It Came from Ebay (Again)

by Jessica

Here’s another glimpse of the strangeness that can Ebay. Would someone stop the madness, please. Just when I thought the world of collecting would be limited to variant covers, I’ve discovered that someone is actually selling just the advertisements from some mid seventies books. Sure these ads are cool and retro, but come on, who wants a hostess fruit pie ad hanging on the bedroom wall? So what’s next? The letters page from a comic? These ads are going for $7.99 each if you’re interested, personally, I’d rather have the set of Lady Death glasses that’s being sold, at least that way I can use them. That’s all from ebay today, I gotta go and buy some pies.

    “Put a Superfriend on your chest”? I’d like to see someone just wear that on a t-shirt.

About Comic Book Journal

Where do capes and cowls end and horror and noir begin? What's more important: the four-color panels, or the letter balloons within them? Did comics really begin in cave walls, or just in the Sunday morning cartoons? What the heck is a graphic novel? These questions and more are answered in the Comic Book Journal, the place between the page and the panel, the motion line and the sound byte, the superhero and the every(wo)man.
