And take Maggie off the list of photos.
you sure that's Maggie? looks like future Carl
It certainly looks like where Carl is headed.
Spot on. Current Maggie was just put there to compare to current Carl to show how non-distinct Carl looks from her (except for the eye-patch). It's a shame.

I wanted to ask, what are the toughest Marvel books from the 90's. Not rare promo's and variants but actual regular issues. After the big comic bust in the early 90's the print runs on some titles were really low, much lower than demand for those issues now.
I'm talking about stuff such as the last few issues of Transformers, G.I Joe, Conan, etc. Hell even ASM in the early to mid 400's had a low print run in relation to current demand that some of these books often go for over $20 each.
Anyone know much about the last issues of Transformers? How low was the low print runs on the last few books? Are they actually that hard to find...or not?
Starting at around issue 70 or 71 they started having low print runs. I have had ok luck with finding later issues in the wild. About 6 months ago i found a dealer at a local flea market and picked up #79 and 80 for a buck. The 79 was vf/nm and the #80 was around fine. NOt super hard to find but hard to find in good condition .
Yeah, I picked up #79 and #80 for 5 bucks yesterday - from an ex-retailer.
He had a run from about #20-80 and I was wondering whether it was worth picking up #70-77 (no #78 unfortunately), just from a collection POV - not interested in ever selling them. I try to collect runs that are genuinely hard to find, if I can grab them at a good price - but I'm not sure if the print runs on these Transformers issues were relatively low or genuinely low..
I'd love to know how many of each of the last 10 issues were printed but I'm not sure that it's possible to find out

In regards to issue 106, the Kirkman/Adlard anniversary issue, here's what I think goes down...
Don't read this until you've read 100. You have been warned.
The return of Glenn!!!

That puts cover B at about 1800 copies (thumbs u

I may have become jaded w/ all the gimmicks covers, but I think that's a very reasonable explanation. I'm still wondering why the WD cover got dumped at the last minute. I hope it wasn't a money thing b/w McFarlane and Kirkman.
Don't forget Mr. Moore.

When did a 5 year old kid start pencilling this book? I've heard a lot of complaints about the artwork, but it didn't really hit me until this issue. Abysmal...
Imagine "that" scene with Pre #20 attention to detail....
Let's take a look at your ink work. Post it up.
I couldn't do any better. That's not really the point. When we are discussing my ability to draw, I'll be sure to PM you.
Show me a 5 year old that can mimic Adlards work and I will show you a prodigy
That could probably be arranged

4 minute preview of Season Three this Sunday night on AMC during "Small Town Security".
Thanks for the heads up. Really hope they show some Governor.

Vengeance of Bane is a title to keep a very close on eye on, imo, in terms of market response to films.
It's a tough call on whether not to sell VOB now, or wait until after the film has been released to the public. The reaction to this film, instead of the hype leading up to it, may actually have a greater influence on any market movement, similar to the Avengers.
I decided to go early and I've got a copy in the MCS auction as we speak. It finishes the day before the movie opens so we'll see.

What's the deal with Nightwing at the moment?

Don't look now but a slabbed 9.4 #1 sold for $800 today. These things are heating up sooner than I thought.
Jim
A slabbed 8.0 sold for over $500 a couple of weeks ago. Can't find it in the completed listings now but it was BIN. People want a copy. Condition is secondary to actually obtaining one.

Isn't Malibu Sun techinically the 1st Spawn?
Not a knock on you, obviously, but I can't believe people are considering a solicitation mag a first appearance. I mean, technically, Previews probably has the first appearances of half of new modern characters.
Maybe I should go stockpile whatever issue of previews shows the cover image of NYX #3 or, better yet, Walking Dead #1!! Previews #25896712 - the first appearance of Rick Grimes!
Great point!
However, I bet there are quite a few people out there who would buy the Previews mag that first solicited WD #1.
I would buy one.

Not sure if this the right thread for this but didn't want to start a new one.
Really more of a foreign price variant but, anyway, wanted to know if it is slightly more valuable than the traditional copy? Or not?

Also, notice the date by Tony's sig on #3's cover. It's dated 02, while both #1 and #2 are dated 03.
The cover for #3 was going to be the cover for #1. That's the cover they pitched to Image with the idea for the book, hence the date. Thankfully, someone at Image had words and we got an awesome cover for #1 and one my all-time favourite covers for #2. Phew.

wow. so i bought a survivor ticket (too bad the walker ones were already sold out), and figured i'd put a pre sale copy on ebay. 10 minutes after i listed it and it's already at $150. wow. it'll cost me $80 + gas money, so probably $100-110. Pick up some El Indios, and have a great trip for free basically.
Nice. Gotta love completionists (thumbs u Have fun dude!
Is Batman 227 the "key" Neal Adams Batman book to have?

I fondled my copy of #227 today. Smelt it a bit.
Boy, it was sweet
