But I was able to do a nice trade for it at Heroes Con! The holy grail of David's collection, I present to you: Holy cow, David! That's awesome! Very nice.

Comics-n-ERB Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Yep, Gator started reaching for his wallet when he saw the book. Unless things go very wrong in my life, this will stay in the collection for a long time to come. He did make me promise him he would have first crack at it though...........
