Wherein my aunt brought two bagfuls of old comics that my uncle owned, including dictionary-thick paperback DC showcases of black and white comics that I suspect are from even before World War 2. In excellent condition, too.
My aunt is telling me to sell them on ebay. They'd go for a few million dollars, she says.
Maybe I will. Decades from now. After I make my nieces and nephews and possible children grow up with them.

Just felt like I should share.
For legality, one of the showcases that I have yet to know of:
Warlord.

They are, I realize now, collected editions (I have another bagful of single issues and I don't know what they are yet since I haven't looked, I just know they're really old). Damn awesome, though, that's gonna keep me busy for quite a bit. Happily.
