Is that supposed to be the Swap Meet and not here? Or did the conversation move suddenly?

Nah, it's just me posting it here because I didn't want to use the Swap Meet. You know, I can't find any of the stuff you guys would be looking for so I'm ill-at-ease using the Swap Meet.

It doesn't matter whether you can easily reciprocate. The whole thing is for us to help each other get stuff we want. So if there is stuff you're looking for, let us know so we can help.

Secret Six: Danse Macabre

Of all my new trades, I have yet to read all the Secret Six trades I brought. Right now I'm only missing Cat's in the Cradle & Reptile Brain

Cat's in the Cradle is the newest one. I don't think Reptile Brain is out yet is it? The story is fairly new as the story right after just finished it's 3 issue arc. But After finally catching up on all of Secret Six I have to say I wish I'd been reading it all along. Great book.

Just got

Heroes for Hire 1-7 of the current series. Heard great things so I picked it up today kind of for free to read and see if I want it. otherwise I'll take it back tomorrow for resale. Working there has it's perks.

A very ratty, crappy copy of:

Justice League of America vol 1 62

then-
Siege 1-4

Boss got it in an order of books I think and he gave it to me for free. I also was working for 11 hours straight putting together comic packs and sorting boxes, so I'd say it was evened out. I may take Siege back and package it as I really just wanted to read it to see what all had happened.

Uncanny X-Men Annual 3
Justice League of America vol 1 62

My boss seems to want to continue buying me JLA 62, as if it's a running joke to always find and buy me a copy of that book. This one's in better shape than the first, and he said if he sees others in moderate shape he'll just get them for me because he can.

Good day to raid a sale box, as everything ended up being a quarter a piece.

I didn't realize until after I got it that it's the entire Incredible Her run. And I think we have a pack of the Prince of Power and Fall of an Avenger minis that came after it that we put together. If We do, I'm going back for it later on. So far this has been a very good read, as I've gotten up through the Secret Invasion Tie-in. Good stuff.

Gen13 vol. 2 #43
Gen13 vol. 2 #44
Superman/Gen13 #1
Superman/Gen13 #2

All of them drawn by Lee Bermejo, one of my very favourite artists. I'm a fan like that. Never thought of looking through the back issues bins at my shop for those. And he had them all, well, almost all.

Uncanny X-Men 42 First 'death' of Professor X (Changeling)
Uncanny X-Men 60 First full Sauron

Neither is in perfect shape, but I got both of them for just over $60 total. Now I have 4 issues that fall in the first 100 of Uncanny, and only about 15 or so above 100 missing.

If you ever find any you have at a decent price, through your store or whatever let me know.

I'm trying to finish my run of Uncanny.

We have Uncanny #36, though it's not in the best condition, and it's priced at $25.

We also have Uncanny #95 for $99 as it's in quite possibly the best condition I've ever expected to see that book.

He'll ship just about anywhere, so keep in mind you'd need to add that to the cost. I know just a week ago he said there was some kind of shipping strike for Canada that had kind of added to the price for some ebay he was going to ship to Canada, but I dunno any more about that. Check them out on Facebook as Comics Cubed in Kokomo, and you can get more info there.

Postal Service in Canada resumed today! Just so you know.

I have both of those, everything I need is 88 and below.

I'll check them out on Facebook.

Gotcha. So it seems my buying what you needed may've prevented you from getting anything you needed. You don't need 36 though?

He usually picks up books off of eBay quite a bit to resell in the store, as well as tossing up books from his own collection from time to time. We've also got the first 3 appearances of the Teen Titans up for sale in the store.

I do not need 36. I think I have everything between 18 and 38. I only need about 40 books left between 2 and 88 to finish the run.

Do you have those 3 TT books?
