The Conan the Rogue graphic novel by John Buscema is a book I'd like to have.

Less expensive: several foreign editions of Alpha Flight comics. 
Moderate cost: Avengers 57, my favorite cover ever. 
Way Expensive: original Kirby Captain America page; page from X-Men 109 with Guardian’s first full image; the original art for the Bullpen Bulletin of JB surrounded by Marvel heroes.

The only big gap in my JB collection is still Iron Fist 14 (still a bit out my price range). That is my biggest want. 
I have a few collection gaps I'd like to fill, and I'd like to get a hold of some JB original art inked by other inkers to compare/contrast with the pages I already have.

I figured on never getting that Iron Fist #14. I really got lucky on that, a very nice Fine copy too. I never thought I'd pay for Avengers Annual #10 what it gets priced at, a tough pill when you remember buying it at the time for cover... again, a white nice Fine copy (Lonestar's Fine can sometimes be other peoples' VF or even higher).

My top longest DC item must be DC Super Stars #11 (Magic/Zatanna). What is with Zatanna anyway? Is there some cult following to rival Moon Knight's where every appearance is now at least nearing three figures? I did get Giant-Size Creatures #1 with the first Tigra after years hemming and hawwing, and of course just the right priced and condition copy coming along. So maybe someday I'll get that '70s Zatanna biggie. Staple rust seems to be common on these giants, and I really want to avoid that.

The only thing on my comic book-related want list is a Fantastic Four commission by my favorite comic book creator. (By the time I was in a position to purchase one, JB was no longer offering them. Darn my rotten luck!)

Maybe you can still find something already existing that could be available sometime and would appeal?

Well, I went and checked off X-Men #110 finally, saw a very white a sharp copy at an acceptable price... well, so long as it actually arrives. I sort of justify things like that sometimes by how I didn't pay as much as I might've on most of the other issues in the series. Time to cinch the ol' purse strings up now for awhile however.

I don't have the EPIC ILLUSTRATED run of JBs "Last Galactus Story". I  REALLY need to make time to find those.

If JB was still doing commissions, I would rob my 401K for the following:

FF (circa 1982)
FF vs Red Ghost & Super Apes
Re-image of Hulk #316 cover
Re-image of X-Men #141 cover 
Thor vs. Hercules
Green Lantern Corps
Luke Cage

and one commission from out of left field

Hanna-Barbara's THE HERCULOIDS

I loved The Herculoids! There should've been at least as many comics for that as Valley Of The Dinosaurs got! Also Space Ghost, preferably by Alex Toth. I some of the Gold Key comics they were in way before they started getting crazy prices, although generally only VG... would be great if they'd get reprinted/collected.

Someone should collect up The Last Galactus Story too!

I've been collecting JBNM pages for a few years now. Still want a cover and a page from #0.

Oh, and one of them there Elsewhen pages would be real cool. I've seen a bunch of them up close, and man, they are purty...
