Thrift Score 1984

Scored some comics at the St. Vincent De Paul Thrift Store near my house a couple of days ago.

Here are a few of the more interesting ones:

-You gotta love the robotic/dwarf sidekick so prevalent in comics post-Star Wars. It was probably around before that though..

Star Slayer back up: The Black Flame. Eventually graduated to its own title.Got one of those too at St. Vinnies. Drawn by Tom Sutton to boot ( not pictured).

that is cool. I just got some flaming carrot, and megaton man comics as well as some issues of BONE on Cartoon Press comics co.

Flaming Carrot is always great. I'm interested to check out the GUMBY comic that Burden is doing with Rick Geary.

Next time you're in a comic shop, head for the long boxes and look up the Swamp Thing, not sure which volume, 80's - 90's? Just about every cover fucking rules.

Luke, have you seen the Gumby comic Burden did with Arthur Adams?
