  1. The problem with Wizard wasn't that it sometimes pointed to overlooked classic comics or first appearances from years earlier that might be important in the future. Wizard's problem was saying that books which still had wet ink were already the greatest thing since last month the first appearances from Silver Age keys. It makes sense that artists, writers, and publishers would agree that what they're creating is the greatest new thing available today, but there's definitely a problem when definite classic issues cost $1,000 and books printed last week are supposedly also worth $1,000. It's not like they're using different currencies. We were laughing at this the other day. Wizard, December 2000. "Hot 10 comics"
  2. TCBF Link This has been a popular topic... Who is your favorite inker, and why? Here's a list of someone else's opinions to get you started. THE 20 GREATEST INKERS OF AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS
  3. Weird Terror #7 From the story 'Turnabout.' If you want to read this story, I found a source here: The Evil Ones! / Turnabout
  4. I have a backlog of comic-related stuff coming up.
  5. Thanks! I've been exploring recipes. It looks pretty easy. A lot of the recipes just use milk, possibly cream, vinegar and salt. I'll have to do a bit more research. Here's a good article. I especially like the phrase "curd-loving cheese crafters." Cottage cheese gets a high-end, artisanal makeover
  6. Wow...I was amazed at how thick it turned out - about the consistency of cream cheese. Very tasty too! You could easily spread this on toast. 2 Qts of yogurt yielded the small amount of Greek yogurt you see here. I left a 1 Qt measuring cup in the photo for comparison.
  7. Alright...so...comics or yogurt, comics or yogurt? I think I'll start with a yogurt update and get that out of the way. I found out that the books are correct, you can only clone your yogurt starter culture once. I tried doing it twice, and the the resultant batch came out with about 30% whey and definitely not as tangy as the prior batches. So, instead of tossing it, I decided to make Greek Yogurt with it. This is a process where the yogurt is placed in a linen bag and hung overnight to concentrate the yogurt. The whey drips out into a bowl. It's still hanging as I write this, so I'll take some photos and post them in a bit.
  8. I dry mounted with a seal once. You should have seen the mess.........oh wait, different topic. My bad
  9. Blowie...you better tell them how to use this or they'll be poking holes in their melted wax covered books. PS - My dry mount press has a thermocouple built right into the heating element. The digital thermometer is useful to calibrate the thermocouple as well as ensuring temperature uniformity across the platen.
  10. My journal is back online. Ditch Fahrenheit's Journal
  11. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand...we're back online. Thanks Arch!
  12. ooooo...I like that. Kinda like The Batman...only cooler and slightly more ominous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rig3tgyYiAM PS - I prefer this video. That was my 20,001st post. Somehow I'm back to 17,269. I was robbed.
  13. ooooo...I like that. Kinda like The Batman...only cooler and slightly more ominous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rig3tgyYiAM We were just discussing Elton and how he wasn't in the band and was actually just faking it in the T-Rex video. Guess who actually DID play the keys on it? Rick Wakeman! I know right?!
  14. The Ditch is back! ooooo...I like that. Kinda like The Batman...only cooler and slightly more ominous. Hi Roy! How's it hangin'? Me? Left trouser leg...feels weird on the other side.
  15. I can only do it on my phone. I am sure Blowie will be along shortly to demean...err...help you out. It works! Thanks Blowie.
  16. You WISH you had a poop map app like I do. Although, in your neck of the woods I'm sure poop desiccates before it hits the ground...possibly even igniting.
  17. Is the phone any faster...or does it still take about 30 seconds between clicks around here.
  18. Oh...you want some of this TOO Chief? (flexing my guns) Well...enjoy your day. Also...GSABOY.
  19. Any time between Lunch #1 and Lunch #2 works for me...PAL And bring those Ghetto Keys of yours so I can shove them up your long box.
