    The intention to give back is likely there, but the means to do so are not. Giving back after being in a tough spot can take time, that's understandable. I think the issue is someone leaning on the idea that they're in a tough spot, and feeling entitled to keep taking.

     

    hm Spot on. I don't see how hard it is to grasp that if you cannot give back as much as you take, then maybe you shouldn't be taking. Take within the means of what you can give back. It's simple common sense to keep a good balance and continue making a success of this thread.

    Who's the funny dude that requested a sketch of Whoopi Goldberg! lol

     

    Just kidding, kav! This looks pretty cool. I like this, because she looks like Michonne; unlike some J Scott Campbell sketch of "Michonne" I saw some time ago.

     

    Yes, I pretty much just said your Michonne art is better than J Scott Campbell's!

    NOOOOOOO!!! I am at work and just got a chance to log-in now for a bit and saw this thread had some major action. I never would have thought it was because Frank Barbierie had offered some SDCC 2014 sets here! What an awesome gesture, but me thinks I'm probably way too late for this party...

    gin_and_comics, is that not Rich Henn's ebay handle (it used to be rh3522)?

     

    gin_and_comics is rh3522. He's the one that posted on the last page saying "That auction ended early". If you check his post history you can see he made a topic saying "check my ebay gin_and_comics"

     

    Yup! I remembered it was a boardie... don't know why I confused him with Rich Henn... probably because of the "rh".

    Harv, for what it's worth, I think your doing a helluva job with this thread; I never participated in the PIF thread, but here I am an active participant in this one and that's a testament to the awesomeness of what we've got going here... my 2c

    Thanks ebtorres for the CHOG! It has already made it's way into my display. I had been wanting one of those for a long time! Now I need to get my Poyo Vs Mechaturducken poster mounted back on the wall!

     

    Also, thanks for the sticker and bonus goodies. My kid snagged that Ultimate Spider-Man sticker and batman pin as soon as I opened the box. He will probably snag the Bubble Ship to when he see's what it is.

    :gossip: I love that you're displaying it out of the box; I would never do that! My collector's ocd wouldn't allow me to...

    Must have read his RAK offer wrong or something...anyways thanks for the sarcasm ebtorres

     

    No sarcasm; I was just poking a little fun and lightening up the mood. Sorry if you felt offended by my comment...
