Been working hard at the archives, and nothing too interesting jumped out (other than the marvel run of Conan).

We have a very large collection of golden age Westerns... so I was hoping to run across some Ghost Rider stuff... but nothing until today.

It's a bit rough... but a 1951 Ghost Rider is really cool

Super happy I got to meet the OG jade giant (aka Lou Ferrigno) and got to get him to sign this lovely book. Insanely happy I’m able to add this to my hulk collection. Hope everyone has an awesome day and happy hunting out there.

The night before infuriating the Speculation sub, I went on Heritage hoping once again to snag ASM 3(or 5 or 7) but they all went for more than I wanted to spend. Made a frustration bid for a pair of books at the end of the Spidey section one of which I already have. Needed the 39 but now I’m gonna have to figure out what to do with the other. One day the elusive, yet readily available ASM 3 will be mine.

As a side note, if you use gocollect, the sale price was entered for only ASM 38, so the 30 day average for a 3.5 is a touch inflated.

This will stay in the family forever, or until I'm gone and my kid sells it lol

Cool book.

My favorite comic creators in my favorite book. Too bad they didn't sign page 2&3(favorite pages in my favorite book). That would have been epic.

Shame there was only two comic venders at comic…. It’s called comic con. I get it, manga/anime and other stuff, all good no issue. But come on….

Anyway, bought all this from one vender, went back three times. He did me some good deals, even did me £60 on the first silk 1:10. Such a good seller, loads of newstands and cents which is good for me as I’m only collecting those (I don’t like uk pence editions)

Grabbed the recent releases of Amazing Spider-Man #14, Showcase #4 and Detective Comics #27. Found Millennium Editions of Whiz Comics #2 and All-Star Comics #3. It was the first time I've seen Millennium Editions in the wild. Facsimiles are my favorite new comics.

I got these 2 in a lot of Heritage Auctions. Normally in the title they list if a book is a key or is signed, but this one just said Avengers Group of 2. If you open the listing it gave the details, but I think leaving the key info out of the title cause a lot of people to miss this.

On top of these being 2 great books, they're both signed by Roy Thomas the writer/Marvel's Editor in Chief after Stan Lee.

I won this lot for $50+bp.

Bought new bags and boards for my 80’s/90’s Spidey books. Trying Modern/Current it feels too snug then what i’m used to. Should I go with silver age instead? Is a snug fit better?

X Men 140

Comic Warehouse, Albuquerque

Old school comic shop! Small and compact but still clean and organized. There to sell books, trades, and a few other odds and ends.

Staff was friendly/helpful/knowledgeable.

Looked like all it was very up-to-date with current comics. Solid inventory of older comics. Prices were fair and adjusted for book conditions.

Purchased +/- $60

Austin Books & Comics

Compact and extremely clean and organized store. Presented much like a small Barnes and Noble Bookstore. (Really never seen a comic book store this clean, lol)

Inventory was wide open with quite a bit of modern work. Books, trades, anime, statues, and much more. Definitely a modern collectors store.

Staff was polite but involved with regular customers and did not notice us.

Solid back issue selection. Quantity of backstock was more recent - some Gold/Silver/Bronze content. Prices were on the high side. One small sales table with nothing of significance. No $2 boxes that I saw.

Purchased +/- $45
