eBay does have buyer protections. Literally no favor to the seller, so I would buy that Batman book based on those pictures if I was in the market. If the book never arrives, eBay will get involved.
It was a pleasure getting to see you, have launch, and talk a bit. Love the comic knowledge you gave others. I also collected a bunch of stickers from sticker people and am proud to add them to my collection. This was my first Terrificon and it was awesome. Can't wait to head back again next year.
Always appreciate your comic book knowledge, even more so with gold and silver age books. Thanks for sharing your experience at the con buying comics and encountering the sticker people!
love the Neal Adams covers. TErrificon looks interesting. how was the walking on the con floor - my biggest problem is typically the wall to wall people. I go to NYCC every year so I know the problem well.
Hahaha that's me in the green shirt and glasses two people in front of you in line. Can't believe I didn't recognize you! Would have definitely said hello and how much I enjoy the channel. (I did run into Mike from Lunch Money Comics and got to chat with him.) Hope you had a nice show.
What a great con! I prefer cons that aren’t wall to wall people like NY Comicon. Plus free parking! lol Those Neal Adam’s covers looked great! Nice score! Terrificon had a great variety of collectibles. There were a bunch of celebrities plus creators that were not promoted. The highlight for me was meeting Michael Golden…one of my all-time favorite artists. Since I didn’t know he would be there, I had to scramble to find a clean copy of Dr. Strange Vol. 2 #55 from vendors to get Mr. Golden’s signature. I didn’t care about getting it witnessed. I just wanted it for my PC. I rarely geek out but meeting and chatting with him was a genuine thrill.
Jim, your Clown Comic Book's original on-sale date has been identified at the Grand Comics Database: Dec. 14, 1945. Source was Catalog of Copyright Entries, Periodicals. Always go to the GCD as your source of info for older comics. We are constantly updating the entries to benefit collectors. And currently we do NOT have any Mac Raboy artwork credits on Kid Eternity -- sorry.
Gene Autry's version of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was in Christmas Vacation, so if you've seen that movie, you know the song. But I'm one of those weird people who has actually seen some of his movies. Great grab. You're also getting me with that Neal Adams goodness. Love his work. Looks like you had a great time at Terrificon, Jim. Awesome haul.
As always, an informative and entertaining video. Love your insights and eye for DC and "esoteric" books. Also, in addition to all those things Gene Autry js know for, he also owned the California Angels for almost 40 years.
@@Mike_oliver1313 I've done statistical analyses for transportation crashes; distracted driving is as dangerous as DUI. If you are going to make a video in your car, don't do it while driving. I'm a people person and love going to parties; just want people arriving alive, mate.
100 years from now they will have a “Bronzeville Collection” Pedigree where eligible issues will be verified by a small white circular sticker in the lower right corner of the outer bag where the year the book was released was chronicled.
