Nice grab.  Always loved this cover and have been intrigued about tracking down an affordable copy...

Have ya seen the movie "Upgrade"?

I have not, but it looks great and I have it saved in iTunes as something on my wish list for rental. Over on the Birth. Movies. Death. site I know a lot of users have been raving about it as a top film from last year, comparing it directly to Venom as the movie Venom really should have been.

On a related note, if you like Logan Marshall-Green in the lead role there - or if you are a fan of suspense thrillers in general - do yourself a favor and go watch The Invitation, which I believe is still available on Netflix. An excruciatingly intense slow-burn of a film that explodes in its final act - one of my favorite movies, period, of the last few years. Great, great, great.

A colleague at work lent me Image's Ancestor trade. Not sure if any of you have heard of it - I certainly hadn't.

Anyway, obviously a very recent title, but despite a start I really got into (a future where people have their brains connected to something called "The Service" that essentially helps provide all the guidance and programming to help them navigate life; a messiah-like tech leader who brings the protagonist to his secluded compound), it takes an absolutely wonky hard left turn that left me essentially laughing in disbelief as I was reading the final issue and the climactic resolution.

Truly a "WTF!!!" moment in comics reading where the level of fantasy envisioned just goes beyond anything I think you could reasonably choose to accept.

I'm expecting to set up a table for the first time at a small, local con in March.

Where and when is this show?  See you're based in Gatineau - could be interested in coming to check it out and say hi if timing works.

Wise choice. Thanks!

That was what I was hoping was a sleeper pick of mine some 30 odd picks from now. Guess not.

Oh Captain my Captain.

I choose #56

My donation went in the Top 15! Honored it was valued that high by someone. Hope you enjoy!

Under 50 picks to go before I'm up! 

56... I guess it was beginner’s luck when I finished Top 10 in my first go-round a few years back; think it’s been 50+ ever since, but oh well. Still fun and still hopeful to get something that’s a gem to me but overlooked by 55 other boardies!

Daughter #1 bought the statue, I told her where to get it and the hours of the store et al. The glasses are from wifey, she promises to hand wash them if I use them as I never use theones Ihave on display in my comic room. The tee shirt is from my mother-in-law, she gave me one last year and I told her to get me another and wifey provided her with choices. She won't get me any with barely dressed ladies so this year was Death Dealer and last year the sled being pulled by polar bears.

It has been years and years since I got so many gifts that I actually like and asked for directly. Dey done good!!!

For some reason I always thought @HollyJollyOne's avatar was that exact Frazetta image, as incongruous as that would have been with the season.
