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.

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 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close 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?

I haven't cracked them open yet but I think it's just new cover art.

If that is the only difference I will pass.

Ok so every December a buddy sends me a box of non marvel non dc comics.

This years box was a bit smaller than the last few,Not as many comic shops in his area closing or having massive sales.Plus he is having trouble finding stuff I dont already own.

Supreme 13 thru 16-First 4 parts of teh Supreme Madness storyline. Yea going for a full run of Supreme.

X-statix 14,15-Never read it but heard good stuff.

Hellblazer 184&185 then 203,204,205-4 more issues towards completing this run. Going to a full run between TPBs and issues. One issue I had already but this is a better looking copy.

The Crusades #20-Never read or heard of this

Alien Legion #6-Another I am trying to get a full run of.

The Fist of God 1,2,4-Mini series from eternity Great art but it is RA Jones also Gerald Jones? If so I doubt this gets a tpb. So gonna track down issue 3. Feels like a pulp serial made into a b/w comic.

Go West #1-Never heard of this or the publisher,Alterna comics.

Sheena #0-Dynamite stuf

Inhumans #5-He broke his no marvel rule. Might have been a mistake.

2 Lock and key issues-Think it is the same issue with a variant cover.

Wayward 21-Image no clue what this is

Flare #6-Hero Graphics had nothing to do with Hero Illustrated right?

Uncanny X-men Annual 11-Buddy remembered me having this comic decades ago. "Found it and threw it in,breaking the no marvel rule". that is why I think the inhumans was a mistake.

Walking Dead 158,159,159 variant cover,163-By this era of the series i was reading my girlfriends copies then just buying the compendiums as they came out.

Not a bad haul, very nice of him to send you all that!

[Newt Cox Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Newt Cox]

He has been great about finding stuff I would want to read but either dont have or didnt know existed.

I picked up all 3 issues of the DC Twilight mini series by Howard Chaykin and Jose Garcia Lopez for $0.99 each yesterday. I've never read it before but based on the creators I figure it was worth $2.97.

You bastard LOL I paid cover price for those. Great great never talked about series. I dont know of a tpb of it.

Ha, I remember passing on it when it first came out due to the high cover price on it.

It looks like there was a trade in 2014 but it's out of print.

Wow shocked I missed that 2014 tpb. When it was coming out I remembered my uncle talking about the old DC space stuff so I got it. He read it and wasnt as big a fan of the story as I was. But we both loved the art.

Found some kinda-sorta rarish ratio variants for Maniac Of New York: The Bronx Is Burning for $2 each yesterday, as well as Gay Comics #34 which has a Sam Keith Maxx cover and a story inside (though Keith didn't do the interiors). Oh, and a Reid Fleming #1. A fifth printing, but still, I grabbed it anyway.
