  2. On the #1, there is a faint signature on the left between the mannequins. I've only been on this site for a little more than 2 years and I've seen at least a half-dozen threads on his scam auctions. I mean, awful. Please add him to your block list on eBay. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=5976592&fpart=6 http://cgcforum.gpanalysis.com/cgcforum_thread.asp?pagenumber=47&ThreadID=4688592&forumID=4&threadName=Ebayer+to+watch+out+for%3A+bijoubaby05 http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=6061764&fpart=13 http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4688899&fpart=47 I did not realize this was the same guy. Thanks for the info. That's scary stuff...reading those makes me fearful of ever buying a comic as an investment. says the OA addict what I am saying there is, that with OA you know its the page in question and the condition is pretty apparent, no need for a grading system..

  4. As weird as it is to say another man's leg looks good. That is one cool tattoo!
  5. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/walking-dead-why-glen-mazzara-410017 For the lazy: When a network fires two showrunners in less than 18 months from its biggest hit -- and one of the most successful franchises on television -- that is sure to make waves in Hollywood and with fans. So no matter how AMC tried to spin the Dec. 21 departure of Glen Mazzara from The Walking Dead as just one of those amicable things, insiders rolled their eyes -- especially because the network let go co-creator Frank Darabont in July 2011 and has had high-profile spats with writer-producers on its hits Mad Men and Breaking Bad. AMC and Walking Dead comic book writer and producer Robert Kirkman were blamed for Mazzara's ouster and called out by name by showrunners Shawn Ryan (Last Resort) and Kurt Sutter (Sons of Anarchy), neither of whom is involved with Walking Dead but both of whom worked with Mazzara on Ryan's FX series The Shield. Ryan tweeted, "It's a real question now why good showrunners should sell to AMC," and Sutter followed with a tweet declaring that AMC had sent him "a gift basket filled with … broken promises and the marinated tongue used to lick Kirkman's ." In a follow-up video posted on his website, Sutter denounced AMC for departing from a cable culture that generally allows showrunners more creative freedom than do the broadcast networks. Kirkman, he added, "is an amazing visual artist and a graphic artist [but] knows very little about TV, and the reins keep going back to him in this process, and he doesn't know how to run a show." Several insiders confirm that Kirkman, whose detailed graphic novels form the basis of the series, is "very proprietary," as one puts it. One adds, "I believe Robert wants to maintain a certain amount of his control, and AMC needs Robert for the fan base." But despite the vitriol, some sources involved with Walking Dead say Kirkman was one of several producers on the show who had issues with Mazzara and his vision. One source says Mazzara's shortcomings in running the series during the most recent third season became "abundantly clear … especially for the second half of the season." This source says production was shut down "several times" because of a lack of material. Mazzara declined comment but will participate in a Jan. 11 AFI awards luncheon that will honor Walking Dead as one of 2012's top shows. The midseason finale Dec. 2 lured 10.5 million total viewers and 6.9 million in the key adults 18-to-49 demo, crushing nearly all broadcast network shows. To date, Kirkman has responded to the criticism only with a restrained tweet: "@sutterink is brilliant and Sons is my favorite show on TV. Still, it's upsetting to see him ranting about things he knows nothing about." AMC declined comment.
  6. Someone called for me? I said needs some coolness, not awesome OA or slabbed #1's. Alright, how about my dog in a Brooklyn hoodie? Now normally I am fervently opposed to dogs in clothes, but this hoodie is cool.
  7. I hear Peter Parker is looking for work...especially as a zombie. Could be the new Michonne/zombie relationship we have all been waiting for.

  9. Mark told me that the guys from Skybound bought a few pages before he even posted them. That's what he said. I need to get a job at Skybound To Mark's credit he is very professional and does get the artwork up pretty quickly and updates the sites with great scans week after week.. Still a few nice 106 pages available..

  16. I recently subbed a bunch of comics - it was my first experiencing doing it -- I did it at a comic-con -- saved a bunch by not having to ship...obviously a bit of risk in having to bring them but I found the experience quick and easy..
  17. seems like from the description one could try to resubmit in hopes of a 9.6?
  18. woah, what came first, the comic or the OA? gonna go philosophize on that for a while, yo.
