    PART 1 Not all are new this week but I just picked up a couple recently (Web of Spider-Man #1 from board member Bosco685 - A great guy to deal with) and the ASM #300 from Paradise Comics this weekend to complete my themed "Birth of Venom" collection. I don't have a scanner so apologies for the less than perfect pics. All CGC 9.6 and all white pages.

     

    Nick is a pretty great guy,nice score. :applause:

     

    Agreed. That is why I wanted to give Nick/Bosco685 a mention. Thank you also. I'm kinda happy with this little themed lot :grin:

    I trust very few people in this mad collecting world,and he's one of em.

    Me too :grin:

    If they were to use an able-bodied American actor to play Prof X in a wheelchair would that have the dedicated fans dancing a jig of dislike?
    I don't care what actor they get,just as long as they look & act the part of the character 2c

     

    Do they have to wear the spandex costumes?

     

    What if they looked exactly as their comic book originals but were terrible actors?

    I think they should use muted colors for the costumes (like First Class)

     

    Then the actors need to do their best to portray the characters faithfully as possible (no matter how terrible they are)

     

    But what is your preference? They look the same but aren't the best actors or they look different and are the best actors around?

    I would pick the best actors even though they look different.

    I am REALLY interested to see where they go with this. :popcorn:

     

    I am as well - it's dangerously and precariously close to Spiderman 3 in terms of overloading the story with too many characters. However, I have faith that Fox is going to be demanding Marvel-levels of quality from their films - so the new X film I think may bring back the errant franchise back from the brink.

     

    I am cautiously optimistic at this point.

    I do my best to refrain from being either optimistic or pessimistic until I actually see it. That way, if it's bad then it doesn't hit you too hard and if it's good then it's a nice surprise. I certainly pay no attention to all the armchair critics who pan a film before they've seen it.

     

    Fingers crossed for a good one, loved First Class.

     

    No - start complaining now, loudly and frequently, years before the movie comes out.

     

    Isn't that what the internet is for? Complaining, shopping and porn?

    Pretty much lol

    Oh goodness...Prof X does not have an English accent :facepalm:

    Stop being so darn picky :sumo:

    I agree, I'm a lot more interested in whether an actor can portray the essence of a character than if the accent is wrong or if Wolverine is taller than he was in the comics or if Thor isn't wearing a winged helmet.

    (thumbs u

     

    Patrick Stewart actually takes the edge off of Professor X's prissy pants, know-it-all, stuck up attitude in the comics. I like his on-screen portrayal.

    Me too :)

    Sorry about the dodgy photo, but my scanner only produces really blurry scans of cgc comics.

    Any recommendations on a decent scanner would be appreciated.
