For me it has to be, Something Is Killing The Children, I totally slept on this title and boy what a noob move.
there’s plenty of others to!
what’s some of yours?

I was lucky on SiKtC as I read review couple months before it came out so pre ordered no1 and ratio variant for it

But more recently I say ultimate spiderman 1 1st print and mark spears monsters 1 various covers, more annoyed at the spears no 1 as seen all the covers in my LCBS and humed and haed and didn't pull the trigger In the end

I’ve been trying to pick up some Mark Spears covers as of  late, very cool art work I just hope they don’t oversaturate the market with his covers, which already looks to be happening.
He does keep his print runs down so that’s a positive.
His homage covers are some of the best I’ve seen especially if you are a horror fan.

That is some very nice comics, I don’t think I could get over it, if I could afford those items, and missed them.

We can always keep looking for the diamonds in the rough, I know my copy of AF15 is sat in a loft just waiting for me to find it. 😜

For me it was a Flash Comics 92 (in decent grade) 1948 1st Black Canary Cover and solo story. Flash Comics 86 was always the bigger grail but I loved the cover and for whatever reason it always evaded me. I had a low grade many years ago but always wanted a nice presenting copy.
