Straw-Man Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 And this one makes me the happiest - lower grade copy but I finished the run of Heroic Comics through #15 before the genre change. Picked this one from Jim Payette. I don't have a group shout with this one included but also below is my group shout without the #13: yay!!!!!!!!! now help me find that 10!

Straw-Man Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 you know you've bought a minor book when your "minimum $14" buyer's premium and the s/h are almost as big as your winning bid. BUT, this is not an easy book, and it fills this little 3 book run [i know, i know, "why do you want the fecalish little run in the first place?"--cuz #1 is mainly purple, and i have a weakness for purple books, and at that point the completionist in me took over. that "intervention" show has turned me down twice now].

Great pickup - I almost bid on the book, but am glad you won it instead! (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquirecomics Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Bought this a few months ago raw and picked it up from CGC at SDCC. Was pleasantly surprised by the grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquirecomics Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Picked this up in a private transaction at SDCC. Even with the married cover, I couldn't be more pleased. Try finding a copy!!! Unfortunately not much to look at in a CGC holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquirecomics Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Crack that puppy. It is very tempting!! But knowing my luck I would damage it. Fortunately I do have access to the contents as they are contained within this 1942 journal. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiveTurkeyMoFo Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Only bought three books at SDCC this year. Two were left with CGC so I won't have them for a few months, but this one came home with me. Been looking for a copy for quite some time now. I did a triple take when I saw it peeking out from behind another book on the dealer's wall. Thought my eyes were deceiving me, but happily they weren't. I'm generally not envious of lower grade pick-ups....but color me green after seeing that one. Nice snag Bill!

ciorac Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Just back from Susan & CGC. Picked it up from the post office the day before I left for SD... (worship) Dang I wish I had a Bat 1!!! Yeah, me too. And imagine my surprise on seeing this book here when Jeff had it with him in SD and didn't even offer to share a glance at it with poor old Ciorac.........
