  3. Thread update: I am coming to the end of the last batch of scans I did, which means I did a bunch more. The last of bunch will go out over the next three days or so, including two rescans of TuboForce (Issue 1 is already up). After that the next things going up will be donations from MysticNebula and a member local to me, DCinthe80s. There are also two issues of VG&CE donated by Joseph4587 that will go up in this batch; Issue 1 and issue 24. After that will me more of CIVICMINDED's massive donation.
