Just back from CGC minus the COA 🤬 My issue 8 that I bought in the late nineties.

wunnerful!

[Webhead2018]

Well knocked another one down on my remaining needed asm issues. Picked up issue 301 I been holding past month at my lcs. And now I only need 269 from 1 to present to have full run. Not counting annuals. Not going to that mess yet

I know this isn't a asm book. But cool item I just got in the mail.

I picked up this ASM #9 @ Fanexpo Toronto and this completes my run from #1-present (#927) + annuals.  I'm not a variant completist, I just pick up one I like.  

This has been an ongoing goal of mine since starting back in 1994. 

No AF#15 unfortunately,  Missed the boat on that one but luckily picked up #1 several years ago before it spiked.  

I also have complete runs of Spectacular,  MTU, Web of, and virtually all the other satellite titles. 

 

 

 

Seriously, congratulations!! I know exactly how this feels for you as I have the exact same run  ( ....and ongoing as well)  but I was lucky enough to grab AF#15 a while back, so it is a very precious run for me.

Man, you really know you're really cooking with gas when you get the Straw-Man seal of approval. For any youngsters that may have never heard the phrase, "cooking with gas," here's a link that explains it.

My grandfather used to say "cooking with erl" ... and I still whip that one out every once in a blue moon.

Awesome, I never knew there were two direct editions!  Had to go back and check mine.

It’s that time of year. Am I the only one who imagines he’s The Green Goblin in the grocery store?

Got a few back in a recent sub.  I'm looking to get as many early issues as I can slabbed, then a handful of keys.  For starters:

[pmpknface]

And also the #22.  I bought my 23 already slabbed so now I have 1-23 graded.

Don't give the neighborhood kids any ideas.

 

[pmpknface]

I also bought my 32 slabbed, so it jumps up to there.  I may eventually do the whole Ditko run and through 42 then to 50.  Until then my wife gave me a #40 (my favorite cover) in 8.5, but I still l had my raw copy and sent it in.  Not bad, although I thought it was a tad higher:

[pmpknface]

And speaking of keys...  I know this is more bronze, but how can I not share this one.  Not bad, considering what I paid for it.  ;)  

And I'll hide 1 more bronze / modern if ya wanna look (my favorite villain):
