Ant-Man

Filled a gaping hole in my Thor run. Actually, I think this was the last Silver that I needed for all of the titles that came from anthology books (Cap, Iron Man, Hulk & Thor). That's kinda cool.

Possibly the best white elephant win ever!

Great thread in Comics General Some of the images are gone, but there is a list on page 1. There is also a link to Doug's Whitman page in case the list has been updated (pg 5 or 6?).

A few Russian mice ... and Christmas covers to boot.

I hope the story is better than the anime-style artwork. Spirit Of Vengeance, what have they done to thee?

Don't venture into the Moderns too much, but how did I miss Spider Ham?

Can't remember the last time I picked up a Silver Age Spidey.

Bought a book from Brian that he got ahead of me by less than a minute a few months back. Worked out a deal & couldn't be happier. Hope to deal with again.

Good stuff Juggernaut, thanks.

While searching for Copper Age posters, I came across my program from the '91 Chicago Comicon, which contains the following interview w/Kevin Eastman. I apologize for the twelve consecutive images, but my scanner and I are not speaking right now.

Thanks TMNT.

Cross-posted from the 'Copper Age Posters' thread. Does anyone know if this image has been used elsewhere?

And here is each individual ornament. Sorry if you can't see the artwork on each, but I've never opened them, so they may not be facing the right way.

Since we have officially turned the corner on Thanksgiving & started the Christmas season, let me be the first to wish all of the shellheads on these boards a very Happy Holidays. Here is the set as a whole.

My first deal with getslabbed.com. Stewart seems easy to work with.

A few Asgardian 2nd appearances ...

Four free pressings with a paid membership?

This.

I don't remember CGC saying that pressing was not resto, it just could not be detected, so it wasn't noted on the purple label. Asking other companies to disclose if a book being submitted was pressed? Those companies have no responsability to do so. But if CGC (or a CGC-owned entity) is providing that service & it is known, I would think it must be disclosed. If not on the purple label (highest level of disclosure), then at minimum in the graders notes (hidden from view, but available for a fee). Would that put CGC at a possible disadvantage? Sure. The books they pressed would be disclosed as such, but if the book was pressed by Company X, it goes through undetected. It would give CGC a leg up in the integrity column, but there's not a whole lot of $ rolling in from being honest. I can't imagine that they would buy a service and then put books that went through it at a disadvantage within the hobby. Looking for a silver lining, do you think that the census numbers will come back to reality? If books are given to Matt still in slabs, the old # could be removed (not sure if he currently submits labels with pressed books).

Yeah, not exactly the Executioner that I think of in the Thor mythos.
