It is very cool Robbie.
I missed out on the floppies but the Deluxe HC was sufficient enough Lol.
I did buy the regular hardcover.
Tried to buy the regular issues, but I missed a couple... sigh... 
Lol, It was worst for me. I saw the last issue advertised & thought WTF Neil Gaiman did a new Sandman series Ha ha

A few more new back issues, Enjoy!
Spider-Man #35, NM. June 1993. If your new to the collecting game then this is a fair warning!!! Carnage is a ticking time-bomb. I have a few more to get to complete the "Maximum Carnage" epic. Oh yeah!
ASM Annual #27, NM. 1993. 1st App: Annex. Poly-bagged with the cards.
UXM #267, NM. September 1990. The 2nd Gambit on a cover & 3rd appearance of him over-all. A great book to get that's worth nothing. Gambit is a true sleeper at the moment. Grab them while his snoozing!

I'm never sure what to do with those bagged comics. I know most of them are not worth much, but I don't want to risk being wrong about what to do with them. I know the bags decay and can damage the comic and if you don't open them, you can't read them, but... Is removing them from the bag damaging it? I have a bunch that I've opened and kept the bag on the other side of the board...
And yes, Carnage is really starting to take off. When I was starting to get my ASM run, I was told to look for 3 or 4 issues that are becoming harder and harder to find, but aren't expensive. #410, where Carnage fights Ben Reilly, #429-430 where Carnage fights Silver Surfer, and the Maximum Carnage issues. So, yeah, good call on going for the Maximum Carnage issues. The non-ASM issues may not go as high, but they'll still do OK, I think.

Yep! i know Doug!...I have about 20+ poly-bagged books most are still in good nic. for there age.
I bought some TOPPS comics last year which each had 4 x cards in them. The bags where very icky indeed, So i was more then happy to discard them.
Hey! I had that #410 (hated the cover) Lol. I'm lucky to have the ASM #429-430. Theirs another (3rd one) that he appeared in with/as Silver Surfer. What If...? #108 "Carnage Cosmic" Harder to find.

A local comic shop here put on a talk with Terry Gilliam years ago, that I was lucky enough to attend. When he asked my name for signing my Holy Grail, I told him initially 'eBay buyer'.

That Norem cover is the best part of Dragonslayer.

Nice books! I just got that FF for my collection with tattoo still in. I'm also a huge Gambit fan, so I love that X-men cover as well.

G'day fellow collectors, Well after the demise of our first forum (took me two years to build a back issues thread Lol).
But it's all good now & i'm happy to start anew!
So here we go...Enjoy.
Ghost Rider #15, Vol.3. July 1991. One of my favorite covers.
DC Comics Super Heroes, NM. 1989, 5th printing give'a'way.
Nice comics -
I especially like the Ghost Rider #15 - You forgot to mention it glows in the
dark!!! Oooooohhhh!!!
So that's how the heroes stay fit - The Good Health Activity book. (...insinuating you can be
a hero too if you eat your broccoli)

G'day collectors of the world, I'd thought i'd show some books from my collection that i haven't shown before. Enjoy!
Cap America #445, VF. November 1995. Bought of the newsstand & is so far my favorite Cap. cover, It's by Ron Garney.
Like to find a NM copy one day, Something to look forward too.
Spider-man Adventures #1, VF. December 1994. Beautiful embossed cover.
Spider-Man 2099 #25, VF+. My near perfect copy of a newsstand copy. I don't think i'll ever see one this good again 
The back!
Ghost Rider #5, NM. Vol.2 September 1990. A long forgotten Jim Lee cover.
Ghost Rider #6, NM. Vol.2 October 1990. A sweet Mark Texeira cover.
The Books of Magic #4, VF. August 1994. An early appearance of Death of the endless on a cover.
ASM #430, -NM. January 1998. Part 1. This is (as Doug has previously said in my thread) the books to get, Don't miss out on them.
ASM #431, -NM. February 1998. Part 2...First time he's called Carnage Cosmic, No-one can take over the Surfer & control him...The Carnage Symbiote did.
ASM #300, -NM. May 1988. My only copy of this most sort after book.

Nice books Gil. X-Men 24 cover I always liked, big fan of Gambit Rogue love story besides them being cool heroes. Looks like your ASM 300 is really sharp. I still don't own that issue. Batman 423 is a really sweet looking cover.

Thanks HR
I've had a few good reactions from X-Men #24 (tis' a classic cover indeed) reminded me of the 90's cartoon series.
Batman #423 was a surprise, Been after it for many a year but never had i expected to find a 3rd print.
Like to get another ASM #300 but they are worth there weight in gold now'a'days Lol.
