I know as comic fans we are always looking out for good deals. Well I got one yesterday. There is a local indoor flea market I hit up every other month. One booth usually has comics. But mostly it is 90s era stuff. Well I noticed a magazine box. I start digging thru it and found a copy of Marvel Treasury Edition 19 starring a Conan. It is in a little under Near Mint condition. Best thing it was priced at 3 bucks. So I had to grab it. I dug further into the box and found a bunch more of the Treasury edition comics. Might have to go back soon and get more. So I ask what was your comic find of the week.

Newave!: The Underground Mini Comix of the 1980s
The 892 pages HC is in mint condition and was priced a mere CHF 4.--
That's less than $5.00!!! (on Amazon $18.99)
Guess the dealer didn't know what he had :D
Welcome back Kotter-this is the DC comic that is the same size as the Treasury comics from Marvel.
Superman and Flash-I want to say this reprints 2 or 3 of the Flash/Superman races.
Secret Origins of Super villians-Remember seeing this one as a kid and wanting it.
Superman and Shazam-Another I saw as a kid and have wanted for years.
Now all of these are in Fine shape,but since I was buying so many the owner of the booth cut me a deal. Instead of the normal 3 bucks,and she wanted $5 for the Superman/Flash one cause it is in better shape than the rest, I got all 4 for 8 bucks. The owner said that they have more of these ,plus a huge box of various b/w magazine sized comics. So I exchanged phone numbers with them. I am hoping in that box of magazine sized comics there is plenty of Savage Sword of Conan,the various 70s Marvel Monster mags,and maybe even some stuff from Skywald or Warren.
I love the Busiek Astro City books and I keep an eye out for the HCs. Have all but Volume 2 now (which goes for crazy money on the secondary market).
Got this one for 1/2 of retail. And it has a book mark ribbon!
