  1. To make it short and sweet.... Nate as it turns out, is 100% the problem and has admitted it due to some mental health issues. He claims the book will come out eventually but it looks like that wont be for a long time as he is still in treatment. In otherwords, ES was being good enough to take some heat on NWM while Nate was seeking treatment. With that said, he should have just gotten a fill in artist until Nate got better and then brought Nate back in with a big splash. Glad Nate spoke up.....hope the book really does come out again some day. I have read each issue 4-5 times now, LOVE the story
  2. I actually enjoy the fact that they slowed things down. Gives us a chance to see Sacagawea interact a bit. "3 times now"
  3. It has been a fabulous spec if you were in from ground floor. I said we'd see about Figment going forward. That was about a month ago. Larry has been right so far. There has been a several week window to sell this book above cover. It may not stay this way, but, as of now, Larry's game plan to sell this book into the window of opportunity has been a winner. Bought a Figment #2 off the stands this weekend and sold it less than 24 hours later for $16.50 - Larry nailed this one, and he's right that video game/tv/other books with non comic-book fan-bases tend to sell well for years as sets. I sold a VF set of Chuck 1-6 for $50 once, and Injustice Vol 1 is still selling well a year later. If I knew how to get my hands on sets of Figment 1-4 first printings at cover price, I'd pull the trigger! I doubt Figment will ever drop below $25 per set; They'll probably average closer to $50 for years to come. Yep. IMO he has been 2 for 2 with the last 2 picks. Enormous has been doing pretty good as well. I wouldn't have known about either one [before hand] if he had not said anything.
  4. Thanks! Have a cyber beer on me! http://funny.fluky.org/pages/cyber_beer.htm
  5. Sales seem to be on the rebound and doing well the past few days on the bay. For the nay sayers.....too good of a book to poo on it. Cant wait for next weeks issue!
  6. That is it from what I have found. Read the one shot and 1st issue. The one shot has some basic concepts of the first ongoing but the on going has much more detail with the one shot going quickly through a bunch of situations. I have a feeling the ongoing will be exploring these situations with much more detail and explanation. The one shot is a crazy quick ride. ' Issue 1 = about 2 pages of the one shot if that explains better
  7. Yeah it's crashing hard, if you have any i'd get out now. I have an LBCC but wonder if I should cash out now while the going is good. With the scarcity of this particular book, I'm wondering if I should just hang onto this particular variant just in case? As the guys said, they are dropping like stones. You should sell it to me super cheap. lolol
  8. Spent the long weekend sorting by long boxes. I new I had a lot of #1s as I went hard when it came out, loved the book and bought a bunch more but what I didn't know was that I picked up a few Staples as well. Found a decent stack of them. Sweet! Not a huge stack but when I didn't even know I had them....that's a score :-)
  9. I have a difference of opinion. I don't see the prices crashing...they were inflated and have settled at a nice price. I bet they float around the current sales for a bit and slow rise back up over the next few months. Anyhow, anyone looking to sell cheap, I am your huckleberry. Cant have too many of an awesome book.
  10. Wait......they are doing a Walking Dead and Invincible cross-over??! Ermagawd Straight monies
  11. yea with a bit of googling i confirmed it as well... Generally the previews are considered first appearances. Not in this case though... Thanks for doing the homework. Appreciate it! (thumbs u
  12. What about the COA from MCS that says there are only 5k copies? http://www.auctiva.com/hostedimages/showimage.aspx?gid=1172680&ppid=1122ℑ=676776509&images=676776464,676776509&formats=0,0&format=0 The COI is from Lone Star Comics. Lone Star Comics and mycomicshop are one and the same. Pwned! ....yep I just went there Not anymore. Buddy sold all his retail stores last year. +1 Something is weird about that. when I purchase from MCS it shows up Lone Star on the address. If you go to the MCS website, it shows a Lone Star location and has "copyright of Lone Star" at bottom of website pages.

  14. Love me some Helheim and cant wait for the next arc. As for Debris, I actually just reread the run the other day. Good little story for those that haven't read it. Still feel it could have been turned into a bigger world and longer run/story
  15. Agree. Awesome issue no question. To be honest I was VERY slowly getting down on the book. Went from #1 for me every month to say #15 every month but with this issue....back to my top #5
  16. Not sure why this came to mind, but I could see Mickey Rourke playing Earl.
  17. The book is packed with stuff going on from action to back story to character development. Fantastic book and lots going on at once. However, the overall story is a very slow burn so would agree with the perception that it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
  18. There Is an article on Bleedings site saying he is finishing up Starlight and MPH and Jupiter is done but not coming out until end of Summer
  19. Are you kidding ? http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=321440212134&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2565 ..and 10 copies went for $65 http://www.ebay.com/itm/OUTCAST-1-Robert-Kirkman-Walking-Dead-2014-10-copies-all-NM-9-8-lot-set-run-/281363078341?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item41828bdcc5 It appears there may be a shortage... It's not a shortage, it's a bottleneck, just wait until the bottleneck clears. haha ! No doubt. I was really hoping for a 3peat to with TWD and Invincible. So far, the jury is out as I've heard from people who love and hate it. I'm hoping I fall into at least " I kind of like it " category. It is fantastic IMO.
  20. I could totally see an EoW animated now thanks to this post. Off to day dream now!
  21. Haha ditto that. Wasted enough money on flavors of the week that never went anywhere. *Cough cough* Watson & Holmes, Helheim, Day Men, Escape From Jesus Island (cue the angry jagoff's response in 3-2-1...) Watson & Holmes and Day men certainly fetch a decent price. Good wins if you paid cover or less.
