The First Avenger

Yes, he did say that. Maybe he used the finder's fee to purchase a new one?

So excited.

They may be wanting to hold them for a movie or Netflix down the line. That's my thoughts. Saving them for a Netflix series.

So they first offered him $100m for the two films. He then says he would cut his wrists before playing Bond again and now he gets offered $150m? I wish I had those negotiation skills.

A lot of us also wish we had access to as much advice as Gabe is getting, or had listened to, when we were younger. If he put forth the effort and energy towards his life that he does in finding deals then maybe he would be in a better spot in life and in a position to flip books and games.

I work as a courier, the company term is a Field Services Technician, for a water testing lab. I drive around the Eastern and Northern part of Kentucky, going to different drinking water plants and waste water plants that contract us out to do their testing. My job consists of Those are real good goals to have, Gabe, they really are. You also need to add Don't buy anymore comics for flipping, no matter the cost Don't buy anymore games for flipping, no matter the cost You DO have the power to end the cycle but the way you are going you won't. People here are trying to direct you towards ending it but you keep veering yourself around and around in the cycle. Don't buy stuff to flip. No matter if it is $1, don't look for deals, focus all that deal searching on getting a better paying job and helping yourself. Following this hope, the purpose that you created this thread for, isn't what you need to do. This thread isn't about buying and selling a million dollar comic anymore. It is about setting you on the path of success in life. Those are big things to think about and I don't know my path yet and equally important is proving to myself that I can succeed at something with effort. Yes, proving to yourself that you can succeed at something is good but you are going about it wrong. Succeeding at life is FAR more important than flipping comics and games. You need to work your way up to a good job and get a place of your own first. Those things are way more important even if you don't think they are. Getting a job that pays well and being out on your own is a huge confidence booster. Then later, after you are settled down and successful, you can start flipping books as a hobby. That way you can continue to learn using your extra money and maybe then you can turn it into a "career" or at least a side job. It really does need to be on the back burner now though. You need to learn how to manage your priorities. Stop buying books, no matter how good of a deal and put all of that energy into finding a better job or getting a second job.

I hope the knock it out of the part this season and get people back. I enjoy the show for what it is and I'd hate for this to be the last season.

Congrats to Fiona Staples and Brian K. Vaughan on their Harvey Awards wins! Fiona won Best Artist and Best Cover Artist for SAGA while BKV won for Best Writer for SAGA and also got Best New Series for Paper Girls. They also won for Best Continuing Series but Shawn didn't have the award for the picture I guess.

I joined this site on 10/29/2011. At that time I was 26 and working 40 hours a week at a grocery store making minimum wage. I had just got that job after being unemployed for 6 months after losing my job, a great job, after making some bad decisions. I jumped on here to start collecting CGC Deadpool comics because I learned about the character and read some raw books that I borrowed from a friend and enjoyed the character. I made a thread asking for people with Deadpool 9.8 books to PM me. Well, after getting the prices of said books I knew there was no way I could make said purchases with what I was making I decided to not even start and to come back after I had a job that could support the hobby. Fast forward to January of this year. I'm now working at one of the best jobs in my area, I've had it for four years now, making double the minimum wage I was making, getting well over 40 hours per week, and finally making good money. More importantly, making money to get into the hobby. I asked a friend about good reads and he let me borrow his TPB of Saga and I was hooked. Now I'm buying 9.8s of Saga like crazy and looking to build my collection, when surgery and medical bills aren't getting in the way. Gabe, you really need to listen to the advice in here. Stop buying and trading. Sell, sell, sell. Don't worry about flipping. Heck, you don't even need to sell what you have, just stop buying. Sit on them if you must and pick up where you left off in a year, two, or never. You must get your life and yourself straight before you pick collecting and flipping back up. If you don't you will be stuck where you are for the rest of your life. Break the cycle of your family. You and only you can make the choices to do that.

Man, I think it is way past time for you give this up. You need to stop buying comics and sell everything you have. Give up this foolish dream and focus on your life and getting it straightened out. This is more advice you won't listen to like the other that has come before it but it is time to grow up.

I'm digging the changes made so far. Yes, it is definitely a more modern take with some of the characters like Flash Thompson. I'm really looking forward to the first trailer.

Sweet figures. Can't wait for Hot Toys to reveal theirs.

So pumped for this show. I'm hoping they do one season then just combine shows and do Heroes for Hire as the next seasons of this and Luke Cage after The Defenders.

Yeah it is an awesome looking book with that sketch. I would have loved to add it to my collection.

I would hope none since the quality of a movie shouldn't equate to how much it makes. I give this film a 2/5 and to me, it doesn't matter how much money it makes because it's box office total doesn't fix the issues I had with it. I get what you are saying but when it comes to reviews I can't think of anyone as an expert, just another person with an opinion.

This was at an estate sale 126 mile north of me and there were around 2,000 books, including FF #1, Daredevil #1, FF #45 X-Men #10, 14, & 44, Silver Surfer #1, and more. It was a feeding frenzy and this is what I got out if it. Here's the kicker, they were all the same price. That sounds crazy! So they were all listed for the same price per book (like $10 each?) and it was a free-for-all with people grabbing whatever they could? Seems like an estate sale organizer would at least realize that there were items of value there. Congrats though - would like to hear more about it and hope I run into something like that someday! Waaaaay less than that. Wow congrats on that. I would love to own a lot of those books, too but that is just something I will never be able to afford. I'd really like to own a Fantastic Four #5. I'm a big Doom fan.

What We Do In the Shadows is a great movie and I've watched it several times since it came out. So damn funny.

That was pretty good.

He's just practicing. I really hope he gets that role.

I think it will squeak by MoS.

I find this practice in general to be really lame and a rip off to the people paying good money to see this stuff in the theater. I totally agree. I hope it doesn't become a trend but if it actually improves the film, which I thought it did in the case of BvS, then I can see DC doing it more with the films they release that get bad reviews from critics.

I rated the theatrical a 2/5 but the UE is easily a 4/5 for me. I felt it was almost an entirely different film. I really hope Suicide Squad gets a UE.
