| Thanks so very much, Conan, for giving us Funny Animal comics fans this great early Christmas present, of 13 of the remaining mint "Ha Ha Comics"!!! The artwork in this series is fabulous! Personally, I am now missing just 12 and a half of the remaining issues. And after I get those, I am missing no more than 4 issues of US Funny Animal comic book PD series from the 1940s and 1950s, and in the non-PD Area, missing no more than 3 of any of the series I want, other than many of Timely's rare titles. So, I wish you the best of holidays possible, and to stay safe and well.
Happy Holidays! |
