  1. Was this supposed to be a reference to Rupp's memes? If so, you are even more of a [insert insult of choice here] than I previously thought. Pretty sure it was...jaw dropping eh?This fellow has too many holes in his manners.
  2. I'm watching that now I first saw it on TV in oh,82/83...I was fivish.When we left my cousins house,the grown up were playing cards and had no idea what we were watching,it was foggy out.I got so scared and upset I threw up....on the way to the car...in the car..
  3. That is the second copy off WW 21 I've seen this year...sheesh its a great cover! On the list!
  4. Lulz, guess I've punched a lot of kittens. I suspect the powerful attachment to slabs is from a newer generation of collectors, ones too young to have bought books off the rack that turned out to be valuable after many decades, and who haven't bought back issues in the unslabbed or cracked out state so they could build runs to be read and re-read. Even putting aside the chance to access the entire comic rather than just the covers, to me comics are much more beautiful in mylars rather than slabs, and most beautiful of all in hand. For me, comics are for collecting, slabs are for selling. Well said sir!
  5. Yep,to read them. I also find they look better in mylar.I save the label and chamber paper,storing the label behind the backing board.Also easier to store.My pedigrees and way hg are the only ones I keep encoffinated really.Oh,and SS.
  6. There are still some LCS using them that can't understand why I don't buy. I'm looking for one of the 'Hey Kids,COMICS ' ones that had Spidey on them...I think they were mid 80s...all over Ontario at the time,up to about 1990....now I can't find one anywhere...not including feebay.
