I might be on the tv show Comic Book Men

On tonight's episode a young guy came in with FM #1 & 108 and Spacemen #1 to sell. When asked where he got them he said his dad worked for Jim Warren back in the day and received them from Warren. They never said who his dad was, which makes me wonder. The guy said he was kind of an idea man. He also resembled Sam Sherman a bit. I wonder if Sam Sherman is his pop, or if not who is?

The books were pretty beat up, especially that Spacemen #1. Of course the only Spacemen #1s I've ever seen were in low grade. My copy's in low grade as well. The spines on those early Warrens were seemingly made to self destruct. The Stash (Walt) gave him $275.00 for the three books, which seemed to be a fair dealer buying price considering condition. The first thing I would have done is go through them with a fine tooth comb to check for clipped photos and coupons, but since most of these so called reality shows are scripted they either did that before it was shot or the whole thing was staged.

I was wondering the same thing. I was like "What's your name, dude!"

Have you fellows not noticed that he made his announcement with respect to a possible appearance more than eighteen months ago?

I was also thinking that.  It seemed odd that his or his dad's name wasn't mentioned.  Those type of shows usually just love to name drop.

Maybe the guy was fine with telling his story, but didn't want his name mentioned.  Or possibly the father put in a complaint about the name being mentioned before the show aired.  Who knows.

So true about reality shows, with that and editing .. there aren't many honest reactions.  It is always all about ratings and entertainment value more that anything else.

Well now I am curious to know if BlackLagoon got on the show. There hasn't been an update. Did you get on the show? Did they find your GI Joe comic?
