Someone should start a site where wives of "comic addicts" can go and vent some of their frustrations. Maybe that will help ease some of the butt chewing on the hubbies.

hey why not make that an add-on feature of this site?

My girlfriend (who will probably become my wife) is extremely tolerant and I have actually got her started reading them!

Course...she can't really complain 'cause I make the money and as long as the bills are paid I can do anything I want with my money!

nice deal on those pre-unity runs too!

I assume that when your dating it "your" money, when your married it's "our" money and "her" money. This is no more "your" money.

Uh, is that the Gobbledygook from 1984??

Unfortunately, no. The original has a black and white cover. The one in the auction is from 1986.

What was the condition of 300?

SolarFan777 · Post by **SolarFan777** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 11:46 am

OK here is a X-O 1/2 gold maybe in VF+ condition found in a bunch of overstock bins.
The guy gave it to me for $5.

I'm happy with that...

I took a big chance on this auction and broke a few of my eBay rules by bidding but it worked out very well. I got the package today and there were 4 Unity REDs not 3.

The worst part is i'm sure i've looked at that and stopped reading the description before it got to the unity books.
wow, that seller's *SQUEE*...nice find.
