  1. Just saw the movie and I really liked it a lot. Perfect, no, but I really liked it. To me the movie simply didn't know how to wrap itself up correctly (in a neat little bow). I was riveted for the first 3/4 of the movie and then things got a little wonky. The movie does not deserve the bad reviews it seems to be getting. I took my step daughter and her boyfriend and they both liked it a lot too. One more thing. Holly Hunter may have had the best moment of acting in the whole movie. She was superb.
  2. Look out Stan.... Sith Lord about to strike.
  3. Here's my 4.0. I really think mine is undergraded too (although it has a faint stain at the bottom which I've been told is the reason it graded low). When Matt N pressed mine he told me the page quality was bright & outstanding so I thought I would get "White" pages, and I didn't get that either. I've seen many 4.0s that don't even come close to these 2.
  4. How long ago was this one graded? CGC must have been in one of their strictest times, because this looks like a 5.0 to me.
  5. The back cover photo makes the book look pretty solid. But it looks like the front cover pic was shot in the dark by candlelight. Seems like an odd or calculated choice. At $60k with front cover fuzzy? Wow Will this go higher than $60,000? My goodness, is this the new normal or an outlier? Is this because Spiderman is in the Civil War movie? I have to admit the comic looks really nice so maybe an upgrade will happen.
  6. Where's the subscription crease you talked about. That comic looks amazing front and back. How is this a 4.0??? You may need to resub this comic. So pretty.
  7. Ghastly do you have time to post a close-up of just the AF15? It really looks nice.... maybe the nicest 4.0 I've ever seen. Sometimes I scratch my head at the grading I see.
  8. Just finished episode 8. At the end shouted "Oh " and started fist pumping the air. This series is really paced out well.
  9. 6 episodes in. I LOVE Punisher. I LOVE Electra. Nice pacing & story telling so far. OK..... I'm diving in to episode 7.
  10. I just PM'd Knightsofold, but just in case anyone else has a cover...... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Captain-America-Comics-1-Coverless-w-HQ-Reproduction-Cover-1st-Appearance-/222016728261?hash=item33b13a6cc5:g:RA4AAOSwXshWtg8k
  11. Can we see a close up of that 5.0? If the tape pull is what pulled it down to 5.0 then i'm assuming the rest of it must be in amazing condition.
  12. If someone knows how to capture the screenshot of the moment he makes the catch, I swear there is a slight greenish glow within the dark shadow of his hand.
  13. Kryptonite grenade? Is it just me or am I seeing a hint of green in Superman's hand after he makes the catch?
  14. The Voldemort 9.2 only went for $18,5k on CL. That's a really soft price (or maybe CBCS grades really soft). Or maybe the St110 bubble has burst and prices are coming back down? Whoever sold the 9.0 for $23,5k really did a great job of selling at the perfect time.
  15. Anyone ever seen one of these? I just picked it up.
  16. One of the best looking 1.5s I've ever seen. I like that Stan's sig is a little bit different on this one.
  17. Awesome. it's low grade but present really well. Congrats
  18. What did it sell for last year? It'll be interesting to see what it goes for in the V holder. If CBCS doesn't start getting higher prices realized for their grading then I would think they would be losing business left and right soon.
  19. Strange Tales 180. 1st appearance of Gamora. I don't like this cover but I love Gamora http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/8/81/Strange_Tales_Vol_1_180.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20051206013053
  20. MC1??? It's easily one of my favorite covers. It's gorgeous. Great colors too
  21. Back in 1952 Doomsday was still wearing the tattered Green jumpsuit http://www.comics.org/issue/10001/cover/4/
  22. I was waiting for that. It would have been great.
  23. My wife and I finished the series last night. I wouldn't say that we hated it, but just felt it was... . It had a few good moments, but over all it was fairly boring and poorly written/acted. I thought there was NO chemistry between Jessica and Luke. I'm really worried about the Luke Cage series because I thought he was a very weak character. I think they could have edited out 90% of the weird neighbor lady. Talk about annoying! She added nothing to the show. The final scene with Kilgrave's dad was eye-rolling bad. I agree with many people who think it would have played better as a 7 or 8 episode series. The pacing simply felt off at 13 episodes.
