Was a massive show, but only about 10 comic dealers, with which only about three were worth looking at in my opinion.

Why is it even called comic con, cosplay con or something :-(

Hi, thanks, don't see many around though for some reason.

Is this a scarce issue? Can't seem to see any on ebay or anywhere else,

thanks for any info herc

this one should be added to your blocked bidder list.

username lcheah2012   he is a fraudster, was trying haggle with my friend for ages on a MSE 15 and when my friend said he would not give any discount he used the buy it now.

Luckily my friend sent the item tracked and signed and a couple of weeks later, he said he did not get the comic and wanted his money back. My friend checked tracking, saw the details and that he had signed for it, yeah stupid person. My friend spoke with ebay, they said wait until he opens a claim, which he then did, ebay closed it quickly, he is under supposedly under ebay investigation. My friend told him he was committing fraud (or trying to) her replied saying, what are you, some sort of lawyer or something, my friend said he would tell as many people as possible to warn others of his tactic.

My friend just told me it's going to be The Ultimate Taskmaster, the one that has the same mask as Crossbones, lol, guess they'll save a few bucks on props there then! Also, he has different powers, a bit more like absorbing man, lol, I give up with these disney films.

I remember all the moaning about Iron Fist being whitewashed, was so annoying. I remember them even asking the asian actress if she was upset about the fact that Iron Fist was not asian as well.

I was not looking for it, it was everywhere when the show first came about, I was talking about this with some friends that if they wanted an asian martial artist, they have Shang Chai, no need to change IF.

My problem with modern comics, with few a exceptions is:

Continuity, some new writers come along, know nothing bout previous stories and just try to make the characters their own with not a care about the history of the character.

Also, a lot of the art is appalling. You get all these pretty covers, variants, then you flick inside and it's terrible. At that point, I can't even be bothered to read it.

Don't know why the other company were a witness, the grading in all the slabs of all companies are subjective and sometimes differ when even sending it back to the same company.

I agree with Heritage, saying that the books should have their own unique label, so that buyers know that it is not just restoration and pretty much a recreation when there's so much being done.

They should have just accepted their own special label for their books that had this much done to them.

Hi guys, never really used this before, but thought I would try it to see, but it does not seem to be working, not sure if this is just on my end or not, but tried multiple slabs and none of them are coming up, just says no results found?

That Superman head almost looks like Frankenstein's Monster.

PGX 9.4

That's mean, PGX are not that bad, it would most probably get a PGX 5.0.

user bought FF 45, payment went into pending, then 5 days alter buyer canceled it and asked me to cancel order, maybe he was hoping I would post it out while it was pending?

A friend of mine is doing a campaign for a comic he is writing, not sure if this is allowed here, remove if it's not.

He has shown me some really great pages, covers, and help, support would be great.

RIP Stan, a legend, he helped get comics to where they are today. I loved his intro's on the Spider-Man cartoons, his distinct voice made it so much more enjoyable.

looks like a very nice 7.0 on the 44 ;-)

It has been trimmed, pieces added, reinforced, how is this a conserved label and not a restored label? 

I just spoke with GPA, very nice people, they enquired about it with paypal and paypal confirmed to them what I said here. 

I just don't get why it matters to paypal as long as they get their cut, guess they want to make a bit more out of you. If I had dollars in paypal, I used to be able to pay those dollars straight into my bank account and let the bank do the conversion, which was current,  but paypal wont let you do that now either, they have to convert it before hand for you, lol, I think last time, out of $2000, they made roughly an extra £60 out of me at the rate they used :-( and I think it's to do with this, it's a way to make that little bit extra out of people.

Just had an interesting conversation with Paypal. I was doing the monthly subscription with GPA, but thought I would change it to the yearly one and save a few pennies.

But, every time I went to pay, it would not let me, even though I had lots of funds in my paypal, dollars and pounds. So I phoned paypal and they said as it's the first of a yearly subscription, they don't want me to use my balance of $'s or £'s they want me to use my debit or credit card and then next year I can use my balance if I desire!

WTF, this really shocked and annoyed me, just an absolute joke, the only reason they want me to do that, is so they can use my card and charge me their crazy rates converting £'s into $'s, I think it was almost £100 for $119, reason i have dollars in my account is for instances like this to avoid their horrible rates.

Anyone else had this same problem?

Thanks Chaykin, will have a read of that later ;-)

Be good to know when it's from, does not look like a 70's comic to me though. Some writer comes along and obviously read MTU 1 and decided that was her, as the marvel universe index's from early 80's say her first appearance was Marvel Premiere 21.

Marvel Premiere 21 makes more sense to me, kung fu fighting, tough woman, not some extra who barely has a few lines in MTU 1.

what the hell is that from, some 90's book,

Marvel Team Up 1 is not the first Misty Knight, there is a black girl with an afro, who looks pretty, but it's not Misty, she would not be some victim to muggers.

Misty Knight's 1st appearance is Marvel Premiere 21, where she is a tough martial artist, not some random victim ;-)

The pence ones are going up a lot lately, I've seen a big increase of sales on sites like Heritage and Comiclink.

Pence copies span from the 1960's through to the early 1980's, but these Canadian price variants seem to be just 1980's books?
