You'll definitely beat me. I'm down to about 82 issues to go. Including Giant Size. Is that on your list?

I have a Giant Size 1 and 2.

Got them at a flea market over 10 years ago now.

Justice League International #5 The Giffen/Demattis story where Batman knocks guy out with one punch. Paid .50 cents for it at a flea market. Its in really good shape and hopefully I can get Demattis to sign it. He hasn't been to a NYCC since 09' I think.

Question : a complete run of the first Secret War, in fine condition, for €40, does that seem like a good deal to you?

$25-$35 would seem to be a reasonable price depending on the condition

$20 euros for that condition.
1-7, 9-12 and are $1 books, really. 1 may be $5, 8 is a $20 in VF.

Do you want me to keep an eye out for a set for you? Reading copies?

No, thanks. It was just an opportunity that I had but I don't really feel like I need it.

After working this last week I officially now own:

Uncanny X-Men 35, 36, 38, 49

That includes the first Changeling with a Spider-Man appearance in 35, and the first Polaris and Mesmero in 49, along with the first Steranko on X-Men I believe.

I remember the original Knightfall, KnightQuest & Knightsend trades that were released in the early 00s. They only contained the main storylines. It looks like these new trades contain the whole saga.

Batman: The Killing Joke- Delux Edition- In Greek.

Alisha just got back from Greece and bought it for me. She wanted to get me a comic Greek an she said it was the only one she knew anything about. It's pretty cool.

Gen 13 #1 variants J. Scott Campbell sealed box set
It includes all 13 normal variants plus the ultra-rare Chromium variant exclusive to the box sets, which is signed by J. Scott Campbell. There are 4 total different box sets, each signed by a different creator. I've wanted to get all 13 covers for awhile and I had no clue there was a 14th exclusive variant cover.
