I remember those! The second one is great. The first one, meh. I agree with your meh appreciation A story without surprise... Yup. Plus, I really did not care for the art. Sorry, Infantino fans.

One dealer had a bunch of Detective Comics from circa 1960 and the one I wanted went over $20 (too much for me!) so I put a lower bid on this and got it for $13. It looks kind of dumb. I bet the phantom turns out to be either an alien or Vicki Vale!

A sunny afternoon in France... I went to my favorite comic shop and I found this series: The Inhumans by Jenkins & Lee, in 1998. The series is complete, and several issues are near mint, or at least very fine. A lucky day !

The Inhumans by Jenkins & Lee, in 1998. I used to own that series, but I got rid of it in the end. I don't remember much about it, but I remember it being solid enough when I read it.

I bet the phantom turns out to be either an alien or Vicki Vale! This came in the mail today! I was flipping through it to make sure it had all the pages and no coupons were cut out and I saw the BIG REVEAL! The Phantom of Gotham City is stupid-looking random alien named Pol! I was mostly joking when I wrote that above, but it looks like I was right.

Nice haul.

I had so many of those Treasury Editions, but I wasn't a Conan fan until much later, so I never got the Conan ones. I'm guessing that if I had picked one up back then, I'd probably have been a Conan fan much sooner!

I bought a Conan Marvel Treasury Edition comic, Marvel Treasury Edition #15 at an antique store. One of the very best of the Treasury Editions, IMO. You get the The Song of Red Sonja, many fans' pick as their favourite single story from the Conan the Barbarian series, and Black Colossus, one of the best and earliest of the Buscema+Alcala stories from SSoC. The artwork in the latter works surprisingly well in colour, designed though it was for the b&w mag. The Gil Kane story is solid as well, if not quite up to the standards of the other two.
