Tec-Tac-Toe

I agree; I would like to like it but ... Edit: Having visited the BC website, I note that the print run for the virgin cover of this comic book is 1500, up from, I believe, the always standard BC 1000 run, and the price is $45.00 which is an increase, if I recall correctly, from $30, $35, and $40 for BC's virgin covers over, roughly, the last two years. Of course, BC can print as many copies and charge per copy as it wishes. Action #1000 Dell 'Otto Virgin Variant $45.00 Add to Cart The monumental issue painted by perhaps the grandest cover artist of our generation, Gabriele Dell'Otto! Bulletproof is proud to present Action #1000 Limited to 1500 print run. Note: Pre-sale will begin on Tuesday , March 13th @ Noon EST. This book cannot be ordered till then.

It does not matter how frequently Dell'Otto draws Superman, it is just that, to restate, unfortunately, I just find this work to be blah.

Unfortunately, I find it very blah compared to much of his other work.

Appears so. Oh, well, another blow to my early retirement plans.

Based on many posts that I have seen from the op, they have, arguably, an obsession with "race/gender." Op, take that as you will. Edit: I forgot to mention that I was raised in Weehawken, NJ.

Darn, there goes my early retirement.

Edit: refer to my comment below. I will only add, yes, yes indeed, ComicXposure ... I was "exposed" to "it."

Thank you!

Come to think of it, I likely have at least 5 copies of A S-M 396. Perhaps I can pay people to take those off my hands.

Pat, I meant to type 796 (396 was a typo).

Pat, Yes, A S-M 396 was certainly a dump; although all of the "new" A-S-M, 789>, very likely are.

Yes, it seems that Amazing Spider-Man 797 will be the first Red Goblin. Amazing Spider-Man 796 is a fizzle in that respect; well except for those folks spending quite a bit to purchase copies of it on eBay or otherwise.

Yes, I also received a few, very few, NM/M / 9.8 and NM+ / 9.6 copies from JSC.com. But, unfortunately, far more were the grades that I listed previously. When I contacted them about the books I was always informed that most of the books had the same damage, it was blamed on Marvel Comics' printing. Yet, on eBay, for example; although, arguably, a skewed sample as most folks may list only the best copies that they own; I would find a great many examples of copies that did not have the damage that my copies had. Accordingly, it was clear that for whatever reason I was sent among the most damaged copies that JSC.com had available. After my purchase of I forget which cover, as I was buying a JSC cover, I got off the JSC train never to board again outside of the "regular variants."

I stopped purchasing Campbell covers over a year ago as not only were the copies I received from J Scott Campbell.com frequently VF/NM / 9.0 to NM- / 9.2 (sometimes VF / 8.0) including replacement copies, but the few extra copies that I purchased to sell, to cover my purchase costs, never sold; I keep them all in a visible pile to remind me to avoid purchasing Campbell covers unless they are the "cheap" variant covers.

Yes, it could be much better to say the least.

Pat, doing well and I hope that you and your family are also doing well. Okay, no price increase for WWBN 32. I purchased my second copy, CGC graded at VF/8.0 in around 1982 for, at most, $5. I'll check my "log" to see if I wrote it down. I gave the copy that I purchased off the newsstand to one of my cousins as a birthday gift when we were both kids; who knew. Since the first price spike for this book we'll talk about it and laugh. Of course, I also cry ; nah, we have always been very close and he enjoyed the heck out of the book.

Pat and I hope WWBN 32 goes up and up.

I was always posting non-stop, now I barely post.

I believe it is Feb., 15.

I believe that BP's DNM #6 goes on sale on Thursday, February 15, 2018.

That, in the words of a very wise individual, truly sucks.

Unfortunately, I did not do a search for a ComicXposure thread on the board prior to my rather recent exposure to this so-called store. Thus, I will note that having dealt with ComicXposure once, is once too often. Further, I would, repeat, would say that it lacks customer service but that would be too kind; it would not know customer service if it was cohabitating with customer service.
