  1. So.... showcase New England blowing out 1300 CGC 9.8 slabs on Ebay at $22 each. Doesn't ship to the UK Do any of you chaps have ways or people to get round this? I only saw a couple that I wanted and at $22 it's enough to make you cry
  2. I'm thinking Negan has a boss who lets him run things the way he wants but brings him back into line every once in a while?
  3. Finally got round to a pic of this. In case you were wondering about r100comics colour guides that he had for sale recently. I get the entire book (39 pages) for a bargain price and had this done to my fav. colourist page on the left, comic page on the right. Many thanks Beltan!
  4. Just arrived Yep, Charlie photocopied the 1st image and re-used it
  5. I tried that with Borderlands: Origins. Was promptly told they were available at cover price from website A & B. Bought copies from website A & B. Sold them on Ebay at 6X cover
  6. But this came 1st and if this counts then ALL your 1st appearances need changing. 1st appearance of Deadpool? Diamond Previews #37 etc etc etc
  7. Just sitting down to read #106. Made the BIG mistake of flipping to the last page this afternoon. I have to wait a month after that!!!!
  8. Oh it counts, sadly you will get a bunch or jokers who will say no because they are heavily invested in books they mistakenly think are the first appearance. Nice work on finding this one! I said somewhere in the Is Spider-man Superior thread that Marvel Previews 2 actually contains the first Superior Spidey. No one acknowledged my post at the time. I remember very distinctly picking it up and flipping through it. It came out one week before DD21 even if you count DD21 to contain Superior's first appearance. Even if you discount Marvel Previews 2, which was free, I think it's really Avenging Spidey 15.1 that's the first app. Anyway, a year from now Superior will be inferior and the title will be canceled. So what do you believe? If you said somewhere that the preview is the first then what changed your mind between now and then? I'll tell you this-go look on ebay and see how many of those previews you can track down. I found 1. The market is saturated with those other books you mentioned. The same thing is happening with Annihilation conquest 6. Issue one of Abnett's GOTG has blown up, saw one going for 60+ this weekend but you can't find a copy of Conquest 6 anywhere ( the true first appearance of the team that will appear in the film.) I'll put 100 on Ebay UK when I get to work tomorrow. Will that satisfy you, They're as rare as X-Force #1s. Came in packages of 25 and as a small shop we got 250 copies. You found 1 because no-one is interested I'll take them off your hands, I'll buy the whole lot despite the fact that your a fan of Superman. All going free to customers, another 50 went out today with mail order. Try your LCS, they're still available from Diamond.
  9. Borderlands Origins - recent ebay sales #1 x 2 - £8.95 each #1 (1:10 variant) - £14.95 #2 - £7.95 all B.I.N

  11. 5K Glad I pulled the trigger on this then http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181056377574?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
  12. (thumbs u not at you Krighton, just that mister ween seems to want everything to be the 1st appearance of Superior Spiderman. a calender...... puhlease!
  13. Can anyone remember when Newsarama first mentioned Superior Spiderman, I may buy the internet as that's sure to be his 1st appearance
  14. Just spoke to Rich at Limited Edition, Whizzer will be along later with an update here.
  15. Where? Here's where they can be found. http://www.ltd-edition-comix.com/searchresults.aspx?searchterm=superior%20spider-man I had not heard of them before, but fb page and all looks legit. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Limited-Edition-American-Comic-Shop-wwwltd-edition-comixcom/141468539229445 Deffo legit. Whizzer from the boards is one of em. I think Midtown are taking this variant so may be worth checking with them
  16. Don't know about school-girl giddy but I do enjoy convo with newbies about the book -- I have put on quite a few people to the book and have even gotten some people into other comics from first getting them into WD -- its a great feeling to see other people get excited about our hobby Of course, There are others who make fun - one of my friends texted me "I think I saw you outside NYCC, were you wearing a wonder-woman outfit" i love getting new people into TWD. I got my gf and two of my good friends into it. It's pretty awesome being able to go out on a full discussion about the book with newbies And yet... all that people are ever seem interested in talking about on this thread is the secondary market, the price of OA, the money to be made, who's selling what on ebay etc. etc. etc. Oh - except for the 24 hours or so of conversation about the actual plot that we get once a month after the latest issue is released. Very little "full on discussion" happening. That's not a dig at anyone in particular - it's clear that the majority of people that post on this thread are far more interested in the "value" side of things, complaining about splash page prices and showing each other their latest eBay purchases - fair play to them, I just wish there was another thread to talk about the story without having to wade through pages of it... I'd love to talk about the comic But it's always "Hey spoilers! I've been waiting for the 100 issue Super Compendium to come out & you just went and ruined issue #2 for me "
  17. If Daredevil came out before 700 why would you suggest that book over DD 21? I'd suggest none of them. This is a story, no different from FF 587 or Cap 25. It'll all be over soon enough. If you do speculate, flip quickly. Yes I agree. Conformation that Superior first appeared in DD 21 comes when DD 22 comes out. I still say DD 21 is the first appearance and not 700. Doc Oc has been Spiderman for some months now so your argument is missing a few issues, he appeared at the end of Daredevil #21, he's also appeared recently (as Doc Oc Spidey) in Avengers Vs X-Men, Avenging Spiderman, Avengers, New Avengers etc etc etc so technically his 1st appearance could be any number of comics from the last few months. His 1st appearance in new Superior Spiderman Costume is Avenging Spiderman #15.1 And which issues are those that he appears in as Superior Spider-Man besides 700, dd21 and Avenging 15.1? Not the point I was making. He has been Doc Oc / Spiderman for months is the point I was making but to answer your question, He appears as Superior Spiderman in 1: ASM 700 "I will become a Superior Spiderman" 2: Avenging 15.1 - In Costume 3: DD 21 - in continuity If DD #21 is his 1st appearance then Marvel Nows continuity is f%$k3D up from day one, Like I said I'm going with what the writer/Marvel employee says the first appearance is. You cannot count any Doc Oc Appearances as a SS appearance prior to DD21, they can only be counted when he is in costume as SS which is in DD21 first. You need to re-read Daredevil #21 then, SS has a claw on the toes of his feet, this is clearly NOT visible in DD#21 Who cares if a claw is visible? You only see a hand push Peter Parker in Web of Spider-Man 18 and we know that's a venom cameo because Marvel confirmed it. Granted that it is only a cameo but the example in DD 21 is a much better one ( we can actually see the character ) and Dan Slott CONFIRMED DD 21 is the first appearance of SS. I'm not sure what more you need to be convinced. in silhouette? with no foot claw. I need to see the end of Avenging #15.1 to be convinced. "I've seen myself through Peter Parkers lens now" Pulls on clawed boot. "I've seen my mistakes" pulls on new Superior Spidey top. "And things are going to change" Pulls on new Claw gloves. "Because Otto Octavious is no more" Shot of new Chest emblem. "His days are long over" Shot of new eye lens. "Doctor Octopus is Dead, Long Live the Superior Spiderman" Full colour shot of Superior Spiderman with hand & foot claws, new chest emblem & new lens" or you could go with DD #21 where some blacked out character with red arms says I'm going to crush Daredevil. You enjoy yourself, I know what I'm stocked up on So let me get this straight. you are using quotes to prove your point but those words were written by people who work for Marvel and have already stated this: [/img] I cannot believe I had to post this twice by the way and I do enjoy myself...regularly. No, I was describing the last 2 pages of Avenging in detail. DD #21 contains the 1st appearance of Silhouette Spiderman (and to the poster above who asked, no you can't see his lenses in DD 21). I'll wait for graded copies if that makes you happy, let CGC decide if it's a 1 panel silhouette of well could be anyone really or 2 pages of new costume, a full page splash in new costume & the mystery character saying "Doctor Octopus is Dead, Long Live the Superior Spiderman" ? why? enlighten us. (I don't really give a monkeys, I've just been wanting one of these Uber quote threads for a while) (thumbs u
