Remember when Greggy hit 30k posts after his first four days? Each one more vapid and meaningless than the last...

We are less than 24 hours for the 2016 convention

Never to late to start preparing for the next one

10 months, 27 days to go

Short year! Love that.

I got here far too late to enjoy the action firsthand but I've always been curious as to what happened with the lawsuit

 

Same thing that happend to the lawsuits he threatened me with, nothing.

 

He also wanted to beat me up so I posted a picture of myself, gave him my address and also posted when and where I would be at comic cons. Coward never showed.

 

Classic.

 

More classic than the time he offered to fly me to NYC, buy me a steak dinner, and then murder me? He was the best of all of us. <3

 

Did you take him up? I have to believe, of that offer, he wouldn't come through.

 

 

 

-slym

I did. I'm dead now. The steak was delicious, though.

Yours,

Ghost of Lego

This thread. Amazing.

All this is nothing... Let us not forget the time Hammer offered to fly a Greatly Distinguished and Now-Long Departed forumite to New York City, buy him a steak dinner, then murder him with his bare hands afterward.

I think the comic is just ok and definitely overrated...

 

but...

 

I am definitely super psyched about the tv series!

 

What comics are you reading right now that are better than TWD? What, in your opinion is not overrated?

Good point. It's all terrible.

(But Fables is infinitely better than TWD, for starters.)

sweet. I hope that in the TV show, Rick keeps his hand

 

I think that they would have him keep the hand, at least for a number of seasons... it would be rather difficult to have the actor with a "handless" prosthesis and have it look good and not get expensive

Also, people would say: "Wait, didn't we already see Bruce Campbell do this?"

Anyone see Jennifer's body? Hate the name "Jennifer" and the movie probably sucks, but Megan Fox

 

Yes.... and . Only thing that saved this movie was the beer (since we saw it at a movie tavern) and the 10 year old boy sitting next to us screaming, at the top of his lungs mind you, "eat the (censored word rhymes with wussy)" during the girl on girl kissing scene...

The 10 year old was saying that??? Oh you gotta love parenting skills nowadays.

 

It was a group of about 7 or 8 kids with one kids grandma who was sleeping through the whole movie... and I left out a descriptor of the kids... it's the one that made me want to turn to the kids and tell them "you don't have to live up to the stereotype!"

What stereotype would that be?

There are hundreds of collectors on these boards. Do you really think any of us will do business with you after a post like that?

 

Honestly?

 

If he has what they want, and the price is what they'll pay, then yes.

 

Sad but true.

 

Not all of us share your muddied moral ambiguity, Rocky.

 

So speak for yourself next time and not for the "collective," as you are want to do.

 

But you'll never read this because of your dire chronic case of butthurt. Ho hum.

Fix'd.

I had the camera out to transfer some photos and I ended up taking a few new ones of my freshly-painted and semi-redecorated comic room. These are only of one wall. Someday I might get more ambitious and take pictures of the other three, but this is all I've got for now:

I saw the Raiders' helmets and thought "man, I feel your pain." Then I saw the Chiefs' helmets and thought "okay, that's just messed up."

Not only does he appear very, very conflicted, he appears to be headed for a world of hurt this year (and next year and the year after that...).

So, is the guy lying or is this Kirkman going back on another of his promises about the book (never revealing what caused the plague)?

Really an amazing room, WP!

So what is the procedure for getting someone put on the Probation List? Especially someone who's a repeat offender? A poll was started about this in the Comicseekers Longbox Debacle thread:

 

http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=3271767#Post3271767

 

So far 85% are for adding to the list, if not banning.

 

 

There is no mechanism for banning. The closest we have is the "Hall of Shame". The poll would indicate that he is a qualified candidate

 

Has 30 days from initial payment for any malodorous box transaction passed yet?

 

Malodorous. :think: Time to hit the dictionary.

 

No need . . . = Stinky

Like your Fantasy Football teams?

Holy Shizz!!

 

so these guys are just not friends anymore? whats the story?

 

Supposedly Tony and Robert are still "friends", but decided never to work together again on another project. What it boiled down to (from what I've heard) is that Tony had trouble meeting deadlines when the Walking Dead was starting to get fairly popular. This led to some arguments and....yadda yadda...

Yeah, TWD has been nothing but on-time and as-scheduled since Tony left waaaay back then.

ooooohhh dear! found clips on youtube. wont be rushing out to buy a copy in a hurry.

 

I remember it

This is the sort of sentiment I expect from current Walking Dead fans in a few years...

And "Children of the Dead" was putrid. I watched it for free and I wanted my money back.

I'd like to propose the banning of "Mystery Box" sales here on the Boards as a new "guideline"

I'd like to propose not buying "Mystery Boxes" if you're not ready to handle the you're likely to get.

It seems a bad idea to me to start legislating common sense.

Wow, I'm starting to lose track of what's going on around here lately.

 

I do have a small suggestion though relevant to the recent goings on. How about adding this to the Sales Forum Guidelines: bulk sales must be accompanied by a complete list of inventory with grades and any discerning defects such as water damage, impact damage, tears, foxing etc. Maybe even group photos of inventory for future reference if there are any disputes over what was actually received.

 

If people want to sell a bulk lot then why not put the effort in? Then any bulk listings without the pertinent information provided get pulled thus avoiding the situation that's currently going on in the Probation thread.

 

A long winded guideline to add I know, but it could save a lot af trouble in the long run.

 

What's the point of selling in bulk if you have to grade them all out?

 

 

That sort of logic and reason has no place in this market, sir. The idea of "caveat emptor" clearly holds absolutely NO meaning for a group who would buy from children and/or would buy in bulk sight unseen.

There's a simple reason why you will never find a marketplace like this one anywhere else:

They are crushed under the greed, stupidity, and laziness of their own patrons.

:o Dude based on that image, I'm already on the bandwagon.

No doubt! Was there another 28 Days Later book, or is this the first?

Big kudos to October for some really great-looking DCs!

I just picked up the first 9 TPBs on ebay the other day and I'm going through a TPB a night. Never thought I'd be a big Zombie fan.

 

The one question I had without giving too much away is does it ever get explained why if someone dies( a regular death) they come back as a Zombie? I figured you needed to get bit by one to become one.

 

It may have been answered in this thread, but no freakin way am I reading all of these pages.

They don't always come back...

I think each WD fan here should pose a question or comment bout the series, and someone should cut and paste all of them and email them to the letter column. This thread must be recognized in the pages of TWD!

 

1st question: Will they ever do an issue in color?

 

Will there truly be an explanation for what happened to cause the Dead to walk?

I think Kirkman has said that there will never be an explanation.

Gift grade!! nice one (thumbs u

 

How is that a 9.6?? Did they get it confused with another copy? Do you have a 9.6 in an 8.0 case somewhere?

 

Not to rag on someone's book... but that really doesn't look like a 9.6 to me either. Why is it that when CGC misses the grade(s) on my book(s) it's always unfavourable?

Why is it that when someone takes the time to share their books, some dickhead has to give them grief?

 

Glad to see you saved up all your person_without_enough_empathying and moaning for this thread, Watson. (thumbs u

I may be surly in general, but at least I'm not a shill.

I don't know you, so, by your standards of shillness, you are.
