Special Deals on GI JOE, SECRET WARS, INFINITY GAUNTLET
Howdy!
I spent this weekend continuing to sort and clean odd corners in our 56th Ave.
headquarters building in anticipation of our April 4th deadline for the contents
of that huge facility to be merged into our
Jason St. Mega-Store.
During the
course of my efforts I discovered even more "lost" treasures, several of which
I am going to offer to you today.
GI JOE HASBRO CATALOG
I will begin today's offerings with a special item for collectors of GI JOE
memorabilia. Way back in 1968, Hasbro created a beautiful full color salesman's
catalog of all the GI JOE figures, vehicles, and equipment. These remarkably
complete toy catalogs were never offered to the public, and only became available
to us because an enterprising GI JOE fan created a very limited edition of full
color second printings sometime around 1989. We had thought that we had sold our
entire stock of these beautiful
catalogs
25 years ago, so imagine my delight
when found a tiny stack of VF/NM copies in a secret spot on a back shelf at 56th!
If you would like to own a copy of this
ultra rare GI JOE catalog,
I am letting
them go for only $49.95 each, with a limit of one per client, please.
INFINITY GAUNTLET PIN
Another hidden stash I located on Saturday was an unopened packet of
INFINITY GAUNTLET promotional pins,
featuring THANOS. These beautiful full color pins are now highly collectible,
especially considering their direct tie-in to the next AVENGERS movie. Need I
say more? Only $9.95 each.
SECRET WARS SPECIAL
The rarest items that I located on Saturday were three F/VF copies of the
Marvel UK 1986 SECRET WARS SPECIAL,
which features issues #1-#3. I actually have
no idea of what these are going for in the UK right now, as I have not seen a
copy offered for sale in a very long time. Given that Marvel UK typically only
printed 5,000-10,000 copies each of their specials, however, I am presuming that
these
SECRET WARS editions
are particularly rare, which is precisely why we're
asking $199.95 each. Limit one per client, please.
My last four specials for today are another small grouping of 1980's Marvel
Graphic Novels. We only have about 20 copies of each of these available at $9.95 each,
so do not be surprised if all of our allocation of discounted copies sell out in just
a few hours. Not surprisingly, the first four Marvel Graphic Novels that we offered
on Friday sold extremely well!

HEARTBURST GN 2nd Print
STAR SLAMMERS GN 2nd Print
SUPER BOXERS GN
Before I leave the topic of specials, I will once again mention that all of the
revenues derived from my newsletter specials are being utilized to help cover the
cost of moving our 56th Ave. inventory of
six million comics and magazines
over to our
Jason St. Mega-Store.
I am sincerely grateful to everyone who has ordered
from us recently, as your contributions are helping us very much.
STAR WARS #16 MILE HIGH VARIANT
In other news, we just received the artwork for our exclusive Mile High Comics
variant cover to
STAR WARS (2015) #16.
If you are not yet signed up to receive
your copy of each of
our variants
as they are released, I urge you to contact Greg,
or Mario, in our
new comics subscription department.
They can be reached by phone
at 303-455-2659, or by e-mail at nice@milehighcomics.com. Advance ordered copies
of our variants are only $19.95, and you are only billed as they are released.
We are planning to keep issuing Mile High Comics exclusive STAR WARS editions
pretty much indefinitely, as they have proven to be extremely popular.
I will close today's newsletter with a couple of quick announcements. First,
we are going to be hosting another of our bi-monthly Texas Hold'em Poker Tournaments
at our
Jason St. Mega-Store
on Saturday morning, February 6th, starting at 11 AM.
The buy-in is $25, which will be utilized this time to help us to purchase a set
of five regulation poker tables for all of our future tournaments. If you register
and pay in advance at any one of our stores, you will immediately receive a
$25 gift certificate valid for anything in our stores. I'll also be chipping in
$500 in gift certificates as prizes. Sign up today, and begin your Super Bowl
weekend with a fun game of poker!
My only other announcement for today is to let you know that our 40% off MILEHIGH2
codeword discount is still in effect for you on all ten million of our
back issue comics and magazines,
excepting only new issues, a few variants, and
our CGC's. We are still somewhat behind in our shipping of orders already received,
but I was delighted to see a full crew at work this morning. The dreadful cold that
has been making the rounds of Denver had half of our staff gone at times last week...
Happy collecting!

President - Mile High Comics, Inc.
