Crimebuster

Finally, glad to get this thing out of the way!!

Thanks for the information!!

Howdy! I'm trying to put together a small collection of comics where the stories are set at a Disney theme park. What's proving tricky is that there are a bunch of comics that have Disneyland in the title, but they don't all seem to feature stories that actually take place at the park. For example, I have "Vacation in Disneyland," which you would think takes place in the park. But not really. Instead, Tinkerbell acts as a narrator introducing different stories that are inspired by parts of the park. So for instance, there's one panel where she's like "Oh, here we are at Rocket to the Moon" - but the story isn't set in Tomorrowland, it's a story about Disney characters taking a rocket to space. For me, the fun part is seeing the park - seeing the depictions of the old attractions, and the characters interacting with them. That's what I want. But it's hard to figure out from descriptions online which stories — if any! — are actually set at the park, and which ones just use the idea of the park as a framing device like this. Does anybody know which Disneyland issues, if any, are actually set at the park? Thanks!

I'm back with three more videos from my YouTube channel. First up, a look at some of my books about comics: Next, it's an Ask Me Anything, where I answer viewer-submitted questions about everything under the sun, but mostly comics: And finally, another back issue haul video, with some more new acquisitions, including a batch of Archie books purchased here on the boards! Plus: the thumbnail image is an homage to Gil Kane!!

I was very excited to finally match someone!

Thanks!

Hey everyone! I'm just about done sending out the rewards to everyone who backed The Crimebusters #2 on Kickstarter — I'm hoping to get the last rewards shipped out this week — so I've finally returned to the drawing board to begin drawing issue #3. Here's a look at the Kickstarter exclusive legacy number variant cover for the third issue (#122 in this case with the numbering continued from Boy Comics), which is an homage to the work of Alphonse Mucha:

Hello, friends! I've made a couple new videos I thought you might enjoy. First, here's a look at the revolutionary storyline science fiction grandmaster Samuel R. Delany had planned for Wonder Woman, and how it got abruptly cancelled by DC after just one issue thanks to some very unexpected and highly ironic political interference: And here's a look at some of the back issues I've been buying as retail therapy during the quarantine. This is part one of what looks like could be an infinite part series, as I've got a ton of other books still en route from ebay and the boards here:

Hey there, friends! I made another YouTube video that I thought might be of interest to some of you. Since I started working on my self-published comic The Crimebusters a couple years ago, I've had a lot of questions about the process. I know many comic fans dream of making their own comics! So I decided to make a video that goes into as much detail as I could think of about every step of the creative process, from just being a fan, to unboxing the latest completed issue. It's very long, but there are time stamps in the video description that point to specific topics if there's some particular area of interest or question you have. I hope this is of interest and helps some of you who may be considering taking the leap into making comics!

Howdy! Thanks for the freebies, I appreciate it! I think there's a little confusion on the issues - the ones I had selected were 27, 29, 33, 35, 41, and 42. If these have been claimed already, no problem! Sorry for any confusion.

The long awaited, eagerly anticipated, and potentially entertaining fourth installment of my podcast series about Star Wars by Marvel Comics is now available to download here!

I've added a couple new YouTube videos to my channel. In this one, I go off the rails discussing Roy Lichtenstein: And in this one, I explain why Jughead vol. 2 #89 is a personal grail even though almost nobody else has ever heard of it:

I've got a couple new videos to share, first and foremost a second long Top 50 video showcasing 50 top books from my personal collection: And I also did a short video discussing my copy of Avengers #102!

I really enjoyed watching your second video here, and I learned some stuff, which is great! I was also inspired to do a second Top 50 video myself. I do love talking about old comics, so I went a little crazy with the length this time, but I hope you all enjoy it:

If you're stuck in quarantine and looking to kill two hours of time, I made a YouTube video showing off my Avengers #1-100:

Really nice looking copy!

Everyone these days seem to be about key issues, but while I like those as well, at heart I'm a full run guy. I know completists are out of fashion these days, but it's in my blood. So I decided to sit down and do a video showcasing the centerpiece of my collection, Avengers #1-100. I have a full run of all 502 issues plus annuals, but just the first 100 issues resulted in a video that's almost two hours long! But if people like it I might do a follow up with, say, issues #101-150 and annuals and crossovers or something. Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

Unfortunately, no. I have a June 13 (from 1974), but not a June 12. 1989 would be very hard to find any date stamps from, though theoretically possible. I personally have never found a book stamped after 1987, but I've seen pictures of some stamped as late as 1991.
