THANK YOU for the two later CA scans! I know what you mean about the
mysterious lists from 2011. I just found it when googling one of the
Steranko issues you shared. Once comicdownload is back online, we can
see if the rest are really there. The newsgroups used to be the place
to find out who scanned what but everyone seems to have gone further
underground or maybe belong to closed groups that don't have us as
members. ;-)
