That opening sequence....WOW!

Actually, future Syd went back to recruit David to save the Shadow King so he could stop David.

Are you sure the second one is the Astral plane? My interpretation of that scene was in “reality” with Farouk inside Oliver and the Farouk we see is more a device to show us the conversations going on between Oliver and Farouk. 

Kind of like when they attacked, we saw Oliver disintegrating the guards but it was really Farouk inside him doing it.

But I could be way off.

I disagree a little.

One of the stakes is David being convinced by Farouk if he finds his body, he'll disappear and never come back again. David's youth allowing him to believe this clearly indicates he is in for hard times ahead.

But then the other challenge David creates for himself is by working with Farouk, the people that supported him are now distrusting his intentions. I see trouble with that later on.

I'll admit, I am a little confused why present day David needs to meet with future-state Syd. That threw me off.

I guess I misrepresented what I meant. I get the overall story ark of finding the body, and I actually enjoy the mindf&$k of not knowing if he should actually do it or not. 

But I’m more referring to the episode to episode obstacles...Cary’s arm gets stuck hanging out of Kerry’s body...next scene it’s gobe and she sings a song and he’s out of her body. Teeth chattering...David goes in their heads and plays a mini game and they’re ok.

Last season the drama was in the characters...this season it seems to all be manufactured... minus the main plot.

I absolutely loved season 1, but I’m really struggling with season 2. The visual style is still fantastic but the story just feels very drawn out.

There doesn’t seem to be any stakes involved for any of the characters. Seems like bizarre ideas are just being thrown into the show for the wtf factor and then just forgotten.

I won’t give up on it yet, but it’s detinitely a waiting game hoping it will get better.

Can’t believe I’ve never seen this thread before! 

Anyone playing don’t starve on the PS4? I’m always looking for someone to start a new world with.

Just finished the remake of shadow of the colossus. Still an absolutely incredible game!

Does anyone know why they haven’t already/if they’re going to release a Flash PF, Green Arrow PF or Martian Man Hunter PF? 

Seems like they are bringing out pieces of less importance to the DC universe and leaving out some pretty big ones. We get a million variations or Bats and Supes and Harley, but no Flash or Manhunter in the JLA and no Penguin or Mr Freeze in the batverse. 

Believe it or not, I’m walkin on air....

I like the Exclusive but still want a short hair Black Widow and really like how pretty she is in the illustration. Even though from some angles the normal portrait does look good. I think overall the statue might be like some are saying on the StatueForum, like a GI Joe character. Especially with the Exclusive, she almost could look like the GI Joe movie Scarlett. And that's the bigger problem for me. I'll probably get Prime 1's Scarlett. I'm looking for updates at the upcoming show in Japan in a week or so. Perhaps they will have Baroness too. I'm waiting on Snake Eyes to ship since that was delayed. And with the price of these I can't just get a statue I'm iffy on. And Sideshow seems to have zero problems repeating popular characters after a few years anyway. It would be good if they made a real spy pose Black Widow statue.

Same here. I don't think any of the Reeve Superman statues I've seen have him smiling. This new one is ok but far from the end all be all Superman statue. Same goes for their Wonder Woman statue. I still haven't seen Justice League but for a Wonder Woman statue, I'm leaning towards one of the Prime 1 pieces. All of them look nice. I'm curious if they will make a Jim Lee version even though she's not part of Hush but shows up in For Tomorrow.

I have the PF reeves and the sixth scale and you’re right...no smile at all.

My favourite supes is Alex Ross’s version and he was never much of a smiler but I would love just one superman that shows his positive optimistic side.

I put together a slideshow of the pics released today of Sideshow's new Superman Premium Format.   Preorders begin tomorrow!

 

There are a lot of things I like about this one, but there’s is just something off about the face that I can’t quite put my finger on.

I really think they need to make a statue where he’s at least kind of happy. He always scowling but he’s actually a light hearted superhero most of the time. I’d like a statue that shows that.

Thanks once again Andy!! Great job as usual and a lot of fun!!

happy new year all!

It reminds me of the 4 Kids Walk Into A Bank offering... also seems like something amazing, but about a series of which I'm unfamiliar. Seems like someone should be gobbling that up though, no?

Imagine the walking dead but instead of zombies, the infected do every sick, disgusting and depraved act that the most vile human being could come up with. That’s crossed. Not for the squeamish at all...Garth Enis really has  some messed up ideas.

If you’ve never read one and you’re curious, I’d grab the trade of Crossed:wish you were here. It’s probably the most tame of all the series.

However be warned...

I'll take prize #70. Diamond City mystery box.

As long as you don't mind bed bugs...

p.s. I'll pick live Ham-boy

How are you doing buddy?

I'm doing well. How about yourself?

Next up is a set of The Dark Tower The Gunslinger Born variants all CGC 9.8. They are each signed by contributing artists and writers.

Asking $1500 shipped

Next up is a book I've "sold" twice but has fallen through both times so here it is again. The Stand Captain Trips signed by Stephen King. One of the very very few books signed by Mr King. Not to mention is a CGC 9.9.

Sold 

Next up is another fairly rare book. Elseworlds 80 page giant. Famously recalled for putting baby superman in a microwave, a large portion of the print run was destroyed.

Asking $600 Shipped

First up is a book that doesn't come up very often. This is the Superman Bradman book. If you're not familiar with it you should google it...pretty cool story, but the gist is that a family in the UK had the book made for their sons bat mitvah. Exact numbers of the print run vary but it is considered a very rare Superman book. 

This copy comes with a pretty cool letter from the original seller explaining how they came by the book.

Asking $1000 shipped

I’m bumping this thread cause I had some interest in one of the books recently so I thought I’d see if anyone else is interested.

Haven't been around for a while, pretty much out of the comics biz but have a couple kinda cool books leftover that I'm going to be listing here.

I think I still have a kudos thread, I'll try to find it and add it to this post.

Rules are pretty much standard. No HOSers or probies. First  in the thread gets the book. Shipping is included in the price to Canada and the cont. US unless otherwise stated.

Paypal, cheque or money order are fine, but cheques have to clear before I'll ship.

Feel free to threadcrap and PM any questions you might have.

Thanks for looking.

I might be listing some statues as well...
