About 30 of most recent Punishers, last 20 Hellblazers and the last 20 100 Bullets for $50.

Not a stunning deal, but it's good reading.

Those Mignola Hulks are very underrated, I picked up a complete run of them out of .50 cent boxes, in NM shape, too! :thumb:

What's special about IM #169? I'm too lazy to look. I do love me some IM #128 and IM #150, sweet covers! :thumb: :thumb:

I've been waiting weeks for someone to ask me that, thanks Bro J.

IM #169. 1st James Rhodes as IM
(IM #118 1st James Rhodes). I just refuse to believe that with RDJ and Gwyneth in the IM movie its not gonna be big. And with Terrence Howard as James Rhodes my hunch is his stock is gonna go up...way up.

And if it doesn;t I'm out about a buck or 2 :lol:

Now I'm too lazy to look. I'm gonna bag 'em tomorrow and I'll give you a run down then Magnus :thumb:

From what I was told by Hulk 181 (If I remember correctly) MIgnola only did interiors for about 3 of the issues but he did the covers for maybe 10. And they're really beautiful covers.

Ah f@ck it I'll post the numbers and some pics shortly :lol:

OK issues are 301-313 I believe. I got kinda interested in them when Hulk181 posted a few pics and they looked pretty cool....That was about 6 months ago :lol:

Anyway here's some pics

Hey! I just bought those (and another 100 plus books) from sd2416. I didn't know those were by Mignola. :thumb: :clap:

I'll be looking for that in the bargain bins at the local comic show tomorrow. Show tomorrow at Burnham Bowl, Myron. Not sure if it's worth coming all the way to Milwaukee for you, but I thought I'd mention it (hopefully you read this thread)!

I didn't have to ask about those issues, but I did get a grin and mentally go "atta boy" when I read your post, man! :thumb:

I've got to say though, it's pretty funny because (and I swear what I'm about to say is true) I guess I'm such an Iron Fan that it never even entered my mind until the post above that my IM collection might jump in price for a while if the movie breaks big. Never even occured to me, yet here I am thinking ahead about Miller's Ronin in another post.... how about them apples?

I'd love to see some of those back issues go up in value...even if its one I don't own (although the James Rhodes ones are pretty cool candidates)..I mean its been IM #55 and then nada...the guy deserves some more hot back issues!

only 2 of these in 9.8 in the census, 2nd print

not the exact one I got, but I got one in a 9.8, exactly as you see here, my seller took his pic down already, funny how much these are going for in 9.8, I lucked out a couple Sundays ago and eBay watch lists went down, ended up getting it for a little over 20, of course I realize its not a major book, but what a sweet cover, the same book the next day went for 100+

Here's one I'm particularly proud of, I only found out it existed a couple of months ago when Knightt put one up. I had to buy a stack of books to get it, so if anyone's looking for some Iron Man books from this series or the third series let me know, I can hook you up cheap!

Thanks, I was thrilled to get it!

Can you tell me who signed it? It looks like an "S" at the beginning. Is it Scott Lobdell?
