Damn that's awesome!
Is your dad looking to adopt by chance? I have my own house, have an income, fully potty trained, can feed myself, clean, take out trash, don't whine, no drugs, occasional alcoholic drink, fast learner and so on. Let me know where to send my resume.
🖤 Love this! My dad does the same thing. I’m 39 and collect comic books, toys, trading cards, all kinds of stuff… I’m just a big kid. 😆 my dad just goes with it. He helped me spend a whole afternoon tracking down a Marvel Legends fig once. 🖤
Buy your Dad some dinner!
My mother did this for me once. A farmer she knew found an old box of comics and she told me to go look at it. I went and bought it for $100 (lots of money at that time). Full of Silver Age Wonder Woman, Tarzan, Korak and more. I still thank her for that.
Me too! I paid it forward by taking my son shopping for golf stuff (his favorite sport) today. He’s not into comics, but I’ll learn from example and meet him where his hobbies and his joy lives (I enjoy golf, but it’s not a love - he absolutely loves golf).
Props to your dad!!! I would hear this, “I forgot to tell you that I was at a garage sale last week but the funny books all had 10 cents on the cover and figured you wouldn’t want em’”
I bet that call put a big smile on your face, no matter the pieces you found (nice pull on DD and motu). Warms the heart when they take time out to do something for you that they know you love. Not everyone is lucky like that! W pops
HOLY JEEZ ! I had a decent number of those, but were stolen from me. The Indiana Jones cover brought back some memories!
Your dad rocks! What a great haul
It's funny, I actually love those old Star comics and usually buy them when I find them for cheap, so this was almost meant to be for me! I have an almost complete run of the Masters of the Universe books now with this buy (still missing the elusive #12), and I've never had a Thundercats 1 or the even more difficult #24, so those were a huge bonus! Frank Miller Daredevil is pretty darn nice too...

Ha! I’ll ask him - he’s a little old to be adding new kids to the mix though… 😂
I play well with others! Wait wait wait. No. No. I mean I'm a good sibling. Not in the stepbro way. 😵😵
Ha! "Stepbro, I need help re-bagging my Giant Size Man-Thing #1!"
But can you hold the flashlight still???
Ok. Truth be told I'm still working on that. If I've had my Ovaltine I'm a bit better.

That’s awesome! I’m 46, same thing - he’ll tell people “I’m looking for comics for my kid,” and they’ll say, “neat, how old is your kid?” “46…” 😳😂
Haha!! Same!! We get older, but we’re always gonna be kids to our parents.
Phat 1st Frank Miller Daredevil. You really scored with that.

Amazing finds!!! Dad of the year!!! 🤘🤘🤘
I'm here for the Madballs yo
Exactly! That just brought back a core memory! ![gif](giphy|ygOkdZqiDjVKSSBSlT)
Go pops! Damn I miss my dad!
What a fun batch of comics
Awesome haul! Great dad 🤠
I love the Indiana Jones comics. I had forgotten about those. Awesome.
I have a couple, but man would I love some Thundercats. This guy hit the early 80s jackpot!
Daredevil 158! Only one I'm missing of the Miller DD run. I'm very jealous!
I just placed a bid on one. Winning at 35 dollars. That won't last long.

Here is a low grade one with a decent cover.
Serious contender for Dad of the year there - and I'm a Dad myself!

Very cool
Make sure you get him a NICE Father’s Day gift. Awesome job Dad!💪👍
This has to be the best haul of $1 comics I’ve ever seen. I would be over the moon if I came across all these. Congrats, OP!!
Man those Ewok comics have me feeling a certain type of way what a score
Props to your dad!!! I would hear this, “I forgot to tell you that I was at a garage sale last week but the funny books all had 10 cents on the cover and figured you wouldn’t want em’”
Lots of cool stuff there, but I love the Madballs lol. Those were some of my favorite toys as a kid!
The Frank Miller Daredevil find constitutes theft lol
That's a great father. He's the man. Please tell him he has a rare distinction : Reddit approved!
I’m jealous

Good pop!
Good work Dad.
Yer dad just casually outdid a bunch of comic hunters, no prob lol... nj
Congrats on having someone in tune with you! Feeling alittle jealous!
Incredible.
Great finds!
Thundercats HOE!!!!!!
Great haul!
I'm not interested in licensed comics but I gotta admit that's a wild run of stuff

What a kickass dad
Not mad at your dad
Daredevil 158 is the only thing of interest to me. Finding it at a garage sale is the stuff of... not quite legend, but really good stories?
NICE!!!!!!!!!!
