Thought it would be cool to get the forums going by starting a topic on what's new in your collection this week. I scored some random number 1's to add to the collection. Nothing crazy but I thought they were a cool addition to the collection.

How close are you to finishing the run of tomb of dracula?

Nowhere near as close as I want.  Prices in today's market make it harder and harder for me to complete my runs. I'm working on ASM pretty much non stop but I still fill in Tomb of Draculas every chance I get. I am starting to find it harder and harder to turn down anything older though so that slows me down on the runs as well

Our lead time for cleaning and pressing is usually 1 or 2 weeks.
Thanks for the shout out Rixmaxx

Hi fellow 'old' collector. I sent you a PM last night about some comics I have you may want, so did you get it?

I did see your message but did not get a chance to checkout your stuff earlier. I'm checking it out right now though, thanks for the message.

I have a complete run of ASM, took me along time, thankfully I've had it done for quite awhile, today's prices would make it impossible.

A few more ASM added to the collection this week. #54 and #69 aren't high grades but they will do for now.

You picked up some great issues. I love that ASM 201 with the pink circles and Punisher and the Venom cover and the early Kingpin cover. Who am I kidding, I love all ASM issues.

I really like that cover as well. I actually bought that same book CGC 9.8 for my brother years ago as a gift due to he loves the Punisher and while I love my brother I wasn't about to buy him a graded ASM #129 But every time I see it at his house I kinda selfishly wished I had kept it for myself

Got some randoms today from a local flea market. Nothing crazy but I think they are an awesome addition. Wish that Astonishing Tales didn't have that little piece missing at the top but oh well.
