Oh, hello there, and welcome to the Worst.Cache.Ever. page.  Most people call me the Comic Book Guy.  Please, take a look around, but leave everything in mint condition.  The original contents of the Worst.Cache.Ever. are:
 
• Marvel's Greatest Comics starring the Fantastic Four #85
• Marvel Spotlight on Warriors Three #30
• The New Mutants #37
• Power Man and Iron Fist #86
• Power Man and Iron Fist #89
• Marvel Comics Group: the Mighty Thor #253
• The Thing #33
• Tales to Astonish starring the Sub-Mariner #2
• The Amazing Spider-Man #277
• Web of Spider-Man #12
• Vigilante #12
• Superman starring in Action Comics #538
• ElfQuest #7

I have also generously supplied the cache with some super-hero related swag for those of you who do not wish to part with your valuable comic collection.  Truly, with valuable collectibles such as these, finding this ammo can will be as simple as using Wonder Woman's lasso to get a villain to tell the truth.

But, seeing as we are unfamiliar with sarcasm, I shall close the cache at this point, and state that the contents will not be easily found.  Furthermore, your constant requests for the coordinates  have become more redundant and annoying then the last three "Highlander" movies.  Very well, I shall supply you with the coordinates, but first you must answer me these riddles three.

Riddle the first:  After parking at the co-ordinates above, you may be tempted to read the two signs near the parking lot.  As you do so, think of the answer to this riddle: Read between the signs ... where Ant-man would crawl, think small.

Riddle the second: You'll need to follow the path, and when you walk onto the observation deck, the Wonder Twin powers activate.  Form of a bench!

Riddle the third: Gazebos are structures that have been known to host weddings.  However, Aquaman cannot marry a woman without gills because they're from two different worlds.  Look not in the gazebo, but near Aquaman's world for a snorkel.

If you cannot locate the complete set of co-ordinates, maybe this cache is not for your infantile intellect.  You may also complete this cache by simply swearing like a super-villain to receive the coordinates.  But if you take this short-cut, rest assured, I will be on the Internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world that you are the Worst.Cacher.Ever.

I should also explain the rules that accompany this cache. 

#1 - No, you may not simply take a comic from the cache. Are you the creator of Hi and Lois?  Because you are making me laugh.  You must first place a comic into the cache if you wish to take a comic.  And, if you happen to be interested in a very rare "Mary Worth" in which she advises a friend to commit suicide, you must visit me in person at my store ...Thank you...

#2 - If you did not *gasp* bring a comic book bag for your exchange, I have supplied a few for your use.

#3 - Although this is hardly worth mentioning, you may also exchange other, less valuable swag.

#4 - There is, of course, a suitable first-to-find prize. Yes, it shall be awarded to the first participant to find the cache... your powers of deduction are exceptional. I can't allow you to waste them here when there are so many caches unfound at this very moment. Go, go, for the good of the city.
 
Congratulations to The Mystery Crew on their FTF July 11, 2008!
