Hi BrotherJ, The Stewel comix were a nice score . You don't see either of them come up often. The "Eternal Truth" comes up a few times a year. I have seen it maybe a dozen times on Ebay in last 6 years. I snatched NM copies of "Eternal Truth" & Sammy Saved" both from "Sonday Funnies" about 6 months ago for $1.99 each. on Ebay. There were no other bidders which surprised me at the time. They came in well packaged & were beautiful copies and also had some letters from the Artist which was a surprise and not expected.

Wow, that was a steal and a half, awesome!

four (4) short boxes for the revolution...

stage52 (12/4/2008)I almost always get what I want at a great price by being patient especially on Ebay... Patience is a Virtue

great point & i am in complete agreement. patience seems to be a virtue ESPECIALLY w/ u-comix. there are so many little loopholes that the savvy buyer can exploit... abebooks, mature audiences (eBay), mis-listings, the current economic situation, etc. a lot of buyers simply do not know what they have... whether it be the overpriced reprints (avoid) or NM buy it now 1st printings (cha-ching). and even though we end up competing w/ eachother sometimes... boards like this make us even more savvy.

To pick up on that thought, I landed an Air Pirates # 2 back a few years from someone selling what they thought were Disney comics.

Read Lost Cause Comix-
"Underground at it's deepest"

I'm very excited to finally have a copy of this! Thanks, Eggs!

I also picked up some other books at sweet prices:

Projunior (1st)

Snarf #8 (1st)

Knockabout #2 (Checkered Demon cover)

Rubber Duck Tales #1

Yellow Dog #13/14

EDIT: also in today (came through UPS, while the above books came USPS):

Death Rattle Vol. 2 #8 (1st Xenozoic Tales) CGC 9.6

I would have preferred a cheaper, raw copy, but it's been impossible to find.
