    That is why I try to get double covers when finances allow or will try to get the same artist/related artist to cover.   With me lately its been just too damn economical to get Ash to do it and I trust him with my books.  I certainly get the argument that he is unknown and may devalue the work of a known artist but its my book and can do with it what I please.  I would argue that I have increased value to the piece.  For example I bought the Lenil Daredevil piece off the boards at a 9.6, it went through several price drops solely based upon the grade.  I paid little to add the artwork and color to the piece and now its a 9.8 and have four different PM asking if I would sell it and two with offers well over what I paid for the 9.6.......I am not selling it but it stands to reason that I was correct in my assessment.  I caught hell at ECC two years ago for letting Alex Sinclair color my Mignola Hellboy sketch......like I colored over a Picasso.  It came out beautiful but by many that was an act of sacrilege.  I get the purists and I have many pieces that will remain quite simple but some I want to enhance the way I choose......I am not flipping books......just love the hobby.  I know I am preaching to the choir with you.   

    Grades don't bother me as much as it does some. I just didn't have the funds at the time dude was selling :cry: 

    I also copped flack when I brought up the idea to have my Phil Noto sketch colored. But I'm of the opinion the right colorist can enhance the right piece..

    Awful.  Everyone will regret this Monopoly in the future.  Nothing good ever comes of this. 

    So WB owning all the DC IPs also a "monopoly"

    Did they ever reveal where the Avengers moved in Spider-Man Homecoming / who bought the Avengers tower?

    Either I missed that part or they're saving that info for this.

    IIRC the new Avengers HQ was first shown at the end if AOU. Tho i dont know who purchased the Stark/Avenger tower.

     Wouldn't think it would change next years movies before Infinity War.  Easy explanation is Wanda somehow winds up with the gauntlet, or one of the appropriate gems, and after losing Quicksliver and Vision, uses her hex powers in addition to the gem(s) and rewrites the fabric of the universe.  All characters are now in the same world, sets up Hulk vs Thing, Wolverine vs Hulk and or Wolverine vs Cap (cap annual 8 cover on the big screen) and some interesting possibilities for the future going forward.  If it gets Hugh back for a movie or 3, sets up some classic comic scenarios, Disney makes their $ back quickly and easily.  

    Some fun times ahead, boys and girls. 

    Cue mid-credit scene after infinity war where a beaten cap/avengers team looks up and sees a silhoutte of the blackbird and several shadowy figures jump out to join the fight..

    Wow! That's a good question. Although there may be a transition period where Disney has Fox wrap up any in-flight work.

    I guess with the current x-men franchise set in the past, we might see them all being re-casted to join the current MCU. Tho Deadpool/RR might be easy enough to integrate 

  6. If/when this goes through, anyone have thoughts on what it would mean for the movies that have finished filming and slated to drop next year? Would we see rewrites & reshoots for intergration under the marvel studios/mcu umbrella?

    Big fan of Stevens. Cant wait for my Galactus from him to arrive!

    Love the last Galactus that he did, if that ones yours. Tho ive noticed a few of them coming back from him are taking grade hits. Guessing its the same issue as mine w/dirty back cover?
