ME's A-1 Comics
« on: June 09, 2016, 07:33:26 AM »

Thanks Soothsayr, to bad I'm on the other side of the country or I'd give it a try on getting them. We here will be on the lookout for them then.

]Great news for me!  I've been looking for that one for years.  Then, we'll only be missing #2.  Thanks for obtaining it, and offering to scan it for us. Don't we have a "thumbs up" emoji?
