    I hadn't checked in a while or since last year, looks as though 9.6 goes for nearly$400 now so I'm sure you can do your math, I think it's cool! 

    It would be gutsy for me, but COOL!

    I was thinking I could get a regular printing 9.8, or I could own the lone copy on the census for the lions gate reprint. Lone copy for now at least.

    I’ve never understood why - in an age where Michael Turner art gets recycled and tweaked by publishers all the time - some of this classic Stevens art is not “redeveloped” for new covers. Even if the publishers don’t do it, why don’t stores for their exclusives?

    The Stevens estate is active and easy to find - they even sell on eBay - so it seems straightforward.

    To be fair, Jetpack Comics did some amazing Stevens exclusive covers years ago on some Rocketeer issues, but why not others?

    Agreed. I would love to see the cover of Vamps and Vixens repurposed for one of the Bettie Page series that Dynamite puts out every year.

    from mechanics horror stories:

    One lady had her car towed in because it was making weird noises. We checked a few basic things first, then started it to see what the noise sounded like and the exhaust system spit out a whole bunch of nasty sludge and smoke but wouldn't actually run.

    Turns out, she thought the opening to add gas was the opening to add everything. When she first started having problems, she dumped oil, antifreeze, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid in there to "make sure it wasn't running low on fluids."

    Reminds me of this gem.
