Fight Comics have two needed #32 and #35.

Don't see evidence of an Our Flag 6

Mary Marvel 19 will be up soon.

Of course, we still need fills and fiche/GM replacement for many in these series

You're right and I'm modifying it.  Thanks!  Looking forward to Mary Marvel.

The scanners out there have done an amazing job over the years.
It's exciting to see how close we are on so many titles.  Missing pages, fiche and needed upgrades should mean something for scanning will always be needed though.

Thanks for the list DM.

Blazing 6 is just a cover around a variety of reprints so it need not be on the list.

I've got Plastic Man 52 along with 15 or 20 other missing Quality issues.  Only problem is I don't own a scanner.   Any chance I could loan them to someone to scan and then get them back?

Just had an idea I thought I'd float by you guys.  Some of the missing issues are kinda pricey.   Has anyone ever thought of teaming up to buy a missing issue, scanning it and the reselling.  It could be resold for what we paid and then everyone gets their money back after the sale.  Just wondering if anyone had considered this.  I'd be game to help out with the cost.

These things come up from time to time.
They don't last very long for various reasons.
DCM doesn't officially support or discourage such ideas.

Not to veer the thread off into a tangent, but has anyone floated the idea of making it more official than just some individuals teaming up? Such as an official DCM fund for buying and selling that people would give to and not expect money back from. Someone would be a designated buyer, the books would be sent to official scanners, and then sold again? It's just a thought. It would be a lot of work to setup and coordinate, so I could understand it not being something someone (or some people) would want to take on, but as we get down to some of the rarer and pricier books it may be something to consider.
