Next week I am restocking the Marvel figures so send me your wantlists for any Marvel figures you have been searching for please.

 

I refilled the new comic stock yesterday with the last year of Action comics, Batman, Detective, Amazing Spiderman, Ultimate X-men, Uncanny X-Men, Wolverine, the Planet Hulk storyline, World War Hulk, DC's 52 and Countdown series, and Justice Society.

We bought a collection last night which has some pretty cool indy comics which are very tough to find these days. Some of the highlights are Terry Mooore's Strangers in Paradise #1,2, Hepcats #1, 2, Comico Primer #2 (The first appearance of Grendel), signed copies of Steve Bissette's Taboo graphic novels, and Robert Kirkman's Walking Dead #1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Seeing as how there are over 450+ indy books in this collection it should fill some holes in a few of your collections. See you soon.

The highlights of this collection are the two rare "Hamburger Face/Head" figures. There are 22 different action figures in this collection from Series 1 and 2 only, which came out in the early 1990s and are long gone from the mass market retail stores.

We have acquired the following runs of books:

DC Men of War 1-17, Weird War Tales # 4-117,  DC Simon & Kirby's Boy Commandos 1-2, DC GI War Tales 1-4, DC Army At War #1, DC Blitzkrieg 1-5, and DC Four Star Battle Tales #1-7.

This huge collection starts with Jonah Hex's third appearance in Weird Western Tales #12 and ends at Jonah Hex # 81. There are two copies of Jonah Hex #1. We also have the complete sci-fi futuristic series Hex available. Remember that these classic western comics runs are very hard to complete and will not last long so come and get them.

Here's an awesome batch of older Phantom comics! Look for the Flash Gordon and Mandrake the Magician comics to be available soon as well.

The Phantoms by company available are:

Gold Key 8,9,11,14, King 18, 20,22,23, Charlton 32,34,38,39,41,42,45,46,47,48,50,51,52,55,56,

58,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,72, and 73. 

 

There are a lot of oddball ones in this batch. There are runs of Aliens and Predator comics, Lobo comics, Hellboy comics, Fused, Jinx #1 (Bendis), lots of Punisher, Venom, and Wolverine stuff as well. The wantlists have been pulled so you guys can have at them now. See you soon!

Here's a pretty cool batch of comics. These are pretty inexpensive comics.

I have about half of the complete run left after filling the wantlists for these classic comic books.

The best of this batch of new singles was undoubtably the Kingdom Come Superman Super Rare figure we sold last night for only $75.00. One of our local competitors is selling the same piece for $249.99.

We still have a nice selection of Super Rares, commons, and uncommons available at our unusually fair pricing. We do not gouge on the singles. Try us out next time you want to fill in your next set.

This is one of the most affordable ways to own some of these classic early silver age 1960s Marvel comic books. We have just added hundreds of Marvel's Greatest comics (Reprints the earliest Fantastic Fours), Marvel Superheroes (Reprints the earliest Hulk comics), Marvel Triple Action comics (Reprints the earliest Avengers comics), and Marvel Double Feature comics (Reprints the earliest Tales of Suspense comics featuring Captain America and Iron Man stories) to our silver and bronze age backstock at some very reasonable prices! Many of these books will sell at or below just $2.99 each.

We also carry a nice selection of Marvel Essentials, Marvel Masterworks, DC Archives, and DC Showcase Presents books as well. Check them out while you are stopping by our store for another great way to read some pretty teriffic stories from the beginning!

We received in around 50+ more Our Army At War comics this morning and I know that there are several of our customers who mentioned they would send in their wantlists this week. Now's the time. I am stocking the store pretty well these days on many older DC, Marvel, and Charlton war comics.

This past week, we were asked by several of our customers to restock the original Jim Starlin issues of Captain Marvel. Well, here they are people. Come and get them.

Thanks again for your backstock suggestions. You have helped me tremendously to get in the books you have been wanting rather than by my speculating. Please keep dropping off your suggestions and wantlists. I do appreciate it.

We picked up a small run of Akira and also Lone Wolf & Cub books this morning. They are in great shape and in the original format they were printed here in the states. Send me your requests and I'll get them pulled aside for you..

This newest batch of books includes five long boxes of Fantastic Four, Avengers, Jack Kirby Fourth World titles, Daredevil, Captain America, and Iron Man comics.  Thanks for all the wantlists you emailed me recently. I have sent out the email notices to everyone whose orders we have filled this morning already.

This is one of my most requested comics. I picked up a nice copy of the book last night. Call me soon. It won't last long!

Thanks again for everyone's support in enabling me to make so many great new comic and toy purchases. Without our brisk sales on the many collections we have been getting in I would have to slow down to have space in the store to process the new stuff. The good news is that we are selling it just as fast as it is coming in! This will allow me to buy the inventories from two stores which will be closing down soon. I'll let you all know more details after the two separate deals are completed in the next week or so. I am looking forward to over 650+ long boxes from just these two deals alone.

The earliest Conan is a beautiful copy of Conan the barbarian # 4. This collection spanned all twenty years of the run and was remarkably complete and well preserved.

I have pulled everyone's wantlist requests aside for our customers who sent in their standing orders. 

You tell me which comics you want me to find and I let you know when I find it. What a deal! Ask any of our regulars, there is nobody in the comic business more agressive about chasing down books you can't seem to find than me.

I picked up a batch of the Resident Evil action figure line today. They are all loose with the accessories and in great displayable shape still.

We just received a large new batch of singles from the last three DC sets, including the brand new Crisis set. This terrific set features some fantastic sculpts of many classic DC characters. Some of my favorites were the Metal Men, the original Teen Titans, Blue Beetle, and the Royal Flush gang.

I picked up a bunch of original Batman comic books this afternoon. I still have issues # 19, # 21,  and # 24 available. Finding the Golden age Batman comics is a special treat. Needless to say, they will sell quickly at my pricing, so come and get 'em while you can!

This collector read every war comic, western comic, and Disney comic for 60 years. There are nearly complete runs of Weird Western Tales , Star Spangled War Stories, GI Combat, Sgt. Fury (2x copies of #1), Our Army at War, Tomahawk, 3 long boxes of Disney comics, etc...

There are many superhero comics as well, including many Batman, Superman, Teen Titans, Avengers, etc...

He told me this really cool story about his parents buying him and his brother comics and letting them read the books every Christmas eve until they feel asleep waiting for Santa Claus to come.

This was what being a comic reader was about back in the day. Comic books were about experiencing the adventures of the Two Gun Kid, or Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, or bringing an understanding of the heroics of our soldiers in the faraway battlefields of World War ll.
