  1. This is excellent news! people need to stop buying Golden Age books! No...really...stop buying them. More for me.
  2. Meh. I don’t care sharing how much I make or spend on comics. All you foos worried about privacy, then hop on your iPhones after passing your Ring camera on the way to your living room before telling Alexia to turn on your Anime stream. Lol Privacy is a thing of the past.
  3. I was most intrigued by the question dealing with AI software and scanning equipment that would add “consistency” to grading. Not sure how I feel about that.
  4. I kept waiting for a prize to compensate for the 25 minutes of my life I lost but...no cookie. And yes...they really did ask the names of the graders we knew! I had to guess about how many comics I have and their total worth. I really have no idea.
  5. I did get the survey. It took way longer than "10 minutes" to complete.
  6. The thing is, you probably already own everything he is buying! But the Gem, the All-top, and the Startling all in one week? I’d be thrilled if I could do it in a year! I just love those particular books so hard. And welcome to the boards OP! Keep bringing the heat,
  7. It’s hard to gauge your tastes when you simply buy everything! comical situations has some TASTE! That, I can see!
  8. comical Situations always nabs the best books on the boards. Congrats!
  9. I recently went through this myself! Got another one due this summer, need a bigger car, wife is quitting her job to stay at home for a few years. There goes the comic budget for 2020! I know it hurts to let go of the goods. Been there a few times, but rebuilding can be fun as well. GLWTS OP!
  10. ...and that would be at 30% off, correct? Sorry for the multi-post, but I didn’t want to edit my take. Thanks! I have the original pulp, and they will go nicely together.
  11. I may be in the minority, but I’d take Cap 1 over Action 1, if market value wasn’t a consideration. If it were, I’d sell the Action 1 to fund the Cap 1.
  12. I greatly prefer the black label. Gold is almost always hideous. I wish I'd have known we had the opportunity to vote. The newest version is gaudy.
  13. Anyway, the OP is in a microscopic minority. ASM 129 is a very important key. Plus, the composition of the cover is quite remarkable. I’m not here to debate its worth, but its identity as a key is certain and nearly future proof. I’m actually shocked to learn there are people who disagree with that assessment. Compared to keys of similar importance, it is actually undervalued in today’s market, or rather, the other keys are overvalued!
  14. Big time truth, and this explains my perspective. Those were the years when I first got into the game. I think his diminished popularity is due to his association with guns. After Columbine, no one wanted to throw weight behind a dark, gun-toting killer. That’s my theory, anyway.
  15. I knew about The Punisher as a kid before I knew about The X-men.
  16. Liefeld gave Deadpool a mask so he wouldn’t have to draw a face over and over again. Same with the shoulder pads. not like the board needs anymore Liefeld hate, but ever notice how all his characters, regardless of gender, have the exact same face and expression? Ugh.
