I have a lot of good hopes in the pipeline. Got these at the same spot this week. It’s just weird to see them for $10 in high grade so I’m compelled to buy, you see…love that purple night cover.

Mail call: Marvel Team-Ups coming in hot at the end of summer. Two of these have jewel inserts, which hopefully excites someone out there more than me.

Back from CGC: I don’t often submit 80’s books, but when I do, I hope they get 9.8’s.

Back from CGC: Pretty tough in 9.8, so this was a nice return. Got me on the Comic Tom show too, so I guess i’m part of the comic fam now.

This was my best subbed ASM in recent months. Pretty cool to get back. Would like to keep it, currently assessing and being tortured by cross border uncertainty.

Con pick-ups: Before the Ottawa Con on Sunday, I went to a nearby card show that had a couple of comic tables.
I would up rounding up my piles instead of asking for a deal because I don't think they realized just how nice these are.

I'm fortunate the 9.8 gods have blessed my comic intention (if not collection) many, many times these last few months.
I can't keep everything, but defintely sometimes wonder what that would look like.

Back from CGC: This came back as the single-highest grade copy to date. Which entitles me to a free drink any time I’m in Pecos City.
