I think this series was important for making Black Widow relevant.
Black Widow #1
Black Widow #1 (Variant)
Black Widow #1 (Dynamic Forces Variant)
Black Widow #2
Black Widow #3
I may have more.

I liked Moon Knight, but I wish they stuck to him having multiple identities in this series. They sort of drifted away from that as I recall.
Excellent art!
Moon Knight #1
Moon Knight #6 (Norem covers are cool)
Moon Knight #13
Moon Knight #21 (like the B&W covers)
Moon Knight #28 (one of my favorite MK covers)
Moon Knight #29 (great cover!)
Moon Knight #35 (my last issue)
It looks like I have #1-33 & #35. Of course I have the Platt issues somewhere.

I have that Moon Knight #29 'tis a nice cover.
I liked the Marvel Knights Punisher series, Only have a couple of them. Never really sort out the others, Although i do have Marvel Knights #1 (Group Cover).
I have some Punisher comics from this time period. I wasn't a big Punisher fan. Normal guys with guns never impressed me. Normal guys in bat logo spandex never impressed me a lot either. LOL!
If a sniper can take the character out with ease, I don't get too excited.

Cool.
Continuity had some excellent art. People's biggest criticism was that Continuity books looked like they were all drawn by Neal Adams clones. Neal actually redrew some of the faces so the characters had a consistent look.
People would say that and I'd say "How is that bad?"
Deodato drew some of the last Samuree comics. Many of the stories were weak, but I never had a problem with their art. Armor #4 (Vol. 1) is generally considered to be one of the best stories that Continuity ever published.

I think these are neat...
Marvel 1991 Annual Report #1
Marvel 1992 Annual Report #2
Marvel 1993 Annual Report #3
Marvel 1994 Annual Report #4
The Ultraverse make a cameo #4 and there is a reference to them on the first page. Ultraverse collectors may want to add this to their list.

My well read original copy that I bought off the spinner rack as a kid.
Ghost Rider #1
I should have upgraded this. This is the copy I bought as a kid. Strangely, by the time he got his own series, I didn't like what they were doing with him. I always like the Marvel Spotlight issues better.

I was compiling a set of scans for some specific whitman titles and thought it was fascinating that collectors were not trying to collect the whitman logo color variants. Some are yellow, some are white.

Don't believe i've seen or heard of those before Defiant, Nice!
I like oddball stuff. I acquired these all at different times. It took me awhile to get them all. These went out to stockholders of Marvel.
I don't think they published anymore after the market collapsed, but I could be wrong.

Wow cool book.
Love Ghost Rider.
I'm still a Mike Ploog fan to this day. I was a big fan of Ghost Rider and I like the movies. I don't care what the movies were even about. A flaming skull is cool no matter what he's doing.

This has a backup Doctor Who story by Dave Gibbons. 
First series of Moon Knight was really fun.
And I dig those Micronauts. I even have a few of the toys.
I have Marvel's first Dr. Who stories with him on the cover. I can't remember what title it was in... maybe Marvel Premiere.

If you REALLY love comics, that "Secrets Behind the Comics" is a must-have. (And I DON'T have... YET!)
I'm still working on my full run of Battlestar Galactica and Micronauts. I ended up with about 4 copies of Micronauts #1 - "Oooo! THIS one looks better than the last one I bought!"
Keep this stuff a-coming! Cuz I'm a-lookin'!
Micronauts #1 was one of the hottest books around in 1982. It was selling for $10 which was a lot for a new comic back then. After getting out of comics for ten years, Micronauts #1 taught me a lot. It was back in dollar boxes in 1992. My purchase of Iron Man #1 for $10 had gone up to be worth about $150. It taught me to not get hooked on fads even though it's a nice book to own. My X-Men #1 had gone up in value from $100 to $600. I learned to not put confidence in fads and I learned that key books will have a long term steady increase. I learned to buy the key books in a series as early as possible and then fill in the cheaper ones later.

I don't care much about this, but it was a premium book that was harder to get.

Homage Studios had a fan club offering back around the time of Wildcats #2 I think. It was early. I was not a big image fan, but I joined the club to see what kind of freebies they'd send out.
Here are scans of what you'd get...
Club Homage Newsletter Vol. 1 #1
Two buttons...
3 postcards, well the StrykeForce is a postcard and the other two are odd shaped images on card stock...
One introductory letter..
One trivia flyer..
Two poor quality flyers trying to sell limited ashcan comics..

Randy Queen was a local artist. Darkchylde looks VERY much like Jennifer the girl who sold him comics at a local comic shop.
I would mess with her and say things like "Wow, he sure imagined you with barely any clothes on at all!" She'd give me a look like she wanted to strangle me. It was priceless. She told me once that I was one of her favorite people because when the really annoying customers would come in and want to carry on really geeky conversations with her, I'd just say one or two sarcastic sentences and they'd shut up. She'd say "I don't even know if you know you are doing it." I'd say "I knew. I wanted them to shut up too." She'd smile.
Darkchylde #½ with certificate
