Added to my collection: Cheap Team-Ups




These later issues of Marvel Team-Up and Marvel Two-In-One are not high in priority on my wants lists but I'm not going to miss them if they are going cheap. MTU #134 with art by Ron Frenz (who's a fav of mine) was £1.20 but the other two issues were 49p each.

2-in-1 No. 19 is cover dated Sept 1976. Which is the month I bought my first American Marvel. So that's nice as I would like as many issues as possible for that cover date (which were actually on sale in June in the US and then Sept over here in the UK)

Added to my collection - More Bronze Age goodies










Just added via one ebay purchase 2 more comics to my collection and an upgrade of Marvel Team-Up 84. My old copy was water soaked so it was nice to pick up a FN+ copy for 95p together with Defenders 38 and Two-In-One 86.

The Defenders fills a gap so I now have16-39 except for No. 30. That's a priority. At the time of writing I can't decide if to get some Masterwork editions to get the early issues some of which are quite expensive. No. 10 is approx £40. Too steep for me on this title. All the others I've bought have been about £2.

The 2-in-1 Sandman issue is supposed to be notable due to the fact it goes towards redeeming the Sandman. I know that storyline has now been abandoned but at the time it was popular. I couldn't resist adding this so I could read it even though 2-in-1 beyond issue 75 were not really high one my wants list.

Added to My Collection...Team-Up and Dracula!




Three back-issues, great condition and amazingly cheap from Ebay with combined postage all from the same seller. Dracula 99p and the two Team-Ups bought as a lot for £1.50. The Dracula is one from my wants list but I couldn't resist the Team-Ups.

A nice surprise was that No. 140 was a Tom DeFalco/ Ron Frenz collaboration. They are a favourite partnership when it comes to Spidey.
