Got mine today--thank you so much Mr. Pete.

Are you getting rid of all your comics, or just some?

Nope, just most of them.  There are some that are worth selling, I'm holding back on those for now.  I have 5 longboxes full of comics left and no good reason to keep 90% of them.  I love getting singles monthly, but in the long term they're a huge pain.  I MUCH prefer trades/HCs.

How nice is Alan Davis's art in those couple issues of FF he did?  Real nice.

Holy guacamole, Pete!  Thanks so much!!!  There were some true gems in there.

I don't know if this was intentional, but my Pete lot included a Wizard mag from 2000 featuring none other than your friendly neighborhood Spiderman on the cover. 

Here's our boy Buster checking out said issue whilst recovering from ding-dong surgery...



You rock the most, Pete!

I can't believe you named your dog B_buster.  I included Wizard in a couple packages, then started feeling bad about it, so I recycled about 25-30 of them rather than take up perfectly good space in someone's package.  This of course was all pre-Wizard discussion on the show.

Yet another reminder - I still have a LOT of comics up for grabs, for nothing.  Anyone else can DM me your address and get something free in the mail.

Pete, I got mine today too!!! Thanks so much man. My daughter collects as well, it's our bonding thing and she was elated to see that there was a Pokimon book in our pack. I too got a wizard (the Alex Ross Special) which I'm in no way bummed about because it was free. Got a lot of cool indie books in my pack too. Pete, you're the man and that is no joke.
You look like a really healthy Arthy Lang.

Let me tell you about this guy Pete. Out of the goodness of his heart, he decided to send me free comics but sadly had them returned due to a shipping error. Pete contacted me then, saying they had come back, and I told him "please don't sweat it, it's the thought that counts." For anyone else, that would have been enough to get them off the hook. Was it that way for Pete? Hell no. Pete, in all his infinite glory, instead tried AGAIN to send me the comics, this time succeeding. When they arrived just today, I immediately knocked the postman out with the brick they had formed, and rushed here to say THANK YOU PETE! You are truly one heck of a guy.

PS: I just opened it, and these are not lame comics. These are ALL top notch works! Eightball, Grendel, the list goes on! Wow Pete. THANKS AGAIN!

thanks, man!   I think the only person waiting now is iAmBaronVonTito, whose went out at the same time as yours, I think.

I'll do another round at some point in the next month.  Still lots of stuff to give away.
