Mail Call For 9.1.23

Some “Comic Book Alphabet” posts on Bluesky reminded me of some gaps I needed to fill, and the gap-fillers I ordered arrived today.

Also, while I was at it, I ordered some other things.

Because it relates to the alphabet, let’s do alphabetical order.

Up first are the “While I’m here…” items.

The Warlord vol. 1 #85-87
The Warlord vol. 1 #88-90

I don’t know how, when, or why this gap happened, as I used to have the complete mini-series, but one day I noticed that I no longer did, and so I rectified that problem.

The X-Men vs. The Avengers #3 and #4

And here’s the comic that inspired the online shopping after I saw it in someone else’s “Comic Book Alphabet” post and decided I should have it.

Zatanna Special #1

This one was also technically a “While I’m here…” item.

Zatanna: Everyday Magic

I swear that I really am working on a proper Unbagging post – I need to finish rereading the comic in question – and I really need to stop buying things online someday. But someday has not yet arrived, so you’ll be seeing another Mail Call post soon.

And just a reminder that if you want to help me keep paying for these Mail Call posts – and the server space and domain on which they’re posted – you can toss a little money my way if you’re so inclined via PayPal or by becoming a patron on Patreon.

Or you can just click around and look at other stuff with your ad-blocker disabled, and encourage other people you know to do the same.
