That last page of other books in the series made me laugh.
That's a Mr. Men book. There were tons of those.

I just found three of them and some old Ghost Rider comics.



Anybody know this one?




Or this one?

Says first issue. Is that good?


I have the Rise of the Midnight Suns issue of Ghost Rider (it was a crossover with Doctor Strange, Darkhold, Nightstalkers, and Morbius). It was from the early 90s, right around the time I sort of drifted away from Marvel because all their books were becoming kind of terrible.

I also had a Kool-Aid Man comic. Don't think it was that one specifically, but I'm sure they were pretty much all the same anyway.

In terms of value? Probably not. The bottom dropped out of the collector market years ago, so unless you're talking about books from 1965 or earlier you're never really going to get much value out of them.

Oh yeah. eBay says ten dollars or so. Well Ill keep them. Maybe one day 1995 will be the new 1965.
I think that was from the super cheesy, over-the-top Punisher run. It's fun but not "good"

I had those Mr. Men books as a child. Other childhood books included Enid Blyton series and classics like Sherlock Holmes and Count of Monte Cristo. For comics those were expensive so I used to pretend to be shopping with my mother in the supermarket and read them right off the shelves. Mostly Spider-Man or X-Men. There were some boys at school that actually collected them though. And Firestorm there was my fav DC character besides Superman. I always wanted his powers.

Same author and style, but Roundy and Squary is technically a separate series from Mr. Men. I mean, just look at the link you posted. Not a Roundy or Squary in sight! But if you go to the author's page, it shows them as separate series.

I was not allowed to take this comic from this estate move unfortunately. The family specifically requested these to be returned, so they obviously knew what she was sitting on. There were all kinds here, too. An I Love Lucy comic from the 1950s, immaculate/like new condition.
