The new MK book has a cover. http://marvel.com/comic_books/issue/34015/moon_knight_2010_1 Not sure what's up with the Wolvie right hand, Spidey left and Cap shield.. What is Bendis doing.. ??!?!?

Hope you didn't pay more than cover price for it, these are still available from the publisher for $5 : http://twomorrows.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=486 nice! Order placed.

Some of my recent additions from last month: A Slobodian copy in ~9.2 Double Cover! in 9.4ish And some 9.2-9.6 Western Penn issues. and finally, the coup de grace

I just submitted a Slobodian Pedigree but was disappointed to find out that Slobodian isn't recognized by CGC.

Ahh.. I was hoping he meant there was some cool 3rd party tool that notified you whenever something you are searching for is listed, etc.. Oh well...

I recently bought a handful of raw Western Penn Miller Daredevil books. They each came with a COA, although it was just a print out. No signature, number, etc.

very nice! I've got my eye on this current auction... likely will quickly be out of my price range..

What's an Ebay agent?

A/S/L?

!

Indeed.

FWIW, O'Barr will be at the Dallas Comic Con on May 21st/22nd, as will a CGC rep... http://www.scifiexpo.com/DCC/dcc.html

Grail upgrade added this week.

Get yours now, only $20!

As a matter of fact....... . I set up at a local show today, managed to scrounge up a few 9.4-9.8 Stevens books; around 10 or so. Will be for sale soon, maybe here, maybe C2E2. We'll see.

Since it's mine now thanks to Rich! Lone top census.

edit: Doh, I see it's already in your list.. .. Man, can't beat you to anything! What about this Tron variant?!? http://cgi.ebay.com/SECRET-AVENGERS-7-TRON-VARIANT-FEATURING-MOON-KNIGHT-/380311062407?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588c4e4787

Seen this, Whisp? http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4563454Post4563467 Check out the back cover.

Where both of those scans made with the same scanner? The top scan (the Air Boy book) looks spectacular and that is what I am used to with an Epson scanner. The bottom scan is a bit blurry. The Kinko's that I used to scan my books at used Epson scanners. The only thing that I found with them was that tanning and foxing was not well represented...it was a little too dark compared to how the book actually looked in hand but the rest of the books looked terrific. same scanner, but the DD was down sized from its original scan size at 300dpi to fit in a forum post a long time ago.. That will cause blurriness every time...

Forgot to mention that the real issue is peoples monitors. That vast majority of people have the color and temps of their monitors so far out of whack that it doesn't really matter how good your scan is.

I have an Epson gt-20000 that scans a up to 11.7x17" documents. Not cheap but you can pick them up on new egg on occasion for $800. Quality costs. Period. And yes , it works fine with win7 via USB and has rj45 for network scanning.. http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Product.do?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&sku=B11B195011 I tend to scan just above 72 dpi for the reasons mentioned previously, and also being in the professional art field (making video games) for the last 15 years, I've sort of learned to fight the urge and to leave scans as is withou much color correction or mucking with the scanner settings. A good scanner setup properly will give an accurate and vibrant image as seen below or in my sig line; all out of the box default settings.. Another tip is to scan with the top open. The dark background (as opposed to the white when its closed) can often enhance the contrast on tougher images...

You probably already have them, but there's a few of the Hulk! magazine issues with the MK stories in the back for sale in this thread.... http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4521514&nt=3&fpart=1

Many thanks to Aggiez for not only answering my WTB thread but also dipping into his collection to part with some Dave Stevens books!
