  1. I like the varied range of material you collect, Jimmers! (thumbs u
  2. Kickarse cover. Must get a copy. (thumbs u
  3. Pretty sure #19 is, guessing about the others. Thanks for the cover scans. (thumbs u I've just had a look at the Starlin Wiki page and it states... Mighty World of Marvel 2-20, 22, 24, 26 His version of The Hulk is quite distinctive, and one of my favourites. I did recall he'd done quite a few covers, but had no idea which ones exactly.
  4. When I first started reading distributed American comic books in 1973, the first artist I really liked was Jim Starlin. I wonder if seeing Starlin covers on British Marvels a few months before had any bearing on this? I liked them, even though I never realised he'd drawn them. Thanks for posting these covers.
  5. I'd completely forgotten, but the posted cover reminded me - especially with it being by Starlin.
  6. I think Starlin did some original cover art for the first few issues of the title.
  7. I was disappointed. With it being the original, unedited version, I expected it to be quite rude.
  8. Have Solar one and OccultFiles one in nice shape,a tonne of a little bit of everything else.as a kid they seemed to be at every garage sale I went to.Luckily I took care of and kept them all.Boris Karloff Is probably m fave. You can get TP collections of Gold Key Magnus and Solar.
  9. -slym As I've said before, I see myself as being more of a cormorant than a loon. That's the path I choose to follow.
  10. via Imgflip Meme Generator Guardians of the Galaxy - The Early Years : The Young Rocket Raccoon Chronicles.
  11. Unfortunately the first-generation cats won't get much cheaper because of one genetic disadvantage of the cross-breeding--all the males are born sterile. Or at least the vast majority are. The females can bear young, and that's why I called the type I want a "first-generation" Savannah--that's when a domestic cat is bred directly with a serval. "Second generation" is when a female Savannah breeds with another domestic male, so the kittens are born with fewer of the serval traits. They're quite a bit smaller, for one thing, but they're also much cheaper since you can make so many kittens from a Savannah female. I'd imagine many of the other traits I described earlier aren't there in the later-generation Savannahs such as the dog-like behavior or extreme agility and jumping ability, but I'm not sure. Many of the distant-generation kittens from a serval still have the distinctive spots and are comparatively cheap--around $100 to $500--although they're usually about the size of a domestic cat, i.e. 10 to 20 pounds. That wild, spotted look is often what people like about them though, so distant-generation Savannahs are fairly sought after. Thanks for the info. I'm in that group - not too bothered about F1, as long as there's the serval-like spot pattern. The blue-coated breed looks very cool.
  12. I'd like to have a Savannah. Just can't afford one.
  13. I would like to talk about the cabal more, but I've already said too much.
  14. I will believe this only if it is confirmed by our resident expert on the subject, Garry.
  15. What makes you think you're in the Cabal? Cheeky, I'll make sure your membership is revoked. I'm putting myself forward for the position of cabal treasurer. There are also rumours about the existence of a double secret, exclusive, Brit / European PM chat thread. A shadowy, transatlantic conspiracy.
  16. Was Snow her first or last name? This isn't a Police Squad sketch. Surely it is. Tonight's episode - The Taste Of Fear!!! No sax before a fight.
  17. Very enjoyable series. Wacky out there ideas but enjoyable. If you read Jodorowsky / Moebius stories in the 70s and 80s, not too difficult to get your head around. Decent series. (thumbs u
  18. Cold. Bleak. Icy. Snowy. Atmospheric. Nice. (thumbs u (seriously)
  19. I meant the Marvel Fact Files / Who's Who magazines, not the GN collections Paul has.
  20. This type of book can get dated and irrelevant quite quickly, as well.
