!!! I will now specifically check all your posts each day. Honestly, you make me laugh more than the comedy shows I watch. Peace, Chip

Just one GA book up right now, and it's an Exciting Comics #64, CGC graded 9.0 (OW/W pages) with an Alex Schomburg cover. A very pretty copy! Check it out here... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Exciting-Comics-64-1948-CGC-Graded-9-0-OW-W-Pages-/321387921227?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item4ad4367f4b Thanks for looking! Peace, Chip

She's OK, but you could do better. ...and cheaper, but I wanted to stay on topic. Peace, Chip

If I had that kind of money I'd hire Katy Perry for something else entirely. Just sayin'... Peace, Chip

Why are the major players' names shrouded in such secrecy? Who are they? Peace, Chip

Yup! I heard it will top $1 million! I think that delekketessen guy said it... Peace, Chip

I held the OA for the X-men #137 cover in one hand and the page where Phoenix dies in the other. To say my hands were shaking is an understatement. Good times, though. Peace, Chip

I would like the names and phone numbers of the "usual suspects" bidding on this auction. I'm not going to harass them, I'm simply going to ask them each once if they can get the $5,000+ from in-between their couch cushions and under their car seats and send it to me. I could really use the cash and they certainly won't miss it. Thanks. Peace, Chip

Is the whole story in Volume 1 of the trade, or do you need to get both volumes? Thanks in advance for any info. Peace, Chip

I thought this was common knowledge. Beast fixes him up with something that allows him to walk. It's even in this thread a few times, I believe. Peace, Chip

This movie is going to be bigger than anyone thinks, IMHO. That trailer looked just perfect...it's like watching a real-life comic book. I've waited my whole comic-collecting life for the time we're living in right now as far as these films are concerned. Peace, Chip

When I think that, for one day in my life, I held half the OA for X-Men #133 in my hands...I really can't believe it. It was like an out-of-body experience. *sigh* "Memories..." Peace, Chip

That kicks . I can't wait to see this! Peace, Chip

Peace, Chip

A near-complete run from 204 to 262 just showed up yesterday... Peace, Chip

Great posts, Phamton. Well thought-out and right on the money. Peace, Chip

I absolutely loved what they did with Zola and I smiled when they name-dropped Dr. Strange. I thought the mid-credits scene was done very well, also. Von Strucker is just as I'd picture him if he were real. This is such a great time for us. Enjoy it, my friends. Peace, Chip

April and I went to see it yesterday. All that was available during the time we had to see it was the 3D show, and surprisingly the 3D was non-distracting. It felt more like you were "in" the film and it certainly was very sharp & clear. April has gotten headaches whenever she's seen 3D films in the past, but this one didn't bother her at all. Regarding the film...wow. It was simply perfect. The acting, the effects, the drama, the fighting...wow. I wouldn't change a thing, really. April was mad when I commented on ScarJo's rear filling the screen for one shot, but then she got Evans in a tank top with all his ripped-ness later so I told her to shut it. . Just a great time at the theater, and since the trailers were TNMT, X-Men, ASM2 and Guardians I really felt lucky. This is a golden age for us comic book fans, and I'm loving every minute of my childhood dreams of real-life superheroes playing out on the big screen. Peace, Chip

(thumbs u Peace, Chip

I can't wait for April's reaction when the mask comes off. It'll probably the same as when my pants come off. Dead silence. Peace, Chip

That's why I think GOTG is going to kill it. Marvel knows that all their momentum will screech to a halt if any movie they have control over from here on out is bad. Peace, Chip

Those that have seen this and Thor 2, are you now more pumped for GOTG because the bar seems to have been raised as far as quality? Peace, Chip

I've heard you can save money by printing a blue label with the book's info on it and then only have to change the color to purple for the subsequent label printing. Peace, Chip

Here's mine...soon to be not-mine... Peace, Chip
