Hi, just letting everyone know that we’ve created a podcast specifically dedicated to Foreign Comic collecting. It’s called ‘Foreign Comics Calling’. Here’s a link to our episode zero. It’s over an hour long and we talk about our statement of intent for future episodes along with a whole ball of Foreign comics stuff. We’d be honoured (we being myself, Matthew Roybal, Eric Miller and Stephen Bagley) if you give our ‘cast a listen. 
 

Thanks, everyone..

Ken.

All books that have been updated recently are showing a score of "0" in members sets. Please hold tight, I have the tech guys/gals working on it.

Thanks

 

Ahh! .. Okay, Cheers; Mollie

Hi, Mollie.

 

I've received my books back this morning and one book isn't valid for the slot .... can you fix this for me?

All the best,

Ken.

Thanks, Mollie. I can see it's been added now  .. do you think you could fix the score? .. it's a 9.4, so I think that's equals a score of '10' .. at the moment it bares a score of '0'. 

Cheers, Mollie.

I sent 4 x for Grading, plus 1 x Reholder .. turn around from shipping to receiving was less than a month .. and I'm in the U.K.  So, one happy camper here. << Just my on my own situation. I feel for everyone whose books are delayed for whatever reason.

Very cool. I really dig those Joe Jusko corner boxes... didn't realize prints of them had been made. Do you know if there are prints of the other ones (Hulk, Spidey, etc.)?

Cheers! Yeah, Dave; all the corner box variants are available as prints.

Only a small addition to the room today. My signed Joe Jusko Cap print came back from the framers. Apologies for the low-level light in the room.

Don't press, don't restore. 

Personally, I would avoid a signature as well.

Blue label is always better in my opinion. 

+1

There's precious few Key books that haven't got a signature on them. Personally, nothing makes my heart weep more than a thick-marker Stan Lee scrawl over a Key #1 SA book. Leave as is.

I thought about using the Kallax for a long time (lots of Omnibus lovers use Kallax to hold their books, so it's certainly strong enough) 

As I haven't got that many Omnibus's though .. I'm going to go for a Billy/Oxberg combination .. (perhaps something else for you to think about?)

I hope this helps ..

Thanks, Mollie; for the Captain America #25, 2nd Printing addition to the 2013 Set

What's the certification number?

 

No certification number yet .. this is raw. Does that mean that no one else has sent one in for Grading? Kewl! Mine'll be the first

Have we done this book yet? I can see we have graded the 2nd Printing of the 2005 Series, but not the 2013 series with the blue stripe across the bottom. Does you book contain a label error? 

Hi, Molly. Sorry, I've been off the grid for most of this week. My 2013 series book hasn't got a label error, it's definitely a 2nd printing and is indicated as such. Here's a scan of it ..

I had a very pleasant deal with Art .. 4 x Tales of Suspense books at a very reasonable price and packaged to the max to withstand the rigours of the postal system.

The whole transaction and experience was GREAT! I'd very happily work with Art again. A total Professional. Thanks, Art.

These landed today, courtesy of fellow boardie; Art (Mysterio) ..

Hi, Mollie.

Please can you add:

Captain America #25 (2nd Printing)

.. to the:

Captain America (2013) Set.

Thanks, Mollie

Really digging that Cap print too.  Great room!

Thank you, Sir! 

.. those blinds to the right of the pic are closed permanently .. I only opened them so I could get a decent light-filled shot with my cr@ppy camera 

First time I've ever bought from Patrick .. What a great guy! Everything was priced and packaged well. Super-Professional all the way. I sincerely hope to buy from him again soon.

Thanks, Patrick!

Ken.

.. just a test .. don't freak-out .. but the song seems apt anyway

Glad all is well. Those impact points were bizarre though, looks to me like somebody literally stepped on it!

I agree too. If it was dropped (and landed on its back or front) there would be no damage .. if dropped on any of its edges, the impact points would be .. well .. on its edges. It looks like this package was dropped .. landed on its back .. and (looking at the impact point) stepped on. Very happy everything worked out in the end.
