reading the other thread got me thinking...
what are the least wanted/desired books of the valiant u?

Magnus 25 and Rai and the FF 9.

I made a page once that combined "most printed" and the concept of "least wanted"...

But honestly, if I didn't own a single copy of Turok #1, I'd want one.
It's probably a better list for books that people don't want multiple copies of...

I don't mind multiples of bloodshot 1 and maybe even dr. mirage 1 (think I just have one of this). If they are very cheap, I'll snag them. Probably not the smartest way to use money since they were overprinted like crazy, but they look cool.

I've got 30 copies of Bloodshot 1 I'd let go.

I'm just glad I have ten copies of the valiant vision starter kit WITH the glasses (or however many I have).

I have a crapload of H.A.R.D.Corps #7's that I am working on getting Doc Solar to take off my hands.

Why did you end up with loads of #7?

It isn't a crapload, I bought a H.A.R.D.Corps run and the seller sent me 10 #7's. I have no desire to have them and have been trying to pawn them off on Doc Solar. If I had his addy I would just send the damn things to him and forfeit our contest. That is how much I despise them. Whenever I go through my back issue box to check someones "needs list" I have to thumb past them and they aren't even cool to look at. Ever. I hate them.

Do you want them, leon? They are very pretty.

No thanks, 1 copy is enough (and I mean that as someone who enjoyed reading the series). The other half feels too many comics come into the house as it is...

well for starters I would say a pee-digree book and the rare pube encapsulated book.

Other then that Deathmate which for some reason I keep getting them as "freebies" sent from ebay purchases.

oh and I have finally finished drywalling my basement with Turok #1s so no more please!

You sure? What if you need to reinforce those Turokian-Chrome walls?

10 copies?

You've been bellyaching like that over 10 copies?

The way you were saying it, I was thinking you had something like 30. 10 is nothing.

Just bought a nice lot from KC_Collectibles' store last night. Only about 60 books to go now.

I hope you are working on this. If I get really motivated, I just might finish this up at Super-Con this weekend!

Do you want the 8 copies of Rai 11 or 8 copies of Secret Weapons 1?

Maybe I'll throw in a dozen Turok 1s for good measure.

Hey ThrillKill, I think Chiclo wants those extra copies.

Nah, I am working on getting rid of my doubles. Many of those, I have in quantities over 10 already.

Nice Try.

I don't own ten of anything except socks, and even then they are sold in pairs so indiciduals don't count. I don't know what I would do if I had 30 of 100 of something. It would probably make me crazy enough to plaster my walls like snotdrip did. His own little padded room.

Yeah, but they need friends to keep them company.

Oh, I already know where this is going, but -

Deathmate Yellow and Blue weren't the worst things ever. Deathmate Red and Black should have a special classification all their own, though.
