  1. Let the countdown for the registry begin! Looks like there are only about 80 sets to be created before this one. So glad I requested this when I did. Happy to see this thread back alive!
  2. Late to the party...I have a graded blue set of 9.8s. Just sent in issues 5-10 for slow track about 3 weeks ago too. Thanks for the update Frank! Let us know how we can help.
  3. Wow! Stunning books in here! I just picked up my very first Atlas title. I know it isn't on the same level but wanted to show it off anyway.
  4. I remember you calling it. That is why I picked up a copy for myself. Got a NM+ copy off the bay for 7 bucks about 2 months back. Thanks Za!
  5. Damn ZA! Since you can't get Dragotta ATM I'd say you got the next best thing. Glad you shared it with the rest of us!
  6. They're built to hold CGC comics. If anyone would like the exact dimensions I used I can send over the drawn out plans. I made my first box to hold my Five Ghosts collection. You can see that box here . After that I wanted to build a couple more and thought TWD would be the perfect comic since it has so many accessible high quality images (which are needed for the machine to burn).
  7. Thanks guys! IMO the 19 cover turned out better than the Carl eye blown off image. I'm not sure if they'll be for sale soon but at some point they may be. I wish I could help make more but just don't have the time. When I get some finished pics I'll be sure to post them.
  8. I recently helped build a walking dead CGC box and wanted to share a couple pictures of the lids. I only helped with the burning, staining, and felt work (interior) so I have yet to see the final product but I'm sure it will look amazing. A little blurry due to the focus being on the walking dead logo:
  9. Getting some SS of the variant at ECCC, and don't forget issue 7 has a Phantom Variant, and issue 6 has two variant, missed the Trick or Treat one. Man, wish I was at ECCC! I currently have every phantom variant (+ the #6 variant from third eye) but I have yet to submit them. Still debating whether I should or not. I'm not much of a store variant guy but might need to submit them just to go with my set. O and Viking...9.9s and 10.0s are a great start! I personalyl don't have anything higher than a 9.8 so you got me beat there. I always wonder where that 9.9 #1 ECCC is at. To my knowledge it never has come to surface. Should have known better. Congrats! I'm guessing you got the #3 10.0 as well. I haven't checked the census in a while but I think that was the only 10 so far.

  11. Agreed, still a super rare find which I am grateful for. I'm patently waiting for the FG registry set to be made. As soon as I get issue 10 in I'll be sending in issues 6-10 at the same time. I also need to get that stunning ECCC Rossmo variant. SO...who is currently going for a registry set? I know you are ZA. What about you Viking? I know you are involved in a few other registries and last time I talked with you I think you said you were on the fence. I also wonder if access is completing a set. Haven't seen him around lately.
  12. Great grab Solar! I can't believe you even found one. Congrats! By the way Za, if you were counting mine as an ashcan, it unfortunately isn't. After a little research I found out I actually own the NYCC release. Still extremely content to own it but now on the prowl for a ashcan. Wish me luck!
  13. Sweet books mrmyst! Lovin the Weird Terror 7. That's the Big Apple copy right? If so, I was thinking about picking that up not too long ago.
  14. +1 I can never get enough of this series. Still at the very bottom of my pile (I save the best for last).
  15. Actually I can't... I have to be in town during the convention due circumstances I cannot control. Not happy about it, but it happens NOOOOOOOO!!!! Bummer you can't go man. Hope it's nothing too serious. BTW expect a PM from me soon.
  16. Sweetness! Just in time too. I just purchased the NYCC variant last week. Now I have another Five Ghosts comic to desire. I know ZaCrew is going
  17. That really is stunning! You can tell that a ton of time was put into that. Enjoy!

  19. "Right now, we’ve got the series plotted through issue 25. This will take us into four collections (which is crazy to us!) and we’ll get to see a lot of very cool stuff. The idea is that after we wrap our current LOST COASTLINES arc, we’ll jump into a shorter horror focused story, a short story about Fabian’s past, and then into a big arc wrapping our current plot line. It’ll all be pretty amazing when it’s done and we’ll feel like we have VOLUME ONE complete." FABIAN! HORROR! YAY! Can't wait to read that!
  20. (worship) My favorite cover. I had been debating which cover was cooler (ECCC vs #4) but you just made up my mind. I know you've posted this before but thanks for showing her off once again.
  21. (thumbs u Looking forward to reading it in its entirety next week! Thanks for sharing.
  22. Very much looking forward to seeing this new wrap cover! Please keep us updated Frank.
  23. +1 Just read #8 yesterday! Every issue amazes me. Such a fun read!
  24. I remember BeerThirty selling IE variants on here last year. Not sure if he's going this year though.
