Well, I've been buying GA at the Paradise Toronto Comicon so far. Sadly, no ME Ghost Riders at any booth. That said, I did get my Tim Holt 11 and some Boy Comics issues I thought I'd share. (I'll probably post my Iron Man 1 in the SA forum as well.)

 

Figured some of you guys could appreciate these. First post will be the Tim Holt 11 which was the token beater of the group. I needed the book, though, and haven't seen it anywhere else since I started looking.

 

Tim Holt 11 (First Ghost Rider)

That's pretty dang nice for a "beater". Wish my beaters looked that good thumbsup2.gif

It is! (Thanks for the compliment.) That's what sold me on it. It was advertised as "VG" but I have a bad feeling CGC would interpret some of the defects as 2.0ish on further inspection. Either way I'm truly happy with the book.

 

Still another 1 or 2 scans coming. And hopefully 1 or 2 more will be posted Sunday.

I'll take a 2.0 that looks like that ANYDAY, EVERYDAY!

Nice pick-ups, Rob... that Boy #12 is cool - great cover! Why doesn't Crimebuster let those guys finish torturing Hitler first, tho? insane.gif

 

That's not Hitler, my friend. That's an American G.I. being tortured.

Lonestar has a VG tim Hoilt #11 for $76

 

I have been eyeing it, but never pulled the trigger gossip.gif

 

Is Lonestar a store or a boardie I haven't heard of? I wouldn't mind being greedy and owning a couple of them.

Lonestar is mycomicshop.com. If you do a search under their web name, you'll find they've been mentioned a bit around here, both good and bad.

Ahh Thanks. I'm familiar with them but I guess I don't think about them as "Lonestar" even though they are.
