Bargain Bin Diving!

[Newt Cox]

I got like 80% of the original Maxx stuff when Image was publishing it. What is the difference between that and hte Maxximized versions?

[Ian Jane]

I hit up a $0.50 sale and picked up a dozen issued of Maxx - Maxximized Edition reprints and about 11 issues of the Eagle Judge Dredd series - only need 4 more to complete the run!

[Newt Cox]

Hit up what was advertised as a TOY SHOW,and while she dug thru 8 tubs of loose TMNT figures I went through some longboxes.

50 cents each

Ghost World TPB-later printing cause it mentions the film on the cover
Green Arrow Long Bow Hunters #1
Justice League of America 100 Super Spectacular Pages-Some recent reprint thing
Kabuki Skin Deep #1

Then from a local artist bought 2 issues of his new comic
The Ripper Gene 1,2- $5 each


Then noticed the booth next to the TMNT bins had mags and comic mags

Bizarre Adventures #25-$8
Cracked #328-$5
Epic Illustrated Winter 1980-$8
Fangoria #39-$1 it is a bit beat up but still have a great V mini series cover
Fangoria #14-$7
Mad Presents the Ultimate Horror Movie-$3

So some decent deals. Hell the Ghost World TPB for 50 cents was a great deal.

And it gave me something to do while she was saying "OMG NEWT A 3rd release April Oneil with Press on her boobs" or "OMG A METAL TMNT TURTLE VAN FOR ONLY 40 bucks"

But I show her a pre issue 50 Fango for a buck and she doesn't get it.

Prophet remission vol 1-that revamped prophet run was 3 bucks
Planetary vol 2-3 bucks

They got a Police Comics issue with a nice Plastic Man cover I got my eye on. Still wanting 20 for it. Which is a decent price. But I know it has been in the shop for years. I wait a bit might get it for 10 or 15 from the owner.
