  1. agreed - he isnt too bright... on another note... good deal? : http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Walkng-Dead-1-2-3-4-5-6-Run-Lot-ALL-1st-Prints-Robert-Kirkman-HOT-/290742847009?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item43b19fc621
  2. all were available on Splash for 100 dollars - the guy who bought them - Lorne - bought them with the intent of insta-flipping. - Lorne and I are friends - thats how I know about the pages, . Funny that once someone puts it on ebay, it immediately becomes more valuable or more attractive.

  4. Not 'til he gets rid of Negad. That needs to die. Not 'til I dress like him at next year's con, dude. but will you bring Lucille with you? would love to see him explain the bat at security check in

  6. This is a discussion board braggy-bear, as such, we discuss ideas -- using catch all phrases like "common sense would tell you" really doesn't move forward the conversation, rather it just sort of entrenches yourself deeper in your views.. Try to be more open to other people and their ideas, for no reason other than you might enjoy the conversation more, and maybe even make a new friend! Edit: forgot to include:
  7. Go play with your GI-JOE's while us adults have a serious convo.. Do I need to get out the South Park images again, Braggy-boy?
  8. There aren't any, if so it's not intentional. Typically, those who feel they MUST find a connection will stretch things out until they make that connection. The walking dead is about survival for yourself and those closest to you; survival of the fittest. Neither of which is what Jesus tried to teach his disciples in the Gospel for example. I mean its not like you can 'save' a zombie, right? There are no christian connections to the WD Jerome Just another case of some group trying to align themselves with pop culture. Not when every other scene is shot in a church, and every 3rd line is about God, faith, belief, and some of the more weighted scenes (think Maggie and Glenn) are about faith and God. If not directly to do with Christianity, there is definitely a push for a religious element on the show. Re-watch some episodes and you will be surprised at how many references you see now that someone pointed it out..
  9. a bit off topic, but it deals with death and zombies (kinda, and its awesome) so: www.nydailynews.com/news/justice-story/justice-story-stuttering-jack-slain-a-plot-sell-corpse-yale-university-article-1.1105692
  10. just for fun you should re-submit it and then post a video exposing them when it comes back less. I would almost pay for you to do it -- Any else want to chip up to see it done? I got 10 on it!
  11. that Christian elements are mentioned and referenced are enough IMHO. Dont listen to me -- listen to the many, many Christians who state TWD has tons of references: Here's one: http://www.christianpost.com/news/the-walking-dead-examines-faith-in-zombie-infested-world-61523/
  12. and Shane being baptized with the water? dialogue created with the intention of pushing the values
  13. I'm a fan of the tv show - parts were slow, parts were unnecessary product placement - think lime green suv that Shane drove - yea right!, parts were super religious and awfully pointed toward Christ and Christian virtues, which is so annoying on its face when TV pushes those beliefs...but I digress - Where else are you seeing sweet zombie action on a TV show?
  14. also the art and the comic are really at its infancy -- think back to when WD was at issue 30...
  15. I just think its tough to swallow that the prices have gotten so inflated. These covers were going for $500-$1000 not too long ago - Thats part of my logic why I think the WD price bubble will level off in a few years..Especially as more covers and more OA continue to get produced...
  16. im guessing just like the wd 100 cover - online blind, with one bid per customer (or email )
  17. - for those that are interested - it seems that the most likely route for all new OA covers for WD will be set at an auction - heard it direct from Mark via email.
  18. Backwards in time? Yes. Forwards in time? No way unless it's so vague that it won't ruin the narrative tension created over the last 10 years of not knowing who would live or die from issue to issue. Seeing any character alive 10 years from now destroys any chance of creating or maintaining tension in the storytelling as it pertains to that character. No matter what happened in regular time you'd know that the particular character survives it. The backwards in time I see happening as well, and am excited about it. I've mentioned this before, but someone at my LCS had a theory (which at first i thought was ludacris) that it would be kind of cool if we see the characters in a precarious situation, and the next issue opens back at day 1 of the outbreak, and its following an entirely different group of people. We then follow them for a certain amount of time, then eventually they cross paths with Rick and the gang, and it goes from there. I just feel that theory could greatly extend the life of the comic. or create a great offshoot
  19. That is laughable, but... I hope it sells, because I have 4 Jesus pages from the same issue. That is laughable, but... I hope it sells, because I have 4 Jesus pages from the same issue. wait! it comes with a copy of the issue!
  20. I know some of my BIN prices are high...but still within reason -- is this within reason? http://www.ebay.com/itm/THE-WALKING-DEAD-92-PAGE-19-ORIGINAL-ART-CHARLIE-ADLARD-1ST-JESUS-PAUL-MONROE-/230829027879?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35be7b7227
