I'll dig out some stuff of my own this weekend or something, my collection is a horrible mess.
But show me some pics of something rare, something cool, something to make me jealous.

Here's one, the very first Sof Boy comic. Made initially for an art show at a gallery that was all Chicago cartoonists, later the #2 mini came out and got further distribution. Until I bought this comic I had never even seen the cover, I just knew it existed and that it was blue.  |

Here's one of mine - an early artist's book by Charles Burns, from an edition of 100 signed copies. I think the story here is that every copy is cut and collated in a different way, i.e. in the William Burroughs cut-up method that Doug is obsessed with in X'D OUT.    |

I used to have a low-numbered Copra #1 but sold it in a time of need. Now it's probably this Kate Beaton mini I got at CAB a while ago, has a hand-printed cover and doodle on the back.

I have a copy of the original One Hundred and One Views of The Asshole mini from Panter that my dad got from him the 80s, I’d post photos but still can’t figure out how to post photos on mobile browser in here.

 Not that rare i know...but I once found this 88 Jimbo in Paradise in a trash can at a comic book store and easily talked the owner into selling it for 2 bucks. |

I don't think this is that rare, but I have a small floppy from Dash Shaw called 3 Stories That I always loved. I've never seen another copy, so mine feels special to me.   |

Do you have a post anywhere going over your full Sof Boy collection? I'd love to see that.

I've thought about doing it, but I've always been waiting until I had a full run of the calendars... who knows if I ever will. At the MCA show of Chicago Cartoonists, there was a bunch of Sof Boy merch I know I'll never have haha. |

I don't know how rare or valuable any of this stuff really is, but these are the comics I scoured Ebay for when I first started collecting and blogging about Disney: |

I also need to get his recent book too! |
