To repost the question:
Recently, I returned from my parent's home in NY, where most of my comic collection sits, to Australia, where I live now. When I go to NY, I often pull out a couple of items from my collection, and bring them back to Australia with me.
Which of the following two items did I NOT bring back this time?
a. LSH v. 3 (Baxter series) #'s 6-12 (as I'd brought back the LSV arc on a previous trip)
b. Thriller #'s 1-6 (all that I own)
c. The first Ambush Bug miniseries, #'s 1-4
d. The "Golden Age" trade paperback
e. Three parts of the first Mark Waid arc of Flash ("Born to Run"), for the first time bringing all of my issues of this story onto the same continent
f. The Ambush Bug Stocking Stuffer special
g. The Secret Origins issue featuring Ambush Bug
h. Gil Kane's Sword of the Atom miniseries
i. The first two Sword of the Atom specials
j. The World's Finest by Gibbons / Rude trade paperback
k. In truth, I'm making this all up...I haven't just returned to Australia, I didn't use to live in New York, and I don't actually own any comic books.

OK, guesses have been slow, so some summary of info provided. So far, the following guesses have been made:
c. twice
d. twice
e. once
g. once
h. three times
j. once
k. once
I gave the hint that one person has guessed one right answer, so you can eliminate c,d, h, (and also K).
So, we know that there is a right answer amongst this list:
e. Three parts of the first Mark Waid arc of Flash ("Born to Run"),
g. The Secret Origins issue featuring Ambush Bug
j. The World's Finest by Gibbons / Rude trade paperback
and another right answer on this list:
a. LSH v. 3 (Baxter series) #'s 6-12
b. Thriller #'s 1-6
f. The Ambush Bug Stocking Stuffer special
i. The first two Sword of the Atom specials

In these last two posts, once again there's been one correct answer posted. It's one that has been guessed before.
The second correct answer hasn't been guessed by anyone yet.

You got it, Lance's realm. Actually, I had pulled out both the Thriller issues and the Secret Origins / Ambush Bug story (because I ran across it as I was getting my other Ambush Bug stuff), intending to bring them back to Australia with me, but I ended up reading them before I left, and then leaving them to save space.

Clarke was my favorite when I was much younger, but is not my current favorite. Hickman is also incorrect.
