Got two bargains today. Arcade issue came from the LCS,which is getting out of comics and going full into CCG and collectibles,so was half off the sticker price of 10 bucks. Owner said "It's been on the shelf for 2 years and you and one other person have looked at it."
The right comic was at Dirt Cheap and 99 cents. The art looked decent. Figured I will give it a read and either toss it into someone's Newtcrate or add it to the collection.

Went to a small local show that a few friends were set up at this afternoon.
Grabbed a few more $1 books...
Orphan And The Five Beasts #1 (James Stokoe's art is fucking great)
X-Men Classics #1
The Elektra Saga #2, 3, 4 (Miller reprints)
Eternals #17

I also scored a Wolverine #4 and a few Alan Moore Swamp Thing issues I was missing for really nice prices. That finished up the Miller Wolverine mini-series for me and I'm getting closer on the Moore Swamp Thing run (which seems to be getting harder to come across lately).Rock! Shock! Pop!
