I’m generally not big into comics these days but while shopping at Dollar Tree (yes..the store were everything’s a dollar-No,not where they sell the exclusive line of G.I. Joe figures,that would be Dollar General)) for my daughters school snacks,i ran across these comic two packs put out by a company called Cards One.Each pack includes two vintage (not reprints) Marvel,DC,Image etc. comic books and this particular two pack caught my eye.What caught my eye right away was the cover of the first pack,which boasted a who’s who of Marvel heroes and immediately reminded me of the Secret Wars series.Upon closer inspection it turned out to be issue number 3 of the Infinity Gauntlet series.I’ve since unwrapped this baby and given it a quick read and absolutely loved it.Now I want the rest of them.I’ll do a quick write up on this awesome issue once I wrap up my ToyBiz figure countdown.
They sell these at Five Below too.
I wonder if they marked them up?They’re a buck a piece at Dollar Tree.
I’ve bought a few of them as well.
There cool to mess around with if your looking for some quick reads and john ephemera.
You have never read the Infinity Gauntlet? Turn in your geek card NOW! I used to be obsessed by it. Since I sold all my comics I am hoping one day to just stumble across the TPB of it.
Unfortunately I was never cool enough to own a geek card to begin with Hobby 😉
Infinity Gauntlet (or Infinity Wars) is my first ever comic book crossover event that I had read many years ago. I still think it has the best story of all crossovers done by Marvel.
I loved it!The short exchange between Wolverine and Hulk on the rooftop was classic.And The Watcher standing over Thanos and Mephisto was a great panel.
