  1. New page (64, p1) plucked from Ebay.... Gotta Love Conquest!
  2. From your lips to Kirkmans ears, yo. I guess I feel a little differently. I kinda feel like comics in general these days have all turned into a giant speculation machine. With sooooo many titles headed for either tv or the big screen, it's gotta be on everyone's (collectors) minds when something comes out. Seriously. I haven't even read Chrononauts yet, came out 2 days ago, and it's already picked up. Hopefully Kirkman is going to pimp the hell outta Invincible Universe. The prevalent thought on Millar's books + media deals is that it doesn't really do anything much - even on the short term. Hell, my own thought is that movie or tv news doesn't do much for a book's value long term either. There are exceptions (Walking Dead is always an exception in almost every category), but in general, that's how I feel about it. The giant speculation machine is just that....giant. There is a maximum amount of TV/Movie announcements that the secondary market can handle before the impact on prices diminishes. It has already started. Millar is the Tyler Perry of Comics.... just less annoying and way more talented.
  3. They could have done all this by season 3. The farm season drug on and the governor season drug on. Seems like they are killing people off in absurd ways. Now walkers can walk silently (Tyreese) and the way Noah went out. They should have been smarter than that. It's not an action show. It's a drama. The character development is top notch. Well said sir... going too fast would make this a show not as appealing. Eventually there will be episodes without walkers just like a couple issues of the comics had no walkers. Action all the time gets boring fast... look at the last Hobbit movie.
  4. So Norman Redus will be appearing on the season finale of "The Talking Dead"... any chance he dies in the series finale of the show? When you think about it... it might be a good trick. Just tell everyone that he is going to be on the show and no one will EVER think he is going to die since he was announced as a guest versus "surprise cast member."
  5. Who will be the mystery guest on Talking Dead tonight... Sasha? Daryl? Carrol? My guess.... Morgan. (You can't tease his characters return without having him return).
  6. Invincifans shared this on Facebook... it was too great not to share on the boards! An issue of Invincible was used as a prop was The Walking Dead this week.
  7. Maybe this was the Easter Egg? ...and shame on those that don't know what Invincible is!
  8. :shrug: I didnt see the show yet.....who do you think will die? Well, the priest was just on the show, so I can't see it being him... how about Morgan? No, there's still some story there, it seems, unless that story wraps up next week. Otherwise, I don't really know... maybe Noah? -slym I don't think anyone dies... I think Morgan comes back to the show as a regular and he is the special guest on The Talking Dead
  9. So Douglas Monroe will be played by a woman.... I guess I'm ok with it.
  10. Agree Ditto. Easy for you to say Tyler, you're getting buried with the best Mark and Eve cover. I'd rate 58 over the TPB cover, but I'd rate certain trade covers over a lot of single issue covers. This cover sold for less than the Dinosaurus solo cover. I'd rate a cover with a happy Mark and Eve, and Nolan and Debbie over that. Edited to add that Tyler also has the second best Mark and Eve cover..... Forgot about that part, and also probably figure that you'll end up getting the #118 cover. So you'll have three of the probably 5 best covers with them. Allow me to chime in... Ryan's art work on the TPB covers is sick! I think that is what makes the covers valuable. On most, if not all, TPB covers you get a full scale image of Mark/Invincible with a couple more characters scattered in the background. Great! Awesome! Clearly collectable and valuable! The best thing a TPB cover has going for it versus a splash page, like most covers, is the art work is "cover quality" and its a "cover"! <- If that makes sense. In other comic series the TPB cover vs single cover argument would easily go to the single covers but with Ryan and the Invincible TPB cover's the argument is a little more tuff to find a right or wrong answer. Some single issue covers are more simple that the TPB covers, adding more fuel to the fire. I think anyone that is has the OA to any cover is lucky. Cover's are the top of the food chain for OA collectors and in general, if you ask any OR collector he would tell you single issue covers have more "collectable value" than TPB covers. But again, I will say this might not be the case with Ryan Ottley and Invincible... I think it is more of an even race in this case. My personal opinion is that single issue covers for the more part are more collectable and valuable. A single issue cover that is tied to a major event, character first appearance, or character death is something a TPB can never claim. On another note.... I recently bought my first Invincible cover from Ryan's website. I bought #39. WOOT WOOT! I could have bought a TPB cover with multiple characters but my thinking was... this is an EARLY single issue cover. Versus buying a more recent cover or more recent TPB cover... I put more weight on that older item. AND the space ship took Ryan 4 days to draw and is FREAKING AWESOME!
  11. Loved this episode and I'm so glad Rick and the group have made it to Alexandria. I am very excited to see the next couple episodes play out. I am predicting a dramatic, Rick looks in to a mirror and shaves he beard scene in the next ep. Will they attend the Friday night dance/dinner party soon? I wonder how long the TV show group will call Alexandria home? The rest of season 5 of course. Season 6 and 7? More? The Alexandria story arc lasts a long time in the comics... and it is technically still going. Has our TWD cast found their home finally?
  12. Was I the only one that thought the scene where the walkers tried to get into the barn and all the group members holding the barn door from opening was A DREAM SEQUENCE? They show Daryl waking up right after that scene was over do they not?
  13. HOLY F$$$$ING .... LOVE THAT COVER! IF THEY KILL BATTLE BEAST WE RIOT (just kidding, Battle beast dying at the hands of Thragg would make it a worthy death).
  14. Not me... any idea if Ryan will be putting someone else on ebay soon?
  15. Noah's mom was killed by Negan... her head was bashed in with Lucille. Negan and his crew are responsible for the neighborhood being looted and the crazy limbless corpses.
