    I love Death's Head and I liked the story line of Ravage. When I was in high school in the 80's, I would buy a big bag of lollipops on Monday and buy Friday I had about $50 that I spent on comic books. I got into collecting comics because I worked night shift at 7 Eleven and there was nothing else to do but read. By the 90's we had comics book store owners coming in and buying up all the popular comics. I kept a stash in a box behind the counter of the one's I knew they wanted and I would charge them double to pay for my comic book habit.

    Voltron is a tough series to put together in high grade due to the majority being bagged 3-packs. Newstands are near impossible. I bought mine in bagged 3 packs through a surplus dealer, so they were untouched by human hands..lol. Canadian newstand and US direct.

    Where There's Smoke was a great snag. I always grab those oddball promo style comics. Neat seeing what they seemed important enough to put to print .
    Toddfather's Spidey #1 is my baby. I'd have grabbed that one in a heartbeat as well. Funny facts there is 2 different webbing versions of that particular #1. One is regular style grey-ish and the other is more of a purple.

    Especially like this installment as at 1.01 there's the Death's Head/Die Cut mag we worked on back in my Marvel UK days. Written by my pal Glenn Dakin. If you ever get chance check his comics. He did a great book with Pasqual Ferry around then called Plasmer.
