Th𒁃e desk will wind up in an interesting place—the Borderlands Comics and Games store in Greenville, SC.

"We're talking about having it on display in the store, and we've talked about having it in my office on the store as a grading desk, where the only thing that would go on it is comics," says Borderlands owner Rob 🐻Young. "Having just won it, we're still trying to figure it out."

Young is a longtime comic book fan who also operates the SC Comicon in Greenville. He was origina♊lly drawn into comics by O'Neil's wo🐠rk and later had him as a guest at the con. Young was emotional about the auction win.

"Once we had him here at the con and he was so s🌠weet and so kind…to have the desk where he worked on those things that influenced me as a kid…just mmmm. It's surreal."

Young was also a bidder on the Question bound volumes. But when both lots ⛄reached high prices, Young had to make a choice.

"When it got up to five grand, I decided…I'd rather have the desk," he says. "I was white-knuckling. The idea I fell in love with was 'I want Denny O'Neil's desk in a comic shop.' If there's anything I felt like he would have liked, it's that. I don't want it in my house, I don't want it buried in a basement🍸, I want it here at the store. 

"This means the world to me. Because witho🗹ut that guy, I don't know that I ever would have got into comics and now do what I do. I thought it was surreal enough to have him here for a weekend at our show. Now we'll have something that we can remember him by every sing🎃le day."

No look at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:comic book creators that defined Batman would be complete without Denny O'Neil ranked high on the list.
