  1. Fatigue only applies to those who give a hoot abt variants. Not the bystanders.
  2. Could you show us something that's better for you for the prices he commands ? It would give some perspective on what you are comparing against.
  3. Have u tried this ? https://browserhow.com/how-to-save-and-manage-passwords-on-opera-browser/#:~:text=All the passwords are stored locally on the opera browser,Opera Browser on the computer.
  4. Much better fantasy art ? It's all subjective but we can and should at least try to categorise them. Comparing a rothko to a caravaggio makes little sense. In the world of fantasy art, frazetta would be in most pples top 3.
  5. Maybe we should have a losers' pool for average grade for the 5 books.
  6. I don't think they are the same books. Look at the B on Bunny for e.g.. Seems to have a crease on the 9.6 copy unless it's just glare. The grass patch near Bugs feet also looks different. And how in the world did that copy get a 9.6. The 9.0 looks way sharper.
  7. Think the prices have already risen significantly but the real insanity is we dweebs keep paying them. It's their right to charge whatever they want. If demand drops maybe they will adjust or they may not care. Think Jim Lee's sletch prices are so high that any higher won't make a whit of difference.
  8. What a dynamic xmen page. I certainly think the prices will be limp generally except for premium pieces which will never go soft.
  9. Really now. ASM 33, 50. FF 51 are classics. This is just at the top of my head. If you're comparing him to Dickens or Joyce then maybe so. He definitely wasn't atrocious by any measure.
  10. Exactly. Panels 6-8 were all stats. I was hoping it would land in the low 20s. Thought it was on par with pricing for V pages. A page with no stats with V would probably have been in the high 30s at least. Thought the real deal was the Sandman page with morpheus ending at 90k. That's for the heavy hitters but a steal. I don't see that ever selling below that amt. Reminds me when Frankenstein plates were 'affordable' once and I thought they were too expensive.
  11. They said he had aspergers. Looking from that lens and the time period then, where there wasn't much awareness about spectrum disorders, his behaviour isn't all that surprising.
  12. Thanks. Yes, I agree. Think was unfortunate to get that PQ. Great copy regardless.
  13. Had to check but I got that copy. Pity about the centerfold and PQ, but I'm glad I got it then.
  14. Here's mine. I probably overpaid but I def know I can't afford a blue copy.
  15. Wouldn't bother me at all. It's part and parcel. Since you asked the qn, would it bother you if you were a potential buyer ?
  16. Sir, it was truly awful. I wept watching Conan the destroyer as a child and was so hopeful for this one. Maybe one day we will see some Dir's cut. At least I will always have the first one to help me cope.
  17. I wouldn't say it's necessarily racist. More of a stereotype. But at least it's a stereotype that's positive. And it's a fact that many Asians are in tech. I'm happy he is getting work and even more happy he wasn't cast as Loki instead.
  18. Just wanted to update that I managed to sell my collection (albeit with a heavy heart). As many of you suggested I reached out to MCS and they were truly awesome. They gave a me a great offer. Honestly I was surprised as I didn't think they would be interested. I always rated them but this was next level. They were professional and made an offer days after i contacted them. So just wanted to give a shout out to them. Ultimately though, I got another offer which was local and saved me the hassle of shipping overseas which would have been an ordeal as I had a few thousand books. Wanted to thank all, for the advice I was given on the forum. Was rly helpful. I have lots of space now. I'm already looking at buying some tpbs and omnibuses to replace some of the books I sold.
