  1. Those are sweet. I saw those listed on eBay but forgot about them cause of the game. Congrads.
  2. Got this in the mail on Saturday. Thanks to Sean for making it happen!
  3. Kudos to Sean (NYComics) for getting these signed for me!
  4. Just got these in from eBay.... Amazing Spider-Man #40 Amazing Spider-Man #44 Amazing Spider-Man #98 By the way, I've been trying to look this up online but with little help. What is the colored bar at the top of the very edge of the pages stand for. One site I found said that different colored bars meant how long the book was to stay at the newsstand for. What if the book doesn't have a colored bar on it? The AMS #40 has a cyan bar but #44 and #98 don't have one. The same website said that no bar meant that it was a direct edition only, not direct and newsstand. Can anyone help me out?
  5. Very true. After re-reading my last post, I forgot to mention is that Finch asked the kid to come up to the front of the line and I didn't have a problem with it. Wrong wording on my part, sorry. I wasn't trying to say that if you see a kid in line to tell him to get in line ahead of you. That's not fair to the other people in line. If the artists asked the kid to move to the front of the line, try not to make a big deal over it. That's all.
  6. This is definitely a great thread for those who have never done the SS thing before like me. Some people do not realize that artists are doing something that they love for other people. They are not machines to take advantage of with 10+ sketches and 50 signatures. That's just unrealistic. If they are there all weekend, then don't hit them all at once. You can always go back later. I was in line to get a sketch and signature from Finch at last year's Baltimore con. You know, one signature and one head sketch. Done. There was s couple people in line with huge stacks of, I would have to guess, everything that Finch had ever done to be signed. That's just not right, to the artist expecting him to sign every book and to the people behind you who have been waiting a long time. If you've ever been in a line to get anything from him, you know how long the lines usually are. I jumped in line around lunch time when it was not so bad. Here's a tip that I used last year. If you're next up to get something done and you see a little kid who has been waiting in line for a long time, let him go ahead of you. The kid and parent will be very appreciative and the artist will see that you're a nice guy. Artists love doing things for kids so its always a nice break for them.
