Avengers Infinity War


So Part 1 of the Infinity Saga film has landed and it's great. I've seen it twice and although, of course, it's not perfect it is still an awesome achievement to include so many heroes and Thanos in just one film.

It's certainly meant the value of my Iron Man #55 which is the first appearance of Thanos has increased.

New Trades from the Bargain Shelf at Forbidden Planet


I like visiting Forbidden Planet in Birmingham as at least that store has items on sale unlike Forbidden Planet Coventry or Nostalgia and Comics in Birmingham.

This time I picked Vols 6,7 & 8 of Superman Chronicles for £2.99 each (but with a buy 2 get 3rd free) and a nice Darwyn Cooke Spirit trade.

I wouldn't have normally gone for Golden Age Superman but this was an exceptional offer because for £6 I got reprints of Action 37 - 47, Superman 10 - 15 and World's Finest 2 - 4. Interesting from a comics history point of view and I'm really happy with them. I think these were on sale because DC are now releasing Golden Age Superman with a new trade dress.
