i wonder how much more info is out there that just hasn't surfaced yet.

[dizzyfoxx]

Cool history. I'd love to own one of his former books.

[Jeffro.]

I'm surprised Chuck doesn't have a shrine to him in his basement.

Has any of Church's family, friends, co-workers, or neighbors ever been interviewed?

 

They might have interesting stories to relate.

 

Maybe photographs, too.

[action1kid]

Chuck has a picture of himself with the Church family in " Tales from the Database."

[action1kid]

Or whatever he calls it.

If you're thinking of this photo, that's Chuck's family.

I would have bought the house and made a museum out of it!

For all the *spoon* Chuck takes about everything, I really enjoy his stories and newsletters. The obsessive passion for comic books he has is rare to be matched.

Passion for selling comics. He rarely reads them and certainly doesn't follow storylines in new comics. He has a passion for pottery and for selling comics.

yeah... but wasn't it a case of just dumb luck.. being in the right place at the right time. I'm not jealous or being vindictive.. but there was no "hard work" put into mining the collection.

I guess from how he talks about comics I'm under the impression he must like comics with a passion. I imagine a lot of comic collectors don't read any books, and I know a LOT of people don't follow new storylines. I still don't know anything about Chuck and his pots but I guess passion for comics depends on definition of it.

That shouldn't detract from the history behind it.

Well, according to lore and legend, others passed on the opportunity, and Chuck had to scramble to come up with the financing.
