New MILEHIGH2 Codeword - Thousands of Silver Age and Bronze Age Comics Rediscovered

Howdy!

I spent this entire past weekend working, first on our benefit Star Wars auction for the homeless served by the Denver Rescue Mission, and then sorting our extra back issues while looking for 40,000 unneeded comics to complete a bulk deal. Our auction on Saturday was a very pleasant success, with STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS actors J. Trent Adams and DC Barnes enchanting our crowd with their stories of filming at London's Pinewood Studios. After they finished speaking, our sale of the Star Wars toys and collectibles raised $1,072.00 in donations for the homeless, which I think is a very reasonable outcome for an event that we only conceptualized last Tuesday.

My search for bulk overstock comics yesterday (Sunday) was not nearly as successful. For starters, the huge pallet that I perused in our main warehouse that was labeled "unsorted Independents" (which I thought contained only unwanted B&W titles) was actually comprised almost entirely of many thousands of pre-1982 Archie, Harvey, Charlton, Whitman, and Atlas/Seaboard comics. These wonderful Silver Age and Bronze Age comics came to us as a part of the legendary "Mile High II" collection, which I purchased 30 years ago, in 1985. At some unknown point in time, this pallet of treasures was mislabeled, and put into long term storage in the back of our 56th Ave. headquarters, completely at the top of a section of 15' high pallet racking. Suffice it to say, relocating an entire pallet of "lost" Silver Age and Bronze Age comics yesterday made for a great day!

Now that I have rediscovered these thousands of lost Silver Age and Bronze Age treasures, those of you who collect older Archie, Harvey, Charlton, Whitman, and Atlas/Seaboard comics are in for a treat. Starting later this week, we will be offering you the opportunity to purchase a small selection these very scarce back issues, many of which are in very high grades. Our progress in making these wonderful Mile High II comics available to you is going to need to move slowly, however, as we have most of the members of our inventory team temporarily reassigned to helping work down our huge backlog orders of Christmas orders. Until we have the Christmas order backlog completely eliminated, we will only be able to offer you small increments of those Mile High II titles in any given newsletter. Your wait will be amply rewarded, however, as this is the last remaining supply of most of these awesome older comics!

All of the above having been said, I am initiating a new 40% off MILEHIGH2 Codeword today on all of our back issue comics and magazines. This new codeword will apply to all of yesterday's rediscovered Archie, Harvey, Charlton, Whitman, and Atlas/Seaboard comics, as only new issues, a few variants, and our CGC-graded titles are excluded from my new 40% MILEHIGH2 codeword sale. Please do be aware, however, that any orders we receive this week cannot be shipped for about two weeks, as we first have to work down our existing backlog. Your patience and understanding is very much appreciated!

In other news, I did want to quickly mention that this is the last week for you to be able to purchase our Mile High Comics STAR WARS and DEADPOOL variants at their current prices. As I first stated on Friday, we are about to go back to press on our Mega-Store poster insert, which means that we have to lock in most of our Mile High Comics exclusive variants prices for the next six months. With ALL the Marvel STAR WARS titles selling like crazy at the moment, and the DEADPOOL movie less than seven weeks away, we expect our remaining supplies of many of those highly popular issues to diminish rapidly.

DARTH VADER (2015) #15 MILE HIGH COVER

My final item for today is reminder that the last two installments of the VADER DOWN crossover series, STAR WARS (2015) #14 and DARTH VADER (2015) #15 are both scheduled to arrive on Wednesday. As with our first four exclusive Mile High Comics variants of this excellent STAR WARS crossover series, both have charming covers by fan-favorite artist, Katie Cook. If you would like to own a complete set of all six of our Katie Cook VADER DOWN variants, it can still be yours this week for only $139.70. Purchase a complete set by Friday's deadline, and we will include a free copy of STAR WARS (2015) #1 QUESADA with your order.
