Deals & Steals

My LCS had a back issues sale this weekend, with 50 back issues for $50. To put that in context, I live in Australia, where a $2.99 comic sells for $4.50, and a $3.99 comic sells for $6.00. So this was a bargain.

I basically filled a few gaps in my collection and hunted down a heap of Joe Kelly and Mike Allred comics, among others. So here's what I got for $53AUD:

Action Comics 866-870 (Brainiac), 897/898 (Lex Luthor)
All Star Superman 10 (For framing purposes)
Amazing Spider-Man 612, 647, 655, Sunday Spectacular (Joe Kelly, Marcos Martin)
American Vampire 9, 13 (I'm catching up)
Batman 667-669, 672-674, 683 (The gaps in my Morrison run)
Batman and the Mad Monk 1
Batman Odyssey 1
Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight 6, 7, 9 (Gothic)
Captain America 600, 601
DC Comics Presents: Superman: Infestation (Joe Kelly, $12 comic for $1!)
Franklin Richards, Son of a Genius: Super Summer Spectacular and Everybody Loves Franklin
Jonah Hex 50 (Darwyn Cooke)
Spider-Man (Marvel Adventures)
Seaguy: Mickey Eye 1
Spider-Man: Fever 1
Supergirl 10, 11, 18 (Joe Kelly)
Superman 666 (Simonson), 707
Superman/Batman Annual 1 (Kelly)
The Authority v4 1, 2 (Morrison, for laughs)
WildCats v4 1 (Morrison, again for laughs)
The Spirit 1 (Darwyn Cooke)
X-Statix 19-25 (Allred, the Avengers arc)

So yeah, I'd say $50AUD well spent.
