  1. Finally got these back after a long wait--many thanks to fingerink for these books: Wolverine Art Appreciation Len Wein, Danny Miki, and Joe Quesada: Wolverine v3, 66 Steve McNiven, Morry Hollowell, Dexter Vines, and Joe Quesada. Notice how Len Wein's sig is not noted even though it is right above the Hulk's head:

  5. No one knows Nick Grimes? That was Rick's dog name--which is the real answer to that question a while back
  6. Now, without further ado... thank you a ton to JonJesper for this very sweet New Mutants 98 9.8 signed and sketched by Rob Liefield. Beautiful book.
  7. Just got my WD 1 back today with grade bump and Moore's signature to compliment Kirkman's.
  8. Just got these beauties today thanks to pirate. This book got a bump in grade--also, two snazzy signatures from Kirkman and Moore. A simple David Mack signature.
  9. This book right there is the book Chris Claremont gave me the biggest issue about. He got mad at me for having him sign over the art work. Sorry about all the trouble. I was wondering which book set Chris Claremont off. If it's any consolation I love the book, plus the trouble you went it through makes it extra special considering how he is about his signature placement. Really, I can't thank you enoug for this great book.
  10. Hey Kathyrn, Thanks for the hello and one right back at ya . That awesome book you speak of is WD 5, 9.4 (thumbs u . I just finished my very own run of WD raws and am currently trying to slab the series. So far I got 1 SS (9.8), 2 (9.8), 5 (9.4), and 50 variant (9.4). I got a long way to go. I'm still new to the chatroom and am learning. Wow, sounds like you have some great books. Post some pictures if you feel like it. I'm jealous of that #2 9.8, I have a 9.6 but eventually I'd like to upgrade that one. I can't keep a lady waiting, so here's my WD 2 9.8--the rest I'll do later.
  11. I've been meaning to post these up and here they are: Image United Preview. It's not a 10 or 9.9, but I love my 9.8. Hero Comics 1 Signed by JG Roshell, J. Scott Campbell, Laura Martin, Matt Wagner, Arthur Adams, David Lloyd, Bill Willingham, Jim McLauchlin, Charles Novinskie, and Kaare Andrews with a Spidey sketch.
  12. Just got these from the Virginia Comic Con. Many, many thanks to Chris from ffcomics. James Kuhoric--Dead Irons 1 Chris Claremont--X-Men: Sword of the Braddocks The only SS on the census. Chris Claremont--X-Men 248 This book went out a 9.8, but came back a 9.6 but it did go from OW/W to W pages

As far as my camera goes, I just cannot get the right angle. But as soon as I can figure out something I will post ASAP.
  14. please refrain from putting down board members in the walking dead post. i also love walking dead, but unlike you, i have every 2nd print, including issue #2's 2nd print. some people say it's silly for grown men and women to buy/read/collect comic books in the first place. what would you say to them? I don't think he was putting anybody down. I think it's silly to vault them away in plastic containers never to be read, or pay a huge premium because a little slip of paper with "9.8" was stuffed inside along with it, but I'm still here to talk about comics and not judge what other people do with theirs he probably meant nothing, but it doesn't change what he typed. my buying of 2nd prints is neither "silly," nor "screwy" as his emoticon suggests. feel free to type whatever you want, but be ready to deal with board members calling you out if they don't agree with what you said. i don't call anybody silly, nor do i call anyone's collecting habits silly. p.s. your last line is EXACTLY what i'm talking about.".....not judge what other people do with theirs." p.p.s. i don't wanna make this seem like some huge deal, but my point stands. I see your point and as a completionist who buys variants etc of all the books I love and collect and can empathise when people say things like he did. But in all honesty I didn't take offense at this time as I really did not feel a bad vibe in what he posted. I may be wrong that but I didn't read it that way This person has it on the money--I was not being mean with my comment. I was trying to be funny. I would never be cruel to any WD fan. I even made fun of myself. I own several preview issues and will probably buy more. I just wanted to be silly and if anyone got hurt I will tone done the humor. BTW, I do own some 2nd prints. humor can be hard to show on the internet sometimes. i have a tendency to include when i'm teasing, joking, as i've had times when i was joking and things were taken wrong. anyways, no harm done. Thank you for the tips.

  17. I'm guilty of owning a few WD Preview issues, but it's most because I love this series so such that I want to own all books related to WD...maybe not the 2nd prints--that's just too silly.
  18. Hey everyone, I have a question for the Yellow Label crowd, and others if they wish to join in, I just hope that no one has asked this question before. I have some nice blue and yellow 9.8 slabs which I want to get get signed--mostly MAs and some CAs . The only thing which bothers me is that my books can come back a grade lower; although they can come back higher as well--which is a plus. Getting that certain signature by "so and so" is worth it as a fan of "so and so," but there is that risk. So I ask: Is it worth sacrificing a grade for a signature?
  19. I want in on the club as well. I had a WD 1 SS 9.6 with Kirkman's sig. I sent it out to get Moore's sig and now it's coming back a 9.8. As soon as I get it I will post a pic of it.
  20. I'm happy owning the preview of WD, yet, alas, maybe I should've looked around for cheaper prices--I just saw the book and wanted it and had to have it. Now I own it.
  21. I just bought the issue of Agents--a raw copy--with the preview of WD for a staggering 30.00! Now, I feel like I paid too much. I love WD, so as a huge fan is it wise to own this book?
  22. A Perfect 10! That is so cool. I only have a lousy 9.8.
