Some personal artwork? Thought some other DD fans would think it was cool. Guess not. I think it's cool I had to go back a few pages to figure out what you were talking about, but here it is . This public service announcement brought to you by Sherlock Mac Nice! Sorry if I confused you, been off the boards for a couple years, just started logging back on. I Always liked the personal artwork thread so it was one of my first stops. By the way, Daredevil has been my favorite since the eighties when I first started reading comics.

I took a chance and pre-ordered Destiny the other day. I guess it wasn't much of a chance since it was only 5.00. Anybody got this game on their radar as possibly the next big leap forward in FPS or video games in general? If anybody can give us the next big thing, Bungie can...or Bioware

Is it just me or does SquareEnix release awesome games? Great reviews for this on Metacritic.

I have a few Kotobukiya statues in the house. Decided it would be fun to put one on paper, since I never take the darn things out of the box and I don't really get to enjoy them that much as a result. I took a photo from a position I liked and went from there. I changed a few things with the hair and I added some details here and there. Then I got the idea that since it was a Bishoujo statue that I should turn it into sort of a Japanese comic cover. I'm not positive that is how you write Black Widow in Japanese, I used an English to Japanese translation app on my iPhone, so it is what it is. Regardless, the point is made I guess. I'm at a crossroads on how far to take this. Part of me wants to add some value to it another part of me wants to leave it as a line drawing and just ink it.

I mostly added this since my pencil work was a little darker in this one and could be seen better, but it didn't have the Black widow title. DSCN0206 by dicjones, on Flickr]Black Widow 2[/url]

My wife and I are playing Borderlands 2 as well. Our code phrase for initiating a play session if we are sitting around doing nothing is "wanna go blow some mess up?" Once one of us says that,it's on! I'm itching to go and buy Ni No Kuni. A JRPG by Level 5 and Studio Ghibli, yes that Studio Ghibli. It's getting great reviews. Also, XCOM: Enemy Unkiwn is an awesome game for us strategy game guys.

Buy 'em online and have them delivered... http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10011055/ Thanks for the info... I was digging around looking for these. Thanks for the link, I've been trying to find something to put my statues in, besides individual acrylic cases. That display case may be just the thing for my new room.

Thanks for all the nice comments. Hopefully this will be the first in a series of pictures I will have to show you guys over the coming months or years. To Sufunk: Yeah, old house are great, the craftsmanship that they used to employ back then just cant be matched today. Nothing against new houses, it just wasn't an option my wife and I even thought about.

My wife and I and our three kids live in a 1200 square foot ranch house. It is crowded to say the least. I have always been envious of all the cool comic rooms you guys post on the boards. I've managed to scrounge out a "comic corner" in our current house. All that is about to change, we are moving to a much larger house and the best part is it has 5 bedrooms...one more than we need. You know what that means? That's right baby, a whole comic room for myself, my wife even gave me the approval...ok well, sort of, it's a comic room slash guest room, but I'll take what I can get. Best part is, when my parents come to visit they get to sleep in there. It will drive them absolutely crazy that I never completely grew up and I still collect comics to this day....bwwahahahaha!!!!!!

Gratz! I've been looking for that book in 9.8 forever! Thanks to this book I just passed you in the Miller DD Registry

Gratz! I've been looking for that book in 9.8 forever! I know what you mean! I thought for sure I'd be dropping big bucks to get this in my collection. They rarely come up for sale, making it that much harder. This book is what the hobby is all about....the chase.It's always such a rush to find a hidden gem like this just waiting out there for somebody to find it.

Got eight books back on Tuesday. This one is the one I was most excited about. I bought this last year raw from Superworld. He had it listed at NM+ but told me that he thought it had a good shot at 9.8. I took a chance on it. I held onto it for about 6 months trying to decide what to do with it. I considered pressing it to increase the chances of getting a 9.8, but based on what I saw going on with the spine, I thought it might actually decrease my chances so I submitted it unpressed. Here is the result. This along with the Hulk cover are the two hardest Miller Daredevil's to get in 9.8. I want to give a big thank you to Superworld for their fantastic grading and great deals. Really top notch stuff! DD #165 Front by dicjones, on Flickr]Daredevil 165 9.8[/url]

I've got several auctions on eBay for some new DC 52 titles. I'm completely surprised at this point, my suicide squad 1-5 lot has gotten the most interest. That's up against Action Comics 1-5, Detective Comics 1-5 and a bunch of others. What's the deal with that? I'm interested to see where they all end up this afternoon once the auctions have ended.

Thank you very much Eggs!!! My new favorite modern graded comic in my collection. This is a tough book in high grade, only one in 9.8 and three in 9.6 in the census...and I have one of them DSC_0001 by dicjones, on Flickr]Cherry Poptart #2[/url] DSC_0004 by dicjones, on Flickr]Cherry Poptart #2[/url]
