I'm a little ambivalent about the Kull series after the outstanding Severins' run. I still like the series, but feel it should have been just a bit better than it was. Mike Ploog is one of my favourite artists but for me his work on the colour Kull series never came close to the oustanding black and white Kull story he did think in SSoC, The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune - admittedly a very high bar to reach on a continuing series. Later on, Moench had a nice run on the book with Alfredo Alcala's inks a big help on the artwork. Of the Don Glut run that ended the series I've read only a couple issues and thus don't really have an opinion.
Generally, I think Kull, my favourite REH creation, never received the level of treatment the character deserved. Understandably so from one POV- never as popular as Conan and REH himself dropped the character after a handful of stories - but I still wish both the colour and b&w Kull books had had lasted longer and also had had more consistency with the creative teams. I would love to have seen many more black & white Kull stories from Moench and Vicente Alcazar, and of course a longer run for the Aeverins on the colour book. I'd also love to have seen more of Wally Wood's work with the character after that great first issue.

I've been buying a lot more comics than usual recently, all on eBay/Kijiji as all the shops are closed around here. I think I'm bored and looking for comics on eBay is something to do... I don't post most of the comics I buy but I got a few fun ones in the last two weeks from an eBay seller who post GREAT new comics every week.

Most of them were not cheap though. I'm ok with paying more for comics I'm really exited to get. I had never seen that Jughead cover before and I loved it the minute I saw it. I paid 31$ though.... That "Crime must pay the Penalty" is the golden age comic in the best condition I own. It's really nice!

I bought it off the stands when it was published. Yours is in better condition.

Picked up some comics in one of the Ebay Buy It Now listing that lets you pick out individual issues for a title.
Superman #7, 14 (a couple Byrne issues that one of my brothers used to have when I was a kid) Captain America #260, 279 - I'm trying to fill out a run from #258-289. After this, I'll be down to 3 issues. I have a Essential Captain America vol. 1-7, covering from Tales of Suspense through Cap #257 in black and white, and then color TPBs reprinting Cap #290-350. So I'm approaching a pretty big hybrid run including TPBs.
