Kindness is a trait. Something that is a characteristic of a person's nature - which cannot be taught, learned or practiced. You don't work on being kind, you are either kind, or unkind. And yes, dickism is a trait of the internet - that's just the way it goes. Use the 'ignore' feature here and enjoy yourself. Balls, I agree with you most of the time. I don't on this one. You most certainly can become kinder, more compassionate, friendlier, more outgoing through hard work and conditioning, despite the fact that you may not be naturally any of the above.

Have I mentioned that I am insane for movie celebrity books? Got my Blade Runner book back today. Rutger Hauer (main bad guy replicant) Joseph Turkel (Dr. Tyrell who invented the replicants) and James Hong (Noodle Wagon scientist). Turkel inscribed it: More human than human - that's our motto. And James Hong inscribed it with one of his more famous lines: "I just do Eyes!!" Thank you Richie!!!

Not all 21 are double signed. Several are Fiona only. I am dying for a double signed SS Saga 1, but I am happy to let the market settle out. First to market sometimes produces high results. I think Joel was preselling them at very reasonable prices. I didn't know this series was going to grab me like it did.

When does #3 drop? This is the first new series I have anticipated reading since The Boys.

It's been a wild ride...no doubt about that! That is my 2nd Bleeding Cool story in a month. The last was the record setting Walking Dead 19 CGC SS! All I can say is call me crazy, but at the end of the day, as I have stated over and over... If it sells, great. If it doesn't, oh well. Nothing to lose. There is no such thing as bad publicity. XOXOXO Your friend, --Sean.

Learn to bid amounts like $253.87 and you would have maybe won. If all bidders herd on the same value, then the early bidder will win. You want to snipe, you need to be more creative in the bids you snipe with to override that effect. O RLY?

Easy there BUTM. The search function on the boards isn't exactly easy to use. 1) click search 2) type in "sparkle city" 3) set the date range to a year 4) click submit 5) read a wealth of info about sparkle city Which of those steps is the tricky one? (.5) Pry eyes away from FF's sig line .gif

Easy there BUTM. The search function on the boards isn't exactly easy to use. Unless your user name is BUTM. It's Blowie.

Ha-ha Veitech.

If you like them that much, my LCS has a couple.

Real.

A signature is a personal expression. It is not merely the letters that make up someone's name. Whether they are scribbles or beautiful works of art (like Steranko's) they are the visible manifestation of they way in which that person identifies who they are. They are as unique as snowflakes, and beautiful or ugly, they are awesome.

WANT.

Picked up about 40 more Walking Deads. Wide variety of issues from about 20 to the mid 70's. Will process and put them up in the next couple of days.

Is there any action on first prints of the trades?

The tentacle porn cover never fails to make me laugh.

He did about a hundred books in 2004 and has not done any since, much to my chagrin.

I love Charltons. I have been rounding up HG copies of #1 issues for years. I have also gotten a fair amount of the media tie-in books signed:

Yay! I hope he gets up to some serious no-gooding on this fine Friday. He hasn't threatened to have sex with anyone's mom yet in his current ID ... But the day is young. 2nd funniest Point Five post of all time.

If $30 is considered hot then I guess it was. I could buy #2 for under $30 just over 2 years ago and #1 averaged $50. That was a lot for a book that was less than a year old. Not a lot for a book that is 8 years old. But then...he was asking if it was hot out of the gate (which it was)...not if it was hot in 2010. As usual thanks for the narrow view. As Michael stated it was not hot. I was willing to concede the $30 but actually you missed the decimal point. "Narrow view" in that I actually answered the question rather than going off on a tangent...? "Well, since you asked how it was selling in 2003, let me tell you what I remember about 2010..." Very helpful. And...perhaps you weren't there at the time, or you just don't recall the climate, but Image books were not hot in 2003 the way they are now. Books weren't blowing up overnight simply because they had low print runs and "#1" on the cover. That book was immediately popular, and immediately hot. I started reading WD at either issue 7 or 8. Time has withered my memory, and I know I have posted about this before. #1s were either $25 or $30 at the time that issue came out. I thought anyone paying that for a seven month old comic was suffering early stage dementia. I thought the same thing when it passed the $100, $200, $500 and $1000 mark. It didn't seem "hot" like ToT is hot, it was just a #1 that had moved up a little, which was a rarity in 2004.

I've come to expect more from you. Wallow in my disappointment.

How would you know, though? In regards to the Fables #6 RRP, for instance, you said that you have 4 copies - I know at least two people who own more copies of that book than you, yet neither of them would be so bold as to proclaim that they "have the most extensive collection of this particular issue". There is always someone tougher than you, smarter than you, and possessing more copies of any given comic book than you.

And, Boom! goes the dynamite!
