    Yea the Lobo/Batman 2 issues,the 1 issue of Question and that Marvel Alien comic were worth the 10 bucks. The other comics will get read them passed on to someone.

    • I have to bargain bin dive via ebay, and there is one seller that I've been buying from for years that has cheap reading comics. Been a while since I'd bought any, but here is what arrived today.
      The following comics ranged from 41 to 48 cents apiece:
      The Authority(2003) 0-9
      Wildcats(1999) 1-8 11, 12
      Wildcats (2006) 1 (World Storm)
      Wildcats (2008) 1-10
      X Universe 1,2 (didn't want these but they came in one of the groups)

      Also a couple of cheap tpbs in the $4 to $5 range:
      Animal Man v1 (Morrison)
      Planetary All Over The World And Other Stories

      I've never read Wildcats, Planetary or Authority. Even if they suck, they were under 50 cents a pop.

      • The Authority and Planetary are both really good.

        Not really a bargin,well kind of,I got in the TPB of Punisher The Platoon. Paid a bit more than I like to for a TPB,but it was still half what I keep seeing it sell for.

        • Nice haul Gary, just starting to dip my toes in the Wildstorm stuff as well thanks to Scott. Not quite Bargain Bin prices by the time you factor in shipping, but i just ordered some of the Severin Replica Photo-Comics. I ordered Horrors of Spider Island, Strange Vice of Mrs. Ward and So Sweet, So Perverse for $14.50 shipped. These were the one thing that nearly got me to splurge on their bundles, but i just couldn't justify the price. This i can live with.

            PUNISHER: PLATOON is fantastic. I really love Garth Ennis' war comics. I paid cover price (or a few bucks under) for the trade on release day.

              I had been reading to read more of the Ennis run for years now. Got in and read Punisher Born last month. So figured I needed to get The Platoon.

              WHen Ennis was on Punisher I was out of modern comics pretty much. I would goto the comic shop pick up some Marvel Essentials and DC Showcase Presents trades.

                        • Grabbed copies of Splatter #1 and #3 out of a $2 bin this morning. Those Northstar books are getting harder to find these days. I guess they are 30 years old at this point.
