Man, that was great to see! I miss the sub and sorting through the boxes. Hopefully Vinny will get back in the swing soon.

Thank you again for helping me out in the making of this!

[@collectingcasually]

That is a pretty awesome story! I'm going to have to check out that subreddit now!

[@UncannyDerekComics]

Thank you for the support! I thought the story was pretty neat, too! 😉

The covers of vol 1 and 2 of Red Sonja are excellent. Hell even nowadays Red Sonja books are usually great. I just missed out on a 9.8 signed jenny frison one last night in an auction. It sold for 50 cents more than my bid. I was trying to get it for a steal but shouldve went a few dollars more to be sure. Damn.

[@UncannyDerekComics]

I agree about the Red Sonja books! Always great artwork! Sorry about missing out on the auction. Fifty cents. Yeesh!

[@Robert-00768]

Yeah definitely envious of the Toxie issue. Funny enough I did get one of the certified one and yet some of the "lower" comics actually interested me more lmao

[@UncannyDerekComics]

That was definitely one of the most exciting things about the Mystery Boxes! Some of those "lower" books were just too darn cool!

[@Robert-00768]

@UncannyDerekComics yeah I hope they do another sale. Lol It really was great seeing all the posts and happy comments from everyone. Though I am sort of shocked they did not do a MASSIVE turn in and CGC make it another pedigree label as they following is already a good size and would have just gotten bigger lol

[@UncannyDerekComics]

@@Robert-00768 No foolin'. I would love a follow up for all of the grading - but that's still a major undertaking for Nat and Vinny to take on!

[@HaulYeahComics]

This was an awesome story, Derek! I didn't know anything about this. Super cool! Loved the books you got in the Mystery Boxes. If it started back up, I would definitely grab one if available.

[@UncannyDerekComics]

Thank you kindly! If anything ever comes of it, I'll be sure to let you know!

[@Gnatman78]

I hope Vinny lets me so it more. Tons and tons of work but also very fun!

[@djmoonchild01]

Wish I knew about this! Great books!

[@UncannyDerekComics]

Thanks for watching! Here's hoping the Garage re-opens one day and you can partake!

[@dwaynesmith9482]

I had those metal shelves he has in his garage and those shelves suck. They do not hold much weight and won’t hold for long

[@UncannyDerekComics]

Fortunately Vinny had the shelves supported with other boxes of comic books! ;-)

[@Gnatman78]

That is sadly true
