I've seen a ton of amazing mags for sale lately at great prices. Couldn't possibly buy them all. I'd post a link to the most recent seller I found unloading his mag collection on the cheap, but I found it with five minutes left at auction and by the time I looked at a few, trying to figure if he would combine shipping on all those $1 Vampirellas, it all ended.
Oh well, good sign of things to come when I have the money to burn.

I forgot to get pics of this. My LCS guy gave me this yesterday. As I was eyeing some of his hardcovers, there was a Popeye hardcover there that I would have loved, but the top of the spine was split and ugly, and his other Mouse Guard book was ripped on the dust jacket, so he walked over and took a look at them. He said if I wanted them, he'd give me 50% off on them. I thanked him but declined the offer. Anyway, while pulling out the various books, he found this, and he handed it to me and told me to take it. Now I have to get the other 3 issues. The art:

I picked up Mouse Guard today at my LCS. I had been eyeing this just about every time I went into my LCS for the past two years, and I've fingered through it, and I finally bought it today. Mouse Guard is a beautiful, enchanting story. Fall 1152 and Winter 1152 are both well worth owning. I love curling up with these in bed on cold winter evenings.

If I can get the dust jacket wrapped this week, I'll probably be doing just that. It's supposed to get COLD again here this week, so it sounds like a delightful plan!

The art: MRP actually sent me #1-3 in a trade last year, I"m looking for #4 : ) Great read, amazing art, but I don't know yet how the story ends...

I thought I had sent issues to someone just couldn't remember who.... -M

I just ordered this: I started bidding on it when it was $6. It looks pretty beat-up but still a good deal at $6. I then ended up going to $16 and then I started hoping somebody would outbid me. Because $16 is probably too much. There was an hour to go. It's usually a sure thing to get outbid in the last hour. Not this time. After I bid on it the first time, I looked at it a little more closely and WOW that pink background, and Batman's been turned to calcium! And the bad guy has turned himself to iron so he can crush him! And that look on Robin's face as he tries to remember the training session about what to do if somebody gets turned to calcium! Yeah, I had to have it. And not only is there a Martian Manhunter story (pre-Zook unfortunately) this is from the short period when Aquaman was in Detective! Maybe it's not in such bad shape.

I can send you this copy, you send me the three copies that mrp sent you, I can read those three copies, send those back to you, and you can send me back my #4 (when you are done reading it, of course).

The dealer finally sent me an adjusted total (I didn't want to spend almost $20 for postage) for some books I tried to order Thursday. So that means this is on its way: Matt Hagen! Silver Age Clayface!

I got these four issues of Kamandi today: Kamandi #15 - This is a bizarre Watergate parody. I'm not kidding. Kirby says "Just buy it!" Kamandi #17 - "The Human Gophers of Ohio"! OMIGOD! I CAN HARDLY STAND IT! Kamandi #21 - Kamandi is one of the best comic books ever! And that completes my Kamandi collection! I have every issue from #1 to #59!
