Some resent acquisitions, in shop and on sale now!

Good chunk of Amazing Spider-Man issues, including Hydro-Man’s 1st appearance, Tarantula’s 1st, and a bunch other solid oldies in real good condition.

*AMS-M 289 & 298 are a bit jacked up, as are a couple others but most are looking quite fine.

Daredevil books have been bagged, boarded, sorted, priced & in the “D” section of our back issues!

Which, if you haven’t heard by now is becoming somewhat of a big deal around town. Whispers of our back issue section have been heard as far as the furthest place you can think of.

Truth Story.

Besides Joe Crohn, who’s your favorite Joe (G.I.)???

Cuz chances are, we’ve got their first appearances in comic book format here at the shop!

Joe Crohn’s favorites are Shipwreck & Spirit!

@artbaltazarawyeah said his favorites are a tie between Snow Job & Golobulus!

Franco said he likes Tomax & Xamot because he’s into anything that has to do with twins!

@batmarc24 claims Lady Jaye & Sgt. Slaughter as the only Joe’s that matter!

Who you got!?!
