generic user Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 now I feel wholly inadequate as a collector....sob but it was fun trying to count how many of those books are worth more than my entire collection and it's nice to see Green Giant make it into the "Honor Photo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comicdey Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 funny how the marvel mystery is just buried in the mix along with all the other gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 You know you have a killer collection when the SA stuff (which is all awesome) is mostly an after thought because most of us are too busy drooling at the depth of the GA stuff.

generic user Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 This is a postscript to the Smash set. Lady Luck picked up the numbering of Smash, but only lasted 5 issues. As far as I know, these are all new stories and not reprints from the Spirit Sections. But the real joy for me was discovering the Count DiChange solo stories.

MrBedrock Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 This is a great set. And tough to complete. There was a guy who used to advertise in the CBG in 10-15 years ago who was buying every copy available. The supply dried up. Haven't heard from him in years. Anyway, congrats on some great books. Nice to see them all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
