Looking for something really out there... 3 3

[Austin_t_a]

I'm on the hunt for some birthday presents for my father.  He's a huge Captain America fan, and I know he'd be happy with just about any Cap-related comic or magazine.  Problem is, I don't really know of anything left to get him! 

 

He has every issue of all of Cap's series, including one-shots, annuals, and limiteds.  To my knowledge, he has every issue of every spinoff character (Nomad, Falcon, etc.), and every Avengers comic Steve has ever appeared in.  He's got just about every Cap-related key issue a man could ever want.  He's even got the Asthma Monster issues.  Anything that would typically spring to mind to get a Cap collector, he's already got.

 

So I'm looking for something way out there to get him- maybe like a fanzine with a cool Cap cover, or a book released only in another country, old rare preview magazine, something along those lines.  To be honest, I dont even know where I would begin to look for something like that, so I was hoping I could tap into a bit of the infinite wisdom around here to find a book there's no way he would know about or own!  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

If you think something that's not necessarily a comic would be good then maybe an original art page with Cap on it?

Not comics related, but Lego will be releasing a Captain America shield soon, he might get a kick putting that together

There are a lot of cool Captain America pins from the shield to the sentinel of liberty badge- both original (very expensive) and reproduction(reasonable).  @Robot Man would have some ideas for unusual Cap stuff.

Hot Toys Captain America 12" figure to display.

Pricey, but they are available now (not on pre-order).

Maybe something related to Cap's best villains, so Red Skull or Baron Zemo? Bust, figurine, funko pop?

There are loads of Marvel UK comics.

There are definitely some cool UK books. Also, does he have the Captain America’s Bicentennial Battles Treasury Edition?

If he’s got a record player…

I like how they didn't even bother to change the webbing on the wheels from the Spider-Man one.

How about film?

or some Richard Purcell memorabilia 

[Sigur Ros]

Have you considered kidnapping Chris Evans and tying him up in dad's basement ?

That's a bit out there.

How about a life-size poster of a comic drawing based on a real person?
