So... I notice that with movie buzz comes crazy prices... After my son asked if I had any G.I. Joe comics and Transformers comics I realized I had a few duplicates.... ( why is this run of the mill issue going for so much money. I'm glad I paid $2.25 CDN for these 3 )

er...why did you purchase 3 copies?

Paul Clairmont · **Posted:** Jul 27, 2009 6:37 AM

A habit a inherited from my Dad during his collecting days. Always buying multiples to try and have the best copy released at the time. I have complete duplicate runs of just about every major Marvel run from 1982 to 1989 when I was buying weekly from my subscription at my local LCS. I have issues..

It's not that good...there's no words :silly:

Seriously, I'm just hoarding with no intention of selling.

WAIT A MINUTE...NOW !
...90s stuff first for packaging and recycling
I just can't bring myself to do that to Kirby...
However..I do have plenty of Marvel NEW UNIVERSE that will work
for preventing garage floor oil stains!

Well, it is the 1st appearance of Stormshadow so I don't think it qualifies as "run of the mill". It was also one of the first to use no words in the story (since the focus was on Snake Eyes). Be sure that your copies are first printings though. This issue was reprinted multiple times. I think the ones that were included in the Marvel 3-Packs were all 2nd or later printings.

DP 7 was about the only "good" thing to come from it IMHO.
