Comics OD

[greenygal]

One Ebay shipment, two from MileHigh (one of which hasn't even arrived yet) and four hours spent at a dealer's con. I am buried in back issues. And already starting to feel the insidious addictive effect: the more you read, the more you want... Next time I even glance at a back issue bin, somebody shoot me, okay? (Especially if it contains issues of Avengers.)

The list of what I got is many and miscellaneous, and I may have comments on some of it as I work through the pile (I've barely gotten started, although I can already tell that the Englehart run on JLA is almost as good as rumor paints it...)

But one acquisition in particular merits mention, and--even before I've read it!--some celebratory jumping-up-and-down...



Oh yes. That one. God, even the cover is stunning....

Yeah, I know, most of you have no idea why I'm excited, and explaining the details requires a crash course in the Legion of Super-Heroes and post-Crisis retcons. You're probably just going to have to take my word for it: this story is legend, and I've been looking for it for years. And now I own it. At cover price, yet. *sighs blissfully and clasps issue to chest*

Anyway. Lots of comics. Comics good. Going to go home now and read them... :)
