Comic Book Blow-Out Sale!!
Posted: Sun Sep 18, 2011 1:18 am
So my local comic book store The Time Capsule has a bi-annual (now combined twice to make a quad-annual?-is that how you'd say that?) back-stock comic book sale!
Everything up to $2.95 is .50 cents and everything between that and $3.95 is 1.00 (according to cover prices).
So I got some crazy stuff.
I bought as much Nightcrawler related material as humanly possible, and I'll be returning on Wednesday to see what I (and other collectors) have missed!
So far I've got:
Nightcrawler #1, I think the first part to the series that I believe is the 12-parter people speak of? By Aguirre-Sacasa?
X-Men Unlimited #49 Which is a GREAT Kurt story, with wonky artwork.
Giant Sized Spider-Man 50th Issue! Which I used to own. First appearance of The Grim Hunter, right after Kraven's death, I believe.
3 Parts of the X-Calibre series from AoA,
Excalibur #'s 29, 105, 109, 112, 119, 121, 122, 123
And of course the books I would normally have in my pull.
Ultimate Comics: All-New Spider-Man #1 FANTASTIC STORY! READ THIS BOOK!! PROWLER!!!
New 52: Batman & Robin It's like nothing to rebooted. I don't get what's going on. And also, as predicted, way too much dark-negative, debbie-downer type-casted dialogue coming from both of them.
ASM #669 Which is the Spider-Island story. It's getting considerably more interesting (more so than I had thought it would) with each issue. Also, Dan Slott is one funny fucker and he writes fantabulous Spider-Dialogue.
Any sales like this around where you guys are? What do you usually grab? What do the sales/prices usually entail?
Also -- What else should I be on the prowl for? This sale is all month long, so I need suggestions!
