Congrads Mike! Loved the X-Men, your getting there. The Warlock series by Starlin was very weird, but was beautifully drawn. TOD #1 epic series, I was luky enough to meet Genre Colan once. In Sept of 98 at the Thunderbird hotel in Sept of 98. I ended up sitting with him at his table for over three hours. He just asked me if I'd like to sit at his table I said sure. The next day I had to drive back to WI. I then drove another six hours non stop to get to Milw. By the airport to meet Alex Ross too. We had been talking by phone for a few months. When he told me he was doing a small show in Milw. I was exhausted but had a epic weekend. Gene and Alex used to both call me too. Which was very cool too.

Batgirl vs Catwoman...great story and great book. I used to care about condition, but I am realizing sometimes if you want to finish runs, get the crap copy first...you can always upgrade later, especially for Silver Age and oldr books. BTW I just completed the entire run of DC Comics Presents...that was expensive for a run of 101 books (97 regular, 4 annuals)

Yeah, they had a Batman day at the comic shop where I buy comics. Sadly, I didn't pick up any Batman related books being Batman Fan. The sale they had was on newer books and graphic novels.

Although The In-Betweener isn't a well known character he is a very powerful character as the representation of duality and an agent of Master Order and Lord Chaos. Claremont/Byrne/Austin X-men - nuff said! Tomb Of Dracula #1 is definitely a huge Bronze Age book and for that price you couldn't pass it up.

Love the channel - couple of stories you might enjoy. First, I bought a TOD #1, about a 9.0 for $9 - around 1990. Too bad I didn't also pick up a #10. I'm 5 issues away from completing the run, my #10 is a reprint. This was after getting back into collecting around 1985. I sold my origin collection in 1980. I had an X-men #1, maybe a 2.0/2.5 - I probably sold that for about $10. The prize of my collection was a Strange Tales 110, about an 8.0 - sold that for about $20. I also had ASM 39 in very high grade - 8.5/9 which I'm sure was sold for 5-8 bucks. Boo.... I saw a slabbed copy of Strange Tales 110 somewhere. Why? Doctor Strange isn't on the cover, so what's the point? - I hate slabbed books - If I win one in an auction, I'm opening it up....

That was a really good show. I bought a couple of those tomb of Dracula's that's when I was a kid and I read them but I just always looked at the covers while I was buying my Captain America and iron Man and avenger comics. Over the years I read an occasional Batman and occasional Superman. Batman versus the predator 2 was a cool four issue mini series. The three main characters were Batman the predator and the huntress and I believe it was a crossover between DC and one of the Indies maybe dark horse.
