I love that Man-Thing cover too. The large right forearm with those curling fingers and the shape of his left knee is awesome.

You seem to have such a great time getting out and enjoying what you love. Such a nice peaceful alone time early morning relaxation. I need to see what is going on here in Maryland on the weekends.

Good stuff. I love your content. Nice to see another raw book guy.

Classic Claremont is always great. Man-Thing is fantastic. In fact, those 70s genre comics are pretty great to go back and read.

Great video, thanks! I'd say you did great on the X-Men 137 and Man Thing 1. Two great books!

[thomashendricks]

Mike as always, you bought a great batch of books. There are so many great venues within a short distance to you. One question, were the white frosted doughnuts Boston crème or cinnamon roll, they looked yummy. 😃👍🐳

Hi Mike, I'm happy with some flea market footage and some in stores (about 2/3 outdoors and markets, about 1/3 in stores). The "walking music" you use as you make your way between the tables is a nice touch too. What makes your videos stand out though is that you don't run through dozens of comics like many other presenters, you focus on just a few and why they're important enough for you to have bought them. Thanks for not going into the whole "Gambit's first appearance" debate which has been done ad nausuem; I don't really care about first appearances of characters unless the issue is part of a run I'm trying to complete. Man-Thing #1 is a hard comic to find here in Australia, it took me 15 years to finally track one down in decent condition. Here we have nowhere near as many flea markets as in the US and yard sales produce a torn or coverless X-title from a decade ago if you're lucky. You definitely live in a happy place for comics fans!

I have always been a fan of Man-Thing. Great series. I go back and forth on who I like more, Man-Thing or Swamp Thing. It is close but I favor DC's Swamp Thing because I like the art more.

[maartenbouw]

I’ve got to get some more Man-Thing comics, and that first issue looks great!

[whiterabbit]

5:12 I highly recommend you go back for that Longshot limited series, if you don't already have it. Super good mini-series by Ann Nocenti and Art Adams.

Great vid. My wife is from Greenfield and never told me that store even existed...probably on advice of my bank account. I forsee more visits to my in-laws....yeah. My in-laws.

That X-Men 137 has been cropped too low at the top. There should be background from the cover image visible above the masthead. I've seen a few like that and they generally sell for a bit less because of it.

Lunch money comics, great books but if you are a big Gambit fan then you might wanna try and get Gambit#1 Gold Foil cause it's the more rare book.

[fossiladventures]

Hi from the UK, totally agree regarding Gambit but its only CGC that counts 😂. Manthing is a great looking book love the art but not so much the story in this run

[talldan]

[RafaustComics]

Nice selection of pickups! Great channel Lunch Money!

[Paul_the_Bruh]

Just want to say I've been watching for a while now and I am loving your channel. It's just so chill and unassuming. Unlike a majority of channels out there, you have no over the top antics, but instead you just hunt and comment. Thanks for being real, man. Keep up the great work!

[Moncomics]

Hey man, love the channel and content. Show us more hunting! I have loved Man Thing for years, and am loving he’s getting the attention he deserves. I whole-heartedly believe he’s the next Groot and they were “testing the waters” with his appearance in WBN. Keep up the great collecting! 🤘🏻
