While I am very early into the series, Lucifer is quite good.

Vertigo has done so many good books, I am going to make more of an effort to pick-up back issues.

I picked up a full run of Fables on a whim, not having heard much about the series at all, just hoping to get a good read. Wow, like finding a hidden treasure. I read the first 20 or so issues and put it away for a bit. I just don't want to run out of books too quick. Top 5 series reads, ever. So ...

Well I got outbid. My max bid was $330.00, which was just about as high as I would go. I thought I would win at that price. I hope someone here won it. It is a really cool item IMO.

RAI is my favoriate. It was the character that got me interested in Valiant and was tops even when I discovered Solar and the others.

The writing was just so cool....

Yup.

I snatched it up as soon as I saw the listing. Really hard to tell if the price was "too high" as there have been so few listings on the book. Of course, it was worth at least that amount to me.

Thanks to a swift buy of the RAI #4 :D , I have completed my Pre-unity RAI collection.

I grabbed one off e-bay about a week ago. Did the BIN and was happy to just find one.

Good the hear you also got a copy. There is a price for everything, but I would not part with my copy for 2x what I paid for it. Just too difficult to find a copy in 9.8.

Any Hulk recommendations?

Back in the day I enjoyed Hulk comics, but seem to recall some dark issues that were not very good.

Anyway, I see that there is some World War Hulk, Red Hulk and other stuff I did not follow (full time job cuts into that time) but I am wondering if anyone here could recommend.

I would like to find ...

I recently won an e-bay auction for some Mystique solo issues and thought it was pretty good, certainly worth the time to read. Also included was "Ultimate Power" --- lame writing!

Good question.

Maybe a RAI 3 in 10.0. I always thought that was a fantastic cover, and it is a favoriate character of mine.

But I really gotta go with the poster who said new comics with writing as good as pre-unity and other early Valiant stuff.

Paypal much perfered.

And a good looking case also, as this book will be framed and put up in the house. Price includes excellent packing for no damage, shipping priority, tracking and insured. I am in Houston -- 2 or 3 days to get here is fine.

The paying price is well above guide and the last ...

Never bought any Harbringer books. I guess at the time I was not into "team" books. And Shadowman did not really connect with me, although I bought up until issue 25 or so.

Welcome Big Pun.

Unity was a great place to jump in.

Make sure you read the pre-uni stuff, if you have not. It is great.

I remember starting to collect the pre-unity stuff after reading the unity story line. Those issues were expensive (relative to my income at the time) and also hard to find ...
