  1. Haha thanks T!! and yes it's an actual photo taken from my iphone of all places. See my previous post about the piano bench ? I recall seeing some pic with the entire Marvel Mystery or Captain America Comics Run I believe BP/Strawman posted it only proving you can indeed get LOTS of books into one shot if you can get up high enough
  2. me too!! thanks bro i actually had to stand on my piano bench to get em all in for this on. If i get too many more i'm gonna need to go to the garage and get the ladder out haha!! Either that or have Bedrock Evans come over and take the pic I hear he's pretty vertical!!
  3. hahaha!! Thanks brother i knew you would appreciate these my friend!! There has probably never been so many low grade rags taken so joyfully into a group shot than this ?
  4. Thanks dude!! speaking of Mystery Men and Fox books again if you were hunting any of these sadly they couldn't be found in Cleveland this year ?
  5. You got it brother that was a heck of a gift awhile back!!
  6. haha sorry we didn't get to meet up my friend hope you had fun!! I did VERY well at the Casino!! at the buffet of course not monetarily speaking
  7. this was the only Cosplay pic i took and since we were talking about the no pocket thing earlier (Great Zatanna gettup btw CQ) This individuals Stranger Things costume was nuttier than squirrel poop!! Honestly couldn't figure out how someone was wearing it literally dragging it around. It was awesome and all but that had to be more uncomfortable than a nun in a cucumber patch!! Just my . All kinds of kinds i suppose ?
  8. I'm not much one for pics and like i said i was with my buddies who i don't see often...no wall books sorry folks and a neat little book I picked up writer and artist were pretty cool dudes
  9. I went Saturday morning as I mentioned with a couple buddies and we hit up the Casino afterwards. Showed up at opening time and stayed for around 4 hrs. Not many comic booths would be a correct analogy and the best books to be found were by far at Dave and Adams and RareHighGrade Bobs booth. The highlight of the show for me would probably be meeting Bob and getting to hold his Tec 31 which was the first for me. He was super nice and I will definitely be doing business with him in the future. Didn't buy anything this time around. There was a dealer out of PA that had a huge 2 dollar booth as well as a Ton of nice Silver and Bronze age stuff. This was a show that if you were in the market for a Werewolf by Night 32 or ASM 300 you would have found several of each. NOT a SINGLE Fox hero book in the entire room that I saw and I asked. I also really didn't see any other esoteric stuff either like no MLJs although I did see an Archie 1 at DAs. The artists alley was cool and my buddies had a few commissions done as well as buying some original pieces of prints. I did buy a bunch of 2 dollar stuff which isn't like me and and few small print stuff including a book call the Specialists which is based on WWII. LOTS of Cosplayers and the Famous folks were set up a little different this year being in the middle which was cool if that was your thing. So to sum things up as expected no one really had anything up my particular alley of interest besides Bob and D&As but if you were into SA to modern stuff you would have had a blast. Hats off again to Blazing Bob and Dave and Adam I hope had a good show and I saw picking up a little SA collection (FYI Carbo was not present doing the buying if anyone is interested) Toys and merchandise/ gaming/ a virtual reality booth set up by State Farm all represented this Con. The aisles really started filling up by 2 PM with cosplayers and the like and thats when we ducked out and hit up the buffet haha!! We had a great time all in all but I would 100% rather go to show in small hotel conference room but this seems to be the way of the future con.
  10. GREAT BOOK RICK!!! Such an awesome cover on this one!! fantastic copy!!
  11. Yeah i'm pretty sad Harley isn't coming i buy something from him every show i see him he's a nice guy with Super selection of books. I will be there tomorrow morning wearing a Mystery Men Comics Tshirt. I hope it's not the only GA cover in the room haha!! Oh well i've been buying so much lately i'm more or less just going to hang out with friends from out of town but if I do find something eclectic i need i will pounce on it but i doubt it. One of my friends coming collects from bronze to modern and has a few books on his hit list. I think he will have a much better shot at finding comics than myself. Agree with everyone though what a bad weekend to plan this around. Looks like ol' Dean Cain and Anthony Mackie/Falcon got on the list. The celebs really aren't my thing personally bit it's cool they got a couple more folks.
  12. And it continues!!! Man i LOVE these boards and especially this thread great books everyone!!

  15. Thanks Corey and and yes you did!!? As far as Fine Covers are concerned Hit 7 is definitely a high QUALITY choice!!! ?
  16. I plan on, "artificially inflating" a book or two ? From now on that is what i am going to call most of my bidding
  17. ?Well Chariot prop or not the QUALITY of his acting did bring him an Oscar if i'm not mistaken but I won't lie I only used that word Dynamic to sneak another publisher in there
