2 other dudes/known ebay sellers were bidding aggressively on Marvel/DC bronze & silver (no major bargains there) but apparently neither was familiar with Usagi Yojimbo.
Nice! :thumb:

I also picked up:
2 sets of Legends (1986 DC L.S.) for $10
A stack of Civil War issues with 6 of the 7 Turner variants and 3 sketch variants for $10
and Planet Hulk 92-102 for $10
That is some Ebay kung-fu fo sho!

I bought a Thor 229 for $2 this sunday. I didn't think too much about it, but then I learned something.

This and daredevil 115 have a preview of hulk 181.

These don't go for a lot of coin, maybe $20 on the right day in this condition, but thought it was interesting.

Where are we going and why am I in this hand-basket?

Interesting, I never realized this before. Certainly adds a collectable element to each book :hm:

Not at this time, I used to collect Usagi back in the day but never owned this book - just enjoying it right now. If I would decide to sell I'll give you a heads-up :thumb:

Shadowman series 3 issue 6 page 23 (last page splash) $100 shipped.
Brought page 22 off SonicDan last year.
In the comic, page 22 is the nicer page of the two.
In original artwork, the last page comes off better.

Add the the fact I have a hand drawn sketch to finis off the story (shadowman series 3 issue 7) .
And now from my own submission to cgc a shadowman 6 9.8.

:clap:
I wish their was a Spinal Tap comic, and I had a copy CGC graded at 11.

Shadowman statue $80 shipped with insurance.
Thought it was a good deal.
Packed absolutly horrendously.
Should of taken photos. ~~~~~~Actually should of taken photos for insurance reasons facepalm

Was certain its arm with the gun was smashed off ~ seriously ~ It didn't even fit in the box.

Part of the box was left open with the full side of the statue exposed. ~ and the gun arm had made a big indentation on the exterior of the box. 1/2 of one side of the length of the box was not even a box, it was open, unprotected accept for one piece of brown packing tape crossing the middle(as in crossing the gap at 90 degrees). You could see the full interior of the box and statue.

But it arrived in one piece ~ THANKYOU DHL
