So ive read some of the last 28 pages, and still dont know.... Are all the newly broken images (from the update) in my Okajima thread in GA just going to stay broken and i should just give up hope?

OK for no good reason I went down the rabbit hole of Sheena, and saw mention of her first appearance being in the british magazine/tabloid "Wags" issue #46. But I cant find ANY visual digital evidence of it, save for it's mention in the GCD and a small image I found of the page with Sheena's debut. (so small I can barely read some of the text!) Has anyone actually seen, held, or owned a copy of Wags #46? I imagine a LOT of the copies got consumed during the paper drives of WWII over in the UK, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is massively scarce, or even just plan impossible to find. There's never even been a sale (as far as I can find) over on Heritage...

Spontaneous purchase. BORK! BORK! BORK! Seemed like a fair price when i got it on Amazon ($30) for a Diamond Select muppet. One of my faves.

was in a thread about this on facebook. Seller is pitching multiple pictures pulled from the internet as "his" books...

Santa delivered!

yep, and to investors more shows means more merchandising, more international distribution, more licensing....

1. seasons are shorter 2. this was the investor call, so it's really just there to show how Disney is leveraging it's IP rights (I know it's turned into a bit of PR, but it's still primarily an investors call) 3. Not every concept makes it to the screen, so it's better to have extra irons in the fire. 4. a lot of the stuff presented will be released on their streaming platform, which is new and content creation is king, and their platform is revenue generating, so to investors (the primary audience) they're interested in seeing content creation plans.

man this week is a mess.. I have packages coming from multiple ebay sellers and DCBS and while slow is totally understandable... all three are in a bit of limbo, which is weird. West Virginia, California and Illinois all three scanned and are being processed at their drop off point, but havent shown any movement since.. Earliest got dropped off on the 3rd, most recent on the 7th. Im guessing they're going thru the system and just not getting scanned along the way anymore? Now its scan it when it goes in the system and scan it when it comes out? What a joke.

Keep talking like that and I'll replaced Barks with Hergé, whose Tin Tin was an obvious massive influence on Barks storytelling and artistry.

Lots of good answers but i have the correct list, everyone else can stop (im kiddjng, its all somewhat subjective) 1. Jack Kirby 2. Osamu Tezuka, since you didnt specify American comics it makes since to include the godfather of manga. 3. Moebius. The greatest artist of Bande Dessinée, same logic of inclusion as Tezuka. 4. Carl Barks. Elevated the "funnies" of animal comics to levels never thought.

I shipped this morning. If you're a Hanukkah person rather than a Christmas person, dont feel like you have to wait to open

2021 goals: Buy things for under GPA. Sell things for over GPA. thought I'd try something new...

I've been informed that he did get a vacation for his unboardly behavior.. Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

and wow, I had moved on from the IH141 fiasco so I didnt read agamoto's final few posts, but Im pretty sure homophobic slurs dont fly here... Im not gonna quote his whole 18 point rant, but when you end like this you invalidate everything you said...

the trade versions are still affordable and decent, but man I want those HCs back...

1. I usually check "take it"s vs the PL/HOS. Maybe after a few takes in my sales thread, or at the end of the day. If someone on the PL posted a take, I would PM them and say that due to PL status I wont be honoring the "take" and ask them to edit their post to remove the take. I would also post that "Book X is still available" (in case they arent going to go back and edit their take post). 2. If I see someone on my personal no sale list (and there are like 3 people on my list) post a take, I'd PM them that per my rules I reserve the right to not do business with some people, and they are one of those people. I'd then do the the same steps as in #1 as far as clarification and editing of posts. 3. If Im the buyer and post a take in a sales thread, I'm obligated to buy. I'm also responsible for knowing who Im engaging in business with. I dont always check before buying, but if I found myself having posted a "take it" on a PL sales thread, Id PM the guy and say something about how Im not comfortable completing a transaction with someone who has open issues on the PL, but once they're resolved Im happy to buy the book in question. If he holds me to the transaction then I just be careful using paypal, but this hasnt happened yet, cause any time a PL person posts a sales thread (which I can only remember happening once) the boardies swarmed on him like flies on honey and ate him alive before he could do more than post a couple books and then sulk away in shame.

Yep, the point of collected editions is to have something readable, so keep the version that is readable (has the right pages). on a related note, I still kick myself for selling my Plague of Frogs HCs years ago, someday I'll find replacement copies of Vol 3 and 4...

i think this is a great idea and would facilitate people getting a heads up when something is listed. It's a little like the WTB sub-forum (and maybe that's where it should live), but not limited to one person saying what they want. It would take some oversight potentially, since people are want to post rather than search (so more than the average number of mod requests to consolidative threads). So we'll get lots of people starting a AF15 Tag thread, rather than search for the existing tag thread and posting in it. Are you proposing someone would be responsible with consolidating and updating a master list for a particular tag (like someone comes by every now and then and adds the new posts to the overall post of names of people looking for "AF15" or would it just be a thread of people posting in a particular sub-thread, and the onus would be on the seller to compile the names from the thread to tag in his or her sales thread?

These. Are. GREAT.

Exactly!

Take it per PM. This has bee my favorite Conan cover for ages, makes me think those old D&D book covers from the 70s and 80s. Yay!

Im in. Will build a mystery box of Collected editions that will make your mailman beg for mercy. Domestic only cause its gonna be heavy.

I wondered the same thing... CGC QA strikes again!

excellent point! Not just any WWII, SCHOMBURG WWII.
