mysterio Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Well my show has already been a success. Met Dr. X, Bomber-Bob and Rick Starr, and picked up two lovely pre-heros including a nemesis book. Not much money left, but that's ok! Sweet! What was the nemesis comic? TOS #18 7.5, with a TTA #31 7.5 white thrown in for flavor. Pics in a few days when I get home to a real computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOS #18 7.5, with a TTA #31 7.5 white thrown in for flavor. Pics in a few days when I get home to a real computer. At long last I'm home and was able to make a few scans. This book was my first purchase literally 50 feet inside the door and 5 minutes into the con. It's been a tough one for me, and I realized that I'd had a watch on this very book on eBay for quite a while. Torpedo Comics cut me a solid deal and I was a happy man. This TTA #31 came from Dale Roberts' booth, and this also didn't take me long to find or pull the trigger on. The assists go to Dr. X and Bomber-Bob for pointing it out to me as well as extoling its many virtues until I took the plunge. My only real reluctance came from the fact that these two books ate up 80% of my budget and it was gone in the first half hour or so of the con! But that's the way it goes sometimes, and you can't pass up quality pre-hero when you find them. Most of the remaining crumbs of my budget went to this book. I'm not working on MT too heavily yet, but having picked up a #93 earlier this summer it was nice to add another early issue with really nice eye appeal and color. And that's my WW Chicago pre-hero extravaganza! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR.X Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 This TTA #31 came from Dale Roberts' booth, and this also didn't take me long to find or pull the trigger on.

My only real reluctance came from the fact that these two books ate up 80% of my budget and it was gone in the first half hour or so of the con! But it's irrelevant if you spent it five minutes into the con, or five minutes before it closes. You got a couple of killer books that your really happy to have in your collection now. Stuff like that happens to all of us once in a bit. A few years ago at C2E2 I spent every dollar I had on me ten minutes into the con for one book, but I went home with something I wanted, and it wasn't a high school picture of Greggy.

Bomber-Bob Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 After seeing both those books in hand, they look incredible for a 7.5 . I love it when CGC grades tight. Nice pickups ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're absolutely right about that, you need to buy these kinds of books when you see them. They just aren't that common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
