I had to share my excitement somewhere so to the one or two people who read this...I bought a couple batches of bulk comics that had "DarkHawk" to finish my collection as exact condition wasnt important, In one batch I found a "DarkHawk" #25 signed by Mike Manley. The signature is small and I might not have noticed but a certificate of authenticity fell out as I was checking the pages to see which of the multiple #25s I had was going into my permanent collection. So "heck ya, autographed comic from nowhere!!" Thanks for reading.

Always fun finding autographed comics. Even better when it's one that you're already collecting!

Finding an autographed copy when you weren’t even expecting it is about as good as it gets, especially with the COA tucked inside like that. Darkhawk #25 signed by Mike Manley is a really cool bonus, even more so since you were just filling gaps and not hunting for signatures. Congrats on the lucky find, and thanks for sharing — those “out of nowhere” wins are always fun to read about.

Finding that made me want to buy more bulk, but I only buy new any more. There were a few times when I was a kid my Dad would bid on a box for me at auctions. We wouldnt bid high, prob never more than $20, as the boxes were just junk that I saw a couple comics in. No huge finds but I got a "Showcase" #58 with no cover and a Spiderman first Black Cat that had a torn cover and other damage. Sold the Spiderman for $30 or $40 years ago.
