Hellboy first came out as DH legend title. He was just some dude in a denim jacket walking around a con in NY. He signed my copy of the first issue of the limited series and an ashcan. Seemed nice enough but he wasn't Hollywood Mignola yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jr70 Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 Alan Moore's Swamp Thing blew my young mind in the 80's. All of sudden comics were growing up as I was. The art and story were top notch. You don't get to Vertigo without this. jimjum12, Readcomix and dover 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr70 Posted December 23, 2022 Author Share Posted December 23, 2022 So for those of you that long for the days of the old Warren mags you should check out the new Warrant mags. You'll see a lot of familiar names and the format is very similar to the books of yore. I thought these we reprints initially so I took a long time to jump on. All the books here are new but were damaged in shipping or production. They're definitely getting tougher to get and more pricey. So here we go....
