Early Spider-Man Issues Plus A Large Array Of Modern Variants

Howdy!

I am hustling this week to get my late summer cleanup work done at my farm in Boulder, as it now looks like I will be taking off on my first (of two) major road trips on this upcoming Friday morning. This first journey will initially take me to Santa Fe, where I have a much-anticipated Pueblo pottery estate sale that will begin at the crack-of-dawn on Saturday morning. Once that event is over, I will be heading for the Phoenix area, where I have a very large 800 year-old Proto-Puebloan water jar to pick up first thing on Monday morning. I purchased that jar back in May, and the auction house has been kind enough to store it for me, ever since.

Once I leave Phoenix, I have yet another large 800 year-old jar to pick up near Palm Springs, and a small 10-box comics collection to pick up near Riverside, on Tuesday morning. I will then brave the gawdawful mid-morning traffic on the I-10 heading in to downtown LA, in order to make it to the Toy District. Pam has several very large orders of Manga and Anime related merchandise waiting for me to load into my huge cargo van, and I will then try to fill my van to the ceiling (as I always do...) with plush toys and other Manga and Anime bric-a-brac from the innumerable Toy District street vendors.

My biggest unanswered question on this trip will be whether (given the constant peril of ICE raids) my street vendors with whom I have developed such close relationships will still be there with their vast array of imported merchandise. Truthfully, I have no idea as to their immigration status, but I strongly suspect that many are working stalls in that sprawling urban market because they cannot get other work. Whatever the case may be, I have nothing but the utmost respect for this vibrant community of hardworking immigrants (originating from all across Mexico, Latin America, and Asia) , and I very much want to continue to support their avid pursuit of our American Dream, in any way possible. That having been said, I will guarantee you that during times like those that exist today, my purchases of next week will be especially welcomed.

KPop Demon Hunters 3 new posters

On a related note, KPop Demon Hunters has been a major hit on Netflix and had a huge weekend box office ($18 million) the only weekend it was in theatres. That is pertinent to today's discussion because our Mile High Comics General Manager, Will Moulton, was able to obtain for us 40 copies each of three brand new KPop Demon Hunters posters. If shipping is not delayed, those cool new posters (shrink-wrapped onto cardboard) will be on sale in our Jason St. Mega-Store for $14.95 each beginning on Friday. We can also ship in the USA (rolled in a tube) for $25 each. Supplies are quite limited, however, so it is possible that we may be sold out of all three posters after the first day.

Returning to the topic of my upcoming trip, after I load up my huge cargo van with toys on Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning, I will then be heading over to the nearby Garment District to pick up a new gown for the upcoming 60th anniversary of the International Court System. That gala event will be held over Halloween weekend, in Palm Springs. As a reigning International Court System Czarina of the Americas, I have an obligation to look my best, so a new gown is a must-have purchase on this trip.

I am again worried, however, about both availability, and prices, for the sparkly gowns that I typically buy, all of which come from China. Simply put, the ICE raids on the Garment District are what sparked the initial LA street protests several months ago, and were the pretext that was used to justify sending in the National Guard. Have things calmed down? Are the shops open? Have the new tariffs made my preferred gowns unaffordable? These are all questions that I will only be able to answer by showing up in person. Suffice it to say, this particular trip is going to be quite "interesting."

While I am off on my epic 3,000-mile journey, Will and Pam are going to be (slowly) working through that excellent 10,000 issues collection that I picked up last Friday afternoon. Will is able to work on that new project because he already finished grading his awesome Amazing Spider-Man #17-#260 collection that he purchased on Friday morning. Several of the key SPM issues from that collection have already sold, but a great many excellent issues remain available.

Spider-Man #17-54

As regards my collection pick-up from Friday, it is proving to be exceptionally labor-intensive to process, as the issues are all in scrambled order, and then were filed facing forward, and back. Aargh! Our sorting efforts are still totally worth it, however, as the number of rare variants contained in that one collection is truly exceptional. Some are listed for you at the end of today's newsletter, and even more will be posted in Thursday's edition. About 80% of those newly-acquired variants still need to be scanned for the website, so working through this collection is going to be a long, slooow, process...

My only other news for today is a quick reminder that our 60% off FALL! codeword remains in effect for you on almost all of our back issue comics and magazines. Only new issues, a few variants and restored comics, and our professionally-graded items are exempt.

Happy collecting!
