You should give Nelson that book in trade for all the hard work he put into organizing your sales thread.

C'mon cheapskate, you sold a ton of books! Throw the Count a bone.

 

it's not enough that i put him into his red dress cover grail? and for the counter-offer he shot me without even coming back on top of him for more????

Oh....well...

in that case hold this sucker over his head and gloat like I know you can (thumbs u

 

Hey Mr. P, what one purdy book, I need to get me some them, Beaudreaux :devil:

Weird 2 is probably at the top of my list. Tough as nails to find in any shape. Great book.

I agree Andy. Here's the Larson copy, complete with the obligatory foxing:

 

Wow. Wow. Wow.

 

What a killer book. Not sure which I like better, that or Billy's Fantastic. Guess I need to get copies of both to find out. I'll report back in a decade. :censored:

I passed on a chance to buy that book. :cry: It ended up in good hands. :)

Just catching up on this thread -- great books, people!

 

I just now noticed that the central villain of Mystery Men 10's cover was swiped from my Wu Fang pulp cover. Check it out:

Ok, so you guys and gals know that I have been assembling the complete run of Dick Tracy, slowly. I really love this run of comics and hope to have all of his appearances one day. Daunting task, and I'm in no hurry so it is a lot of fun.

 

I received a box of 17 issues today, and am thrilled with them! The seller apparently got many of them from the same source as they have identical date stamps. At any rate, I posted scans of the issues in my run a while back and everyone seemed to enjoy them, so I thought I go ahead and post the 17 new arrivals to the run. Jack will enjoy the really violent early issues :) So, off we go:

Nice books Bill! Those earlier issues are violent aren't they?!? So do you know how far you are from a complete run?

That is pretty cool, a nearly exact swipe.

Thanks David! I have about 2/3rds of the run completed. Concurrently I am chasing the Four Color issues and the Super Comics issues, so it is a bunch of books. But I'm in no hurry to complete it, as I really enjoy the quest. I'm trying to keep the books in pretty nice grade too so I pass on lower grade copies for the most part. Although, I do have a handful of issues in the VG range, most are better than FN

Eventually yes, I'd sure like to start the run off with that copy though! :wishluck:
