  1. Thank you. Hadn't thought about Marvel Team-Ups. I think my next goal is to get my complete run of Marvel GI Joe. I had it at one point, but sold it (seller's remorse big time). Then I may move on to Spectacular Spider-Man.
  2. Thanks. Great story. Amazing how these books can bring up great memories.
  3. It's been awhile for me as well. I am currently taking on the challenge of reading at least the first volume of Amazing Spider-Man. Reading 1-2 books a day during lunch break. Currently have #18 queued up next.
  4. I am happy to say I now have a complete run of Web Of Spider-Man. Thanks to a fellow board member that I got the last piece from. It is a complete run, but it does have a mix of newsstand and direct editions. Took a little time to chip away and get each, but love the process of scavenging for each one.
  5. 23/100 - Which is more than I thought it would have been. Due to it being heavy in Spider-Man, that helped since I majority of my comics are Spider-Man related.
  6. Got these this week thanks to a fellow board member.
  7. While I am nowhere at the level of what I am seeing, I got this back recently. Graded much better than I thought it would.
  8. Thanks. Not the way I expected to start my weekend.
  9. There were a lot of F-bombs at first but upon reflection I realize it isn't too bad.
  10. That is correct. That is why it could have been worse. All of my more "collectible" comics were on the shelves off the floor and on the other side of the room. Was really bummed about ASM 298 considering I just got it and had planned on submitting it. The desk area is where I bag and board my new books. Just happened to have the 298 and a 306 (which somehow survived with no damage thankfully).
  11. House was built in 1979. We moved in about 2 1/2 years ago.
  12. So this happened to me today. The above our the "before" pictures. Below are the after. Came home to a busted pipe and water EVERY where. Can't tell what exactly happened, but damage was above my desk and computer set up. Water spread pretty good. Was thankful I put my books on the shelving about a month or so ago. Could have been much worse. The only damage was done was to some recent issues purchased but also a recent acquisition of ASM 299 from @ft88 was damaged. Which makes me very sad. Was pleasantly surprised to see that some books that were exposed but were in bags were well protected.
  13. I have the 3 omnibuses( omnibusi?) for Invincible. Love the art and the story. More information about the voice actors. https://deadline.com/2019/01/invincible-cast-steven-yeun-j-k-simmons-robert-kirkman-amazon-series-1202546501/
  14. Thought I was going to be done for a bit, but just can't help myself. I will take the following, if still available. More to my pile. Kraven's Last Hunt: Complete set $22.00 Amazing Spider-Man #179 VF+ 8.5 $8.00 Amazing Spider-Man #232 NM- 9.2 $5.00 Amazing Spider-Man #234 NM 9.4 $5.00
  15. Any and all input is appreciated. *still learning my way around here*
  16. Adding my "dork dungeon", as my wife calls it. I get the basement, where I also have a tv and my gaming set up. I just got the shelving units and moved all my books into short boxes. That way they can all fit on the shelves and are easy to access (more or less). I don't have much artwork, yet, but will add eventually.
  17. Closing in on my completing my Web of Spider-Man collection. Got these two. Then I will get #36 from comicsyte95 which will complete my run.
  18. Saw it over the weekend. Wife liked it more than I did. Action scenes were at times hard to follow. Forced humor didn't work in most cases (writing? or actor delivery? or both?). Plot holes galore. Special effects were top notch. Step above Justice League is about the best thing I can say about it.
  19. Teaser Trailer: GHOSTBUSTERS 3 Teaser Trailer (2020) Is it really going to happen?
  20. Interesting read. I've been collecting comics for over 30 years and still don't know how to grade properly.
