I once got in a cab at the airport where there was someone who was allegedly there to monitor them. Can driver wanted cash I immediately got out and complained to the rep who said to the cab driver "you know you're not supposed to do that"

I hop in the next cab, pay cash and 25% tip. Asked the cab driver to tell the first driver when he gets back.

TL;DR - Nobody monitors them

Most of them probably aren't valuable unless they are particularly old or are the the first appearances of specific characters. You'd have better luck just writing up a list and hitting the back issue sites/ebay

One evening about ~10 years ago, I met a girl in University City, and we were going back to my place in Fairmount. I was biking at the time, so I got her a cab to my place. The cab driver took her on a long, unknown route. I got to my house first on my bike and waited 20 mins for her to arrive. She called me crying, and I yelled at the driver why it's taking so long and gave him my address again. When she arrived, I berated the driver and then refused payment that was over $60.

That was some sketchy shit.

They are probably too far from you, but there are two in Delaware that have been around forever. Comicmania in Wilmington and Captain Blue Hen in Newark.
