Greetings!
It's been many months since I've posted an update, and several of you have asked what's going on. The short answer is that I just dropped the ball.
I've still been buying, scanning and selling books, but because I wasn't keeping track of anything, I haven't updated anything. There have been books that were purchased, in my mind, as part of this project*. Those scans were released but not attributed to the group out of sheer laziness on my part. (If I didn't release them as ASP books, I didn't have to reconcile the spreadsheet. Or so the thinking went.)
What I've done is reconciled the spreadsheet from October, and just disregarded most of the activity for the last 8 months or so. This will work in ASP's favor, as all ebay sales I've made in the last year just served to whittle down the finances. (Seriously. When you buy a book for $200 and sell it for $125 (Cap America 73), or buy for $135 and sell for $75 (Whip Wilson 9), you start to feel like a chump.) The only books I added to the spreadsheet were the two uploaded to the ASP 4shared site.
I'm not asking for, nor will I accept any further donations, but I'd like to put the remainder of our money to a better and more transparent use.
I'd also like to get some feedback on what to buy, so if you've got some suggestions or a wantlist, post it!

* some examples of should-have-been ASP scans that weren't: Menace 1 & 6, Crime Must Lose 5, 6, 8, 12, Men's Adventures 24-26.

I'm OK with whatever everyone else wants, as long as you continue to reduce the number of unscanned books!
And if you change your mind about accepting additional contributions, I would consider it my priviledge to do so...=^ D(nA)
