thank you all from my wife and I

I hesitate to post this. Not because of the nature of the post, but rather because, believe it or not, I am an intensely private person when it comes to my family. If this was about me, hell, I would have posted this a week ago, but this isn't about me, it's about my son. Six weeks or so ago, my wif...

John, if you REALLY don't want those Hellblazer issues, I'll take them all an...

my LCD here in Memphis is having a blowout of old stuff, thankfully when they do it, they do it by selling them as sets. Here's what I grabbed today JLA (1st series) 217-259 JLA (2nd series) 1-83 (almost a whole run now as I have most of 90-the end) JLE 1-64 and annuals 1-4 Dr. Strange 40-81 (primar...
