  1. Twitter rant? How much beyond one post did he say that? I joke to him about burning art a ton but he only did 7 pages.

     

    It seems to be a running theme of his, at least 8 tweets in the past year. Don't get me wrong I love his art and he seems like a real nice fellow who does lovely things for charity but not everyone can be perfect.

  2. Oh yea I forget names! Cool stuff.

     

    Ryan Ottley art can be gotten for a decent price. Most of the cool stuff has been grabbed already, but he sells EVERYTHING. I'm going to have to pick some up when I get some money.

     

    He Either sells or burns everything.

     

    As a person he's not the smartest fella. He's been on a bit of a twitter rant recently about how he hates zombies and can't wait for the fad to end. Just bizarre.

  3. I need a recommendation! An outstanding Sci Fi, Fantasy or Horror written within the past 10 years.
    Wanted to add one more recommendation. One that keeps popping up repeatedly throughout this thread:

     

    Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

     

    Hard to classify, other than 'futuristic fantasy'. Set in the year 2044, it's both a 'virtual reality' love letter to 80's pop culture and one hell of an adventure story.

    If your looking for just one new book to fall into, this may be it. Top shelf goodness.

    I've read it! Absolute fantastic book that I read with my missus and we both loved it so much and consider it one of the best books we have ever read.

     

    I would love to find another book that would make us feel the same way. Thanks for the recommendations thus far.

    First Eve ever was actually in Invincible #1 but she is not in costume and it's only one panel. Invincible #62's cover is the first time Ottley drew any form to Conquest other than the arms from 61's cover.

     

     

    I don't think it can be classed as a 1st appearance because she is neither spoken to nor is the reader made aware of her (just a figure in the background). Usually that is classed as a cameo rather than a 1st appearance.

     

    Her first appearance is issue two as costumed Atom Eve and then later as Eve herself.

  5. I wonder if the variant of Last of Us: American Dreams #1 that came with the LE editions of the game will pick up. It's still sticking at 15 bucks in most auctions.

     

    I think that's because the 1st print has only a 5,000 print run where as the LE version could have 10's of thousands if not a hundred thousand.

     

    If that is so, then there should be a 15/1 ration of the LE edition comics compared to the normal edition, but it's almost the other way around. Puzzling.

     

    I understand what you are saying but the comic had a direct route to market so that will be the case. In the long term I think it will correct itself. Something to take into account also is Sony could produce more of the LE at a later date, it's not uncommon in the games industry.

    I don't know...I haven't seen a lot of movement on mine...lotsa people looking, maybe it was cause someone said GEM 10.0; and someone is gonnnnna be disapointed...

     

    Maybe it's because you have your #1 listed that it has tiny flaws and spine ding? Also in Canada which will stop a few buyers (shrug)
