Illustrious

Just. A. Matter. Of. Time. (thumbs u

I still think Sword of Azrael #1 gets overlooked, the character was huge in the early 90's and Knightfall is one of the most well known story in comics (IMO). Hell, he was Batman for a while, I think that's a pretty big deal!

I guess people will stop speculating on NM #87 now.

My current copy I picked up last week:

I saw the film today, and I wasn't expecting anything great, but I was pleasantly surprised. I can honestly say that for the first time in a long time I'm excited about the X-Men again. I was also expecting Quicksilver to be a dud based on the pre-movie pics, but he was far and away the best character in the movie in my opinion.

Agreed. Buttcheeks and words are not nearly as damaging to the psyche as bullets and violence.

No kidding. But blame Marvel for fumbling that ball. They got the market all hopped up about acquiring this character, and then it became a strange ride integrating her into the Marvel Universe. But it will be interesting over the next few years what they do with her. Or maybe a yawnfest if they just bury her. I think she still might have a good future, she's been retconned into being the half-sister of Thor and Loki, so if they throw her in that already complicated family dynamic, it could be interesting.

My copy got a little facelift:

That has a PERFECT wrap too.

I think it was something along the lines of "crawling out the mists."

Life Model Decoys

I saw it last night. It wasn't as bad as I was anticipating going in, but it's no where near the quality of the Disney/Marvel movies. I keep reading in interviews a lot of scenes that filled in more character development was cut, so maybe the BluRay will have all those available to plug back in. I don't like the fact that Oscorp is the source of Spider-Man's entire rogues gallery now though.

After this episode I still don't see why Ward is so loyal to Garrett, he's treated him like mess every since they met.

How old are you?

Captain Marvel or Captain Mar-vell?

I was following that as well. Last week, two copies of #1 sold for $384 and $360, respectively. Yep, Illustrious talked me out of my copy for peanuts (and acted surprised I was asking that much) . . . In my defense though, it was a 9.4 copy, not a 9.8.

I got these signed 2nd and 3rd prints from the "Toitle Pedigree" a month back and a mint promo CD copy of the "Turtle Power" single from 1990 off the 'bay late last year.

Yes, it's actually a nice white paged coverless copy with a Fedoraman cover. (thumbs u
